Wilfull Rebelling

Mormon 1:16

"And I did endeavor to preach unto this people, but my mouth was shut, and I was forbidden that I should preach unto them; for behold they had wilfully rebelled against their God; and the beloved disciples were taken away out of the land, because of their iniquity."

When we are wicked and unworthy we are not following the prophet. Similarly, when a whole people is wicked and rebelling against God, the Lord takes away the prophet from them and no one is allowed to preach unto them. They no longer have the Spirit of the Lord with them and they are no longer able to feel that warmth and love. This is a sad state, and can only be turned around through true repentance and change of heart.
