Alma Ch60

Moroni has words with Pahoran about the lack of support the government is giving the war, and because of the wickedness, righteous people are slain. It takes great power and means from the Nephites to fight off the Lamanites, basically all that can do to win. Then Moroni threatens the government!
Yay another epistle to interpret! This one is from Moroni to Pahoran and the rest of the government:
    "Hey all you in charge, you're not doing your job very well. You were appointed to govern the affairs of the war and gather men, weapons, and provisions to support the armies as we fight with the Lamanites, but both Helaman's and my army have suffered from hunger, thirst, and fatigue (v1-3). This is unacceptable and for a long time I didn't complain but this has to stop because it is causing many Nephite deaths when they could have been prevented if they had the strength to stand and fight (v4-5).
     "All I want to know is why you have neglected your duties? Are you just sitting on your thrones in a thoughtless state of stupor while the war rages and kills many young men who have looked to you for protection (v6-8)? Our soldiers have fought with all their strength despite their lack of provisions because they support the cause of liberty and love their people enough to go into battle and defend their freedom (v9-10). Let me tell you something, God knows. He knows all your actions and neglect, and He has heard the cries of the people. If you think that you'll be delivered just because He is a merciful God, or those who have died were all just wicked, think again. God receives the righteous who have died because He allows them to be slain to bring judgment on the wicked which is you because you're lazy (v11-14).
    "Because of your lack of support, the Lamanites have gained power over us; don't you remember the stupid fight I had to come break up between the king-men and the freemen (v15-16)? Those king-men were seeking authority and caused much turmoil while the Lamanites attacked many cities and captured many Nephites making them suffer, but was that just the king-men's desire or do you desire authority too (v17-18)? It could be that, or it could be that you don't think we are all in trouble because your cooped up in a safe place and don't realize our hardship (v19). You've either forgotten the captivity of our fathers or you suppose the Lord is just going to deliver us without any effort like he has in the past (v20-21).
     "Either way there is no excuse for your idleness. Hear me when I say that God will not look upon you as guiltless because He has said that the inward vessel shall be cleansed first (v22-23). Think on that because you must repent and start supporting the armies with supplies because we cannot continue to fight the armies of the Lamanites with no support (v24). That being the case, I'm giving you an ultimatum. You either start helping or I'm going to leave my army to come down there and extinguish the desire for authority among you so that you can focus on wanting to gain freedom for the people (v25-27).
     "Let me be very clear, I'm not afraid of you or what you could have done to me with your authority. I answer to God and God only. It is for Him I fight and if it so be that I must fight you to bring to pass the freedom of this people, I won't hesitate because He straight up told me to take you down if you can't repent of your iniquities (v28-33). I'm going to give you a little while to get your act together so the Lord will once again turn his judgment against the Lamanites, that being said, if you don't send some help quick, I'm going to come take it by force (v34-35).
      "I'm the chief captain but I do not seek for power, but to pull it down. I glory in God, freedom, and the welfare of my people. ~Moroni"
I hope you can sense the anger and threats coming from Moroni because he is ticked off! We will hear the response in next chapter and you might be surprised.
