“Nevertheless They Are Cursed with a Sore Cursing”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

The wickedness of this people caused the Spirit of the Lord to be withdrawn, bringing upon themselves a curse, in contrast to the blessings of heaven so freely being poured out upon the heads of the righteous. All who live in a state of rebellion are heirs to such a curse. A mark of that curse among the Lamanites was a dark skin.
