Inequality Leads to Iniquity: The Essence of Mosiah 29 – Alma 4
Keywords
inequality, iniquity, moral corruption, Book of Mormon teachings
Abstract
The crux of Mosiah 29 through Alma 4 is the subtle but persistent message of truth:
Inequality leads to iniquity and iniquity leads to inequality.
Iniquity is inequality.
Inequality is iniquity.
When we delve into the origin of the words inequality and iniquity we discover that they are based on the same word. The words inequality and iniquity are simple variants of the same word.
Why does this matter for understanding the Book of Mormon?
And why are these two words so heavily concentrated in Mosiah 29-Alma 4?
