Teach them that
redemption cometh
through Christ the Lord.
Only Jesus Christ Saves
And now,
ought ye not to tremble
and repent of your sins,
and remember that
only in and through Christ
ye can be saved?
Victory through Jesus Christ
And now
if Christ had not come into the world,
there could have been no redemption.
And if Christ had not risen from the dead,
or have broken the bands of death
that the grave should have no victory,
and that death should have no sting,
there could have been no resurrection.
But there is a resurrection,
therefore the grave hath no victory, and
the sting of death is swallowed up in Christ.
He is the light and the life of the world;
yea, a light that is endless,
that can never be darkened; yea,
and also a life which is endless,
that there can be no more death.
Eternal life through Christ
Were it not for the redemption
which he hath made for his people,
which was prepared
from the foundation of the world,
I say unto you, were it not for this,
all mankind must have perished.
But behold,
the bands of death shall be broken,
and the Son reigneth,
and hath power over the dead;
therefore, he bringeth to pass
the resurrection of the dead.
And there cometh a resurrection,
even a first resurrection;
yea, even a resurrection of those
that have been, and who are, and who shall be,
even until the resurrection of Christ—
for so shall he be called.
And now, they are raised to dwell with God
who has redeemed them;
thus they have eternal life through Christ,
who has broken the bands of death.
The Atonement of Jesus Christ
I would that ye should understand
that God himself shall come down
among the children of men,
and shall redeem his people.
And because he dwelleth in flesh
he shall be called the Son of God,
and having subjected the flesh
to the will of the Father,
being the Father and the Son—
The Father, because he was
conceived by the power of God;
and the Son, because of the flesh;
thus becoming the Father and Son—
And they are one God,
yea, the very Eternal Father
of heaven and of earth.
And thus the flesh becoming
subject to the Spirit,
or the Son to the Father, being one God,
suffereth temptation,
and yieldeth not to the temptation,
but suffereth himself to be
mocked, and scourged, and cast out,
and disowned by his people.
And after all this,
after working many mighty miracles
among the children of men,
he shall be led, yea, even as Isaiah said,
as a sheep before the shearer is dumb,
so he opened not his mouth.
Yea, even so he shall be
led, crucified, and slain,
the flesh becoming subject even unto death,
the will of the Son being swallowed up
in the will of the Father.
And thus God breaketh the bands of death,
having gained the victory over death;
giving the Son power to
make intercession for the children of men—
Having ascended into heaven,
having the bowels of mercy;
being filled with compassion
towards the children of men;
standing betwixt them and justice;
having broken the bands of death,
taken upon himself their iniquity
and their transgressions,
having redeemed them,
and satisfied the demands of justice.
Redemption through Christ
Were it not for the atonement,
which God himself shall make
for the sins and iniquities of his people,
they must unavoidably perish.
And there could not any man be saved
except it were through
the redemption of God.
For behold,
did not Moses prophesy unto them
concerning the coming of the Messiah,
and that God should redeem his people?
Yea, and even all the prophets
who have prophesied
ever since the world began—
have they not spoken more or less
concerning these things?
Have they not said that God himself
should come down
among the children of men,
and take upon him the form of man,
and go forth in mighty power
upon the face of the earth?
Yea, and have they not said also
that he should bring to pass
the resurrection of the dead,
and that he, himself,
should be oppressed and afflicted?
Christ should come
And a prophet of the Lord
have they slain; yea,
a chosen man of God,
who prophesied of
many things which are to come,
yea, even the coming of Christ.
And because he said unto them
that Christ was the God,
the Father of all things,
and said that he
should take upon him
the image of man,
and it should be the image
after which man was created
in the beginning.
And now, because he said this,
they did put him to death.
Christ Omnipotent
I would that ye should be
steadfast and immovable,
always abounding in good works,
that Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent,
may seal you his,
that you may be brought to heaven,
that ye may have everlasting
salvation and eternal life,
through the wisdom, and power,
and justice, and mercy
of him who created all things,
in heaven and in earth,
who is God above all.
Born again through Christ
And now, because of
the covenant which ye have made
ye shall be called the children of Christ,
his sons, and his daughters;
for behold, this day
he hath spiritually begotten you;
for ye say that your hearts are changed
through faith on his name;
therefore, ye are born of him and
have become his sons and his daughters.
And under this head ye are made free,
and there is no other head
whereby ye can be made free.
There is no other name given
whereby salvation cometh;
therefore, I would that ye should
take upon you the name of Christ,
all you that have entered into
the covenant with God
that ye should be obedient
unto the end of your lives.
And it shall come to pass
that whosoever doeth this
shall be found at the right hand of God,
for he shall know the name
by which he is called;
for he shall be called by the name of Christ.
