2 Nephi 2:10

And because of the intercession for all,

all men come unto God;

wherefore, they stand in the presence of him, to be judged of him

according to the truth and holiness which is in him.

Wherefore, the ends of the law which the Holy One hath given,

unto the inflicting of the punishment which is affixed,

which punishment that is affixed is in opposition

to that of the happiness which is affixed,

to answer the ends of the atonement —

2 Nephi 2:15

And to bring about his eternal purposes in the end of man,

after he had created our first parents,

and the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air,

and in fine, all things which are created,

it must needs be that there was an opposition;

even the forbidden fruit in opposition to the tree of life;

the one being sweet and the other bitter.
