“Condemned and Punished According to the Law”

Brant Gardner

These prisoners, like Moroni’s, could honorably accept either alternative, although one alternative meant death or some other form of punishment. As in the earlier case, their honor dictated that they could accept salvation only if they actually accepted the conditions of the salvation. They could not lie and be saved.
