"The Pearl of Great Price tells details of the life of Adam and Eve, their creation, and ministry. It explains too how, before the world was made, the Christ was chosen as the Redeemer, to bring about the redemption upon which the whole plan of God is based, and that plan included the fall of Adam.
For man to progress, he had to become mortal. It was according to God's eternal plan. Mortality was accomplished through the fall of Adam. Hence Jesus, in our preexistent state accepted the overall plan of the Eternal Father, including the fall, volunteered himself as the Redeemer, and prepared even then to accomplish our redemption."
-Elder Mark E. Peterson
