Wherefore, we speak concerning the law
that our children may know the deadness of the law;
and they, by knowing the deadness of the law,
may look forward unto that life which is in Christ,
and know for what end the law was given.
And after the law is fulfilled in Christ,
that they need not harden their hearts against him
when the law ought to be done away.
(2 Nephi 25:27)
