This scripture, in my
opinion, has been fulfilled.
27 But behold, if a man
[it could be anyone, or there could be many.] shall come among you and shall say: Do this, [There innumerable things that one could do.] and there is no iniquity; do that and ye shall
not suffer; yea, he will say: Walk after the pride of your own hearts; yea,
walk after the pride of your eyes, and do whatsoever your heart desireth—and if
a man shall come among you and say this, ye will receive him, and say that he
is a prophet.[False prophet. You will believe what he has to say.]
28 Yea, ye will lift him up, [You will hold him in high esteem.] and ye will give
unto him of your substance; [You will pay for costly
tickets to watch him perform. This may have reference to celebrities that you
go to their concerts or attended the sport events.] ye will give unto him of your gold, [ditto] and of your silver, [ditto]
and ye will clothe him with costly apparel; [The
clothing worn by celebrities at televised events are extremlly costly.] and
because he speaketh flattering words [many make their opinions
know to TV.] unto you, and he saith that all is well, then ye will not
find fault with him.
Helaman 13:27 - 28
