"Wherefore, he that fighteth against Zion, both Jew and Gentile, both bond and free, both male and female, shall perish; for they are they who are the whore of all the earth; for they who are not for me are against me, saith our God." (2 Nephi 10:16)
One of the tools that Satan uses is justification. It is OK to tell a LITTLE lie. Taking just ONE pen from the office won't hurt anything. It is easy to trivialize sin, especially when it is something that we want to do. Jacob reminds us, however, that if we are not actively choosing to follow Christ and advance His cause, then we are not with Him. While perfection is an impossible goal to reach in this lifetime, as long as we are honestly doing our best to become like the Savior, we are on the right side of the battle.
