Alma 42:6, 8, 9

Alma 42:6

But behold, it was appointed unto man to die —

therefore, as they were cut off from the tree of life

they should be cut off from the face of the earth —

and man became lost forever,

yea, they became fallen man.

Alma 42:8

Now behold, it was not expedient

that man should be reclaimed from this temporal death,

for that would destroy the great plan of happiness.

Alma 42:9

Therefore, as the soul could never die,

and the fall had brought upon all mankind a spiritual death as well as a temporal,

that is, they were cut off from the presence of the Lord,

it was expedient that mankind should be reclaimed from this spiritual death.
