102 And also, if there was no law given against sin, men would not be afraid to sin;

103 And if there was no law given, if men sinned, what could justice do? or mercy either? For they would have no claim upon the creature.

104 But there is a law given, and a punishment affixed, and repentance granted, which repentance mercy claimeth; Otherwise, justice claimeth the creature and executeth the law, And the law inflicteth the punishment; If not so, the works of justice would be destroyed and God would cease to be God.

105 But God ceaseth not to be God, And mercy claimeth the penitent, And mercy cometh because of the atonement; And the atonement bringeth to pass the resurrection of the dead, And the resurrection of the dead bringeth back men into the presence of God.

106 And thus they are restored into His presence, to be judged according to their works, according to the law and justice; For behold, justice exerciseth all his demands, And also mercy claimeth all which is her own; And thus, none but the truly penitent are saved.

107 What! Do ye suppose that mercy can rob justice? I say unto you, nay, not one whit; If so, God would cease to be God!

108 And thus God bringeth about His great and eternal purposes which were prepared from the foundation of the world.

109 And thus cometh about the salvation and the redemption of men, And also their destruction and misery. Therefore, O my son, whosoever will come, may come and partake of the waters of life freely;

110 And whosoever will not come, the same is not compelled to come, But in the last day it shall be restored unto him according to his deeds -

111 If he hath desired to do evil and hath not repented in his days, Behold, evil shall be done unto him, according to the restoration of God.

112 And now my son, I desire that ye should let these things trouble you no more, And only let your sins trouble you with that trouble which shall bring you down unto repentance.
