Shared words: the church of the devil

'the church of the devil' stands at exactly these two frozen verses. The revelation uses the term without defining it; the definition — a two-church division — is Nephi's, treated on two-churches.md. Whether the revelation intends Nephi's scheme is not stated in either text and is not supplied.
