Moroni 8:22

For behold that all little children are alive in Christ,

and also all they that are without the law.

For the power of redemption cometh on all them that have no law;

wherefore, he that is not condemned,

or he that is under no condemnation, cannot repent;

and unto such baptism availeth nothing —
