2 Nephi 1:6 “Wherefore, I, Lehi, prophesy according to the workings of the Spirit which is in me, that there shall none come into 
this land save they shall be brought by the hand of the Lord.”
Proverbs 30:6 “Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.”
In light of Nephi’s prophecy, we have to ask …
Were the slaveholders only doing the Lord’s work?
It’s hard to believe the Lord Jesus would ordain such a thing based on what the Bible says in 1 Timothy 1:9-10 –
“Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine”.
If you’re LDS, what are your thoughts on this?
With Love in Christ;
Michelle