And now it shall come to pass,
that whosoever shall not
take upon him the name of Christ
must be called by some other name;
therefore, he findeth himself
on the left hand of God.
Peace through Jesus Christ
The Spirit of the Lord
came upon them,
and they were filled with joy,
having received
a remission of their sins,
and having peace of conscience,
because of the exceeding faith
which they had in Jesus Christ.
Mercy through the blood of Christ
And they all cried aloud
with one voice, saying:
O have mercy, and apply
the atoning blood of Christ
that we may receive
forgiveness of our sins,
and our hearts may be purified;
for we believe in
Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Know the Savior
The time shall come
when the knowledge of a Savior
shall spread throughout
every nation, kindred,
tongue, and people.
No other name but Christ
There shall be no other name given
nor any other way nor means
whereby salvation can come
unto the children of men,
only in and through
the name of Christ,
the Lord Omnipotent.
Through the atonement of Christ
The natural man
is an enemy to God,
and has been
from the fall of Adam,
and will be, forever and ever,
unless he yields to
the enticings of the Holy Spirit,
and putteth off the natural man
and becometh a saint
through the atonement
of Christ the Lord
The atoning blood of Christ
Little children are blessed;
for behold, as in Adam,
or by nature, they fall, even so
the blood of Christ atoneth for their sins.
And moreover, I say unto you,
that men drink damnation to their own souls
except they humble themselves
and become as little children,
and believe that salvation was, and is, and is to come,
in and through the atoning blood of Christ,
the Lord Omnipotent.
Joy in Christ
The Lord God hath sent
his holy prophets
among all the children of men,
to declare these things
to every kindred,
nation, and tongue,
that thereby whosoever should
believe that Christ should come,
the same might receive
remission of their sins,
and rejoice with
exceedingly great joy.
Salvation only through Christ
Salvation cometh to none
except it be through
repentance and
faith on the Lord
Jesus Christ.
The Son of God
Awake, and hear the words
which I shall tell thee;
for behold,
I am come to declare unto you
the glad tidings of great joy.
For behold, the time cometh,
and is not far distant,
that with power,
the Lord Omnipotent who reigneth,
who was, and is
from all eternity to all eternity,
shall come down from heaven
among the children of men,
and shall dwell in a tabernacle of clay,
and shall go forth amongst men,
working mighty miracles,
such as healing the sick,
raising the dead,
causing the lame to walk,
the blind to receive their sight,
and the deaf to hear,
and curing all manner of diseases.
And he shall cast out devils,
or the evil spirits
which dwell in the hearts
of the children of men.
And lo, he shall suffer temptations,
and pain of body,
hunger, thirst, and fatigue,
even more than man can suffer,
except it be unto death;
for behold,
blood cometh from every pore,
so great shall be his anguish
for the wickedness and
the abominations of his people.
And he shall be called
Jesus Christ, the Son of God,
the Father of heaven and earth,
the Creator of all things
from the beginning;
and his mother shall be called Mary.
And lo, he cometh unto his own,
that salvation might come
unto the children of men
even through faith on his name;
and even after all this
they shall consider him a man,
and say that he hath a devil,
and shall scourge him,
and shall crucify him.
And he shall rise
the third day
from the dead;
and behold,
he standeth
to judge the world;
and behold,
all these things are done
that a righteous judgment
might come upon
the children of men.
Redemption through Christ
And my prayer to God
is concerning my brethren,
that they may once again
come to the knowledge of God,
yea, the redemption of Christ
Salvation and Redemption in Christ
And now, I would that
ye should come unto Christ,
who is the Holy One of Israel,
and partake of his salvation,
and the power of his redemption.
Yea, come unto him,
and offer your whole souls
as an offering unto him,
and endure to the end;
and as the Lord liveth
ye will be saved.
Look forward unto Christ
The prophets,
and the priests,
and the teachers,
did labor diligently,
exhorting with
all long-suffering
the people to diligence,
persuading them
to look forward
unto the Messiah,
and believe in him
to come as though
he already was.
The truth is in Christ
I must preach and
prophesy unto this people,
and declare the word
according to the truth
which is in Christ.
And I have declared it
in all my days,
and have rejoiced in it
above that of the world.
In Christ's name
Whatsoever thing ye shall ask in faith,
believing that ye shall receive
in the name of Christ,
ye shall receive it.
Forgiven through Christ
And there came
a voice unto me, saying:
Thy sins are forgiven thee,
and thou shalt be blessed.
And I knew that
God could not lie;
wherefore,
my guilt was swept away.
And I said: Lord,
how is it done?
And he said unto me:
Because of thy faith in Christ.
Deny not the Christ
And he said: I fear
lest I have committed
the unpardonable sin,
for I have lied unto God;
for I denied the Christ,
and said that I believed
the scriptures;
and they truly testify of him.
