near

with their

Ezek. 33: 31
.
31 And they come unto thee as the people cometh, and they sit before thee
as
my people, and they
a
hear
thy words, but they will not do them: for with their

they shew much love,
but
their heart goeth after their
c
covetousness
.
Alma 34: 28

28 And now behold, my beloved brethren, I say unto you, do not suppose that this is all; for after ye have done all these things, if ye
a
turn
away the
b
needy
, and the
c
naked
, and visit not the sick and afflicted, and
d
impart
of your substance, if ye have, to those who stand in need—I say unto you, if ye do not any of these things, behold, your
e
prayer
is
f
vain
, and availeth you nothing, and ye are as
g
hypocrites
who do deny the faith.
D&C 45: 29
.
29 But they
a
receive
it not; for they perceive not the light, and they turn their
b
hearts
from me because of the
c
precepts
of men.
