He and the other prophets of The Book of Mormon, who called themselves the visionary men and the peaceable followers of Christ, knew and practiced a mystery, an ordinance by which they ascended through the temple and entered into the presence of God.

The book of Judges is the seventh book of the Christian Old Testament and the Hebrew Bible. It contains several stories that are cyclical in nature. The stories give various examples of where the Israelites have shown a lack of faith and as a result suffer from great oppression.
