Moses 5:7 And then the angel spake, saying: This thing is a similitude of the sacrifice of the Only Begotten of the Father, which is full of grace and truth.
All things point to our Savior and His role in the plan of Salvation. With eyes to see we can celebrate this far more in our lives.
Moses 6:54 Hence came the saying abroad among the people, that the Son of God hath atoned for original guilt, wherein the sins of the parents cannot be answered upon the heads of the children, for they are whole from the foundation of the world.
It's always impressive to me how often we learn that there is no need to baptize little children, infants, because Jesus' atonement already provides for them. there is no 'original guilt'. I think this word is more fitting and correct than original sin. Which I suppose there was an original sin in partaking of the fruit. Although we call it a transgression.
A of F 1:3 We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
I am reminded as I read/write this verse that there is no "Atonement" without Christ. It is His, it is Him. Any reference to the Atonement must be referenced with the Savior.
