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.
