We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.
Fairly self explanitory. We belive that because of the fall of adam we live in a sin stained world, that has been made that way because of the choices of man. Therefore we are not responsible for Adam, we are responsible for us and all that we preside over and do not have an "origonal sin" we are born with. This is why when we are babtized we wait until we are of an age when we know right from wrong. Generaly 8 years old.
Remeber " Adam fell that men might be and men are that they might have joy" ~2 Nephi 2:25
We "are free to choose liberty and eternal life, through the great Mediator of all men, or to choose captivity and death, according to the captivity and power of the devil; for he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself." ~2Nephi 2:27
Excuse the Spelling!
