Behold, I say unto you, that I do know that Christ shall come among the children of men, to take upon him the btransgressions of his people, and that he shall catone for the sins of the world for the Lord God hath spoken it.ĩ For it is expedient that an aatonement should be made for according to the great bplan of the Eternal God there must be an atonement made, or else all mankind must unavoidably perish yea, all are hardened yea, all are cfallen and are lost, and must perish except it be through the atonement which it is expedient should be made.ġ0 For it is expedient that there should be a great and last asacrifice yea, not a bsacrifice of man, neither of beast, neither of any manner of fowl for it shall not be a human sacrifice but it must be an cinfinite and deternal esacrifice.ġ1 Now there is not any man that can sacrifice his own blood which will atone for the sins of another.
