3 Nephi 1
I wonder if there will be a specific prophecy – where the timing of the prophecy is within memory – where the unbelievers will argue that it has not been fulfilled and gloat over those who believe the words of the prophets. Certainly there will be times when those who do not believe will ridicule those who believe (that happens even now) but I wonder if there will be a specific instance such as this one in Nephite history. Immediately after the obvious fulfilling of the prophecies Satan began spreading rumors to make the miracles seem less than miraculous and the prophecy less than prophetic. For a while the lies and rumors were not very effective – most people still believed what they had witnessed.
