How does the principle of wisdom and order apply to giving alms to the poor?

Thomas R. Valletta

“A group or individual who seeks to lead people away from Christ by denying Christ (e.g., Jacob 7:2; Alma 30:6, 12; Alma 31:16, 29), or offering an alternative to Christ and his plan of salvation (e.g., Jacob 7:7; Alma 1:4; 15:15; 30:16–17). Anti-Christs in the Book of Mormon include three prominent individuals: Sherem (Jacob 7:1–23), Nehor (Alma 1:2–16), and Korihor (Alma 30:6–30), as well as several groups of people, such as the Ammonihahites, the Amalekites and Amulonites, and the Zoramites. Typically, flattery, false logic, and deception are employed to deny Christ (Jacob 7:2, 4). … Anti-Christs attempted to deceive not only the people in general but even prophets and men of great faith (Jacob 7:5; Alma 1:7; 30:30)” (Largey, Book of Mormon Reference Companion, 66–67).
