For, if I have learned the truth, there have been disputations among you concerning the baptism of your little children. Mormon explained why baptism of children was a serious error. For immediately after I had learned these things of you I inquired of the Lord concerning the matter. He then explained who should be baptized. And their little children need no repentance, neither baptism.
Behold baptism is unto repentance to the fulfilling the commandments unto the remission of sins.
Mormon explained that children needed no baptism because God is fair and just. Wherefore, if little children could not be saved without baptism, these must have gone to an endless hell. For awful is the wickedness to suppose that God saveth one child because of baptism, and the other must perish because he hath no baptism. That is, Mormon said that because children are too young to be accountable for their actions, God treats all children equally and is thus just and fair. He went on to explain that children are clean because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
