Alma 42:21, 22

Alma 42:21

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?

Alma 42:22

But there is a law given, and a punishment affixed, and a 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.
