Section 74 of the Doctrine and Covenants gives an explanation of the issue regarding circumcision. Parts of the New Testament state that circumcision is no longer needed because it was part of the Law of Moses which has been fulfilled. D&C s 74 therefore provides more clarity on the issue. Circumcision is not needed for the salvation of little children because they are naturally clean and holy, being sanctified through the atonement of of Jesus Christ.
