The church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints was just fined 5 million dollars by the SEC. Please summarize the story in the style of a scripture from the Book of Mormon: And it came to pass that in the year of our Lord two thousand and twenty-three, there arose a great contention among the people concerning the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its investment arm, which was called Ensign Peak Advisers. For behold, they had amassed unto themselves a great and spacious portfolio of stocks and bonds, even to the amount of thirty and two billion dollars. And they did hide their riches from the eyes of the people by using many shell companies, which were not known unto them. And it came to pass that there was a judge in the land, whose name was SEC, or Securities and Exchange Commission. And he did accuse the church and Ensign Peak Advisers of transgressing the law, which required them to make known their holdings unto all men. And he did fine them five million dollars for their iniquity. And thus we see that the church and Ensign Peak Advisers did repent not of their secret combinations, but did justify themselves before God and men, saying that they had done these things for a wise purpose in him. But behold, many people were offended by their words and deeds, and did murmur against them. And they did cause much sorrow and affliction among the saints.

We Want Nothing Secret Nor Underhanded – Not The Mormon Church Today

John Taylor, the third President of the church, would not recognize the church today. He invites discussion and investigation on even trivial matters. He’s not afraid of research or whack-a-mole. When there was speculation and disagreement about a certain plot of land which Brigham Young was reimbursed for after having personally purchased for the church …
