The Atonement of Jesus Christ: Understanding the Mystery, Becoming One

Forward

Introduction

The atonement is the most incomprehensible, spectacular and universe-changing event throughout all of time and space. 

For thousands of years the Atonement has baffled even the greatest of scholars.  Many religious leaders have declared it to be incomprehensible or stated that we can’t understand it in this life.

These statements are inaccurate but could easily be corrected by saying that the atonement will not be understood without a new revelation. That revelation has come…

We want to be very clear that the atonement as explained in this book is not a guess or a theory based on research.  It is the atonement as taught to us directly by Christ over multiple visitations, through visions and other special experiences.  This book attempts to teach the atonement as it was taught to us by Christ.

If you are familiar with Elliaison, you know that the Elliaison contributors are a number of independent people who have received their calling and election made sure, received the second comforter and have been visited and taught directly by Jesus Christ and other heavenly beings.

Of the many lessons we have received from Christ, none are as powerful, enlightening and life changing as “The Atonement”. He taught us the mechanics of how and why it works, the reason Jesus suffered and died, how the atonement allows us to be forgiven of sin and makes us free from the judgement and punishment of the law/sin and the ultimate purpose and goal of the atonement.  

Although many of us have been raised Christian and learned about the atonement from our youth, we were shocked and amazed at how simple and powerful the atonement really is.  We were told that the information shared in this book was lost to the world and is now being revealed again for the first time in two thousand years.

This book has been written under the direction of Christ with His blessing and encouragement to share with the world the revelations that make sense of what was the most incomprehensible act of love in the history of mankind.   

Using the Holy Scripture as references as well as personal revelation, visions and direct quotes from Christ, Elliaison contributors have shown as best they can. They will walk you  step by step and principle by principle through the atonement showing how the atonement is possible with new insights and deeper meaning.

The principles by which the atonement works are so simple and true that they are used in our own legal system today.  We have found that people from backgrounds as diverse as Atheists, Muslims, and Buddhists can accept the principles as valid, powerful and worth teaching to others.  

The true and correct understanding and application of the atonement has the power within its understanding to unite the world and bring about the Millennium of peace by uniting all religions, races, and belief systems.  That is why it was so named “The At-One-Ment.”  But, the deep mysteries were lost to the sincere followers of Jesus Christ…  Until now.  

Many people have believed they understood and applied the atonement in their lives, but in fact, they were doing the exact opposite. 

The information in this book is a threat to the core tenets and beliefs of some Christian religions who lack or reject information essential to comprehending Christ’s mission, teachings and role.  As a result, some contributors of this book have received death threats from those who would stop at nothing to prevent you from reading the information in this book.

For example, you will read about a random protestant preacher in Las Vegas who once told some Elliaison contributors, “If I knew who you were, I would do anything to stop this information from being released, even if I had to spend the rest of my life in jail.”

What is more interesting is that all this happened just as Christ prophesied to us that it would during one of his lessons.

If understood and accepted, the deeper lessons behind the atonement as taught by Christ will remove the very power by which Satan reigns with blood and horror on the earth.

What is the goal of this book?

This book has been written with the sole intent of providing this information to the world with the hope that by correctly understanding the atonement the reader will be touched in their heart and transformed into a peace-loving child of God. That, as He desires, His Kingdom may be on earth as it is in Heaven. 

In short, this book is intended to help us understand, accept and complete the atonement in our own lives, thereby making us more like Christ. The principles and concepts taught in this book will be invaluable in understanding Christ’s main message, and preparing for the return of Zion and the beginning of the Millennium of peace.

Do people really receive these types of blessings and talk about it?

YES!  Elliaison Contributors have each received the blessings they are writing about.  They each have been instructed by God to share with others their experiences and wisdom to help others to receive the same. They each feel that the Elliaison effort is a good way to do that.

Although there are some occasions in which individuals have been told not to share their experiences, or what they learned in their experiences, this is not the norm. Just as sharing your testimony of Jesus Christ only encourages faith and is required for missionary work, so too, witnessing your personal experiences of Jesus Christ, angels, miracles and other blessings promotes faith and encourages others to rise to greater plateaus. This is a major reason we read the scriptures, which are largely the experiences and witnesses of those who have had such experiences and shared them.  If they hadn’t shared them, then we wouldn’t be blessed to know about them.

As the reader, you are able to judge if the things taught in this book are revelations from God or the workings of man. 

“And again, he that receiveth the word of truth, doth he receive it by the Spirit of truth or some other way?

20 If it be some other way it is not of God.” – D&C 50:19-20

With this understanding firmly in place, we would like to point out to you that while this book is informative and provides a great deal of insight, revelation and new information, it cannot and does not replace or supersede the need for your own personal revelation.  

This means that you should not believe what you read in this book, (or any other), without receiving the witness of the Holy Ghost on each point, having your own direct connection to God.  Only by the powerful witness of the Holy Ghost can you learn for yourself what is true.

President Brigham Young said:

“There are those among this people who are influenced, controlled, and biased in their thoughts, actions, and feelings by some other individual or family, on whom they place their dependence for spiritual and temporal instruction, and for salvation in the end.  These persons do not depend upon themselves for salvation, but upon another of their poor, weak, fellow mortals.  I do not depend upon any inherent goodness of my own, say they, to introduce me into the kingdom of glory, but I depend upon you, brother Joseph, upon you, brother Brigham, upon you, brother Heber, or upon you, brother James; I believe your judgment is superior to mine, and consequently I let you judge for me; your spirit is better than mine, therefore you can do good for me; I will submit myself wholly to you, and place in you all my confidence for life and salvation; where you go I will go, and where you tarry there I will stay; expecting that you will introduce me through the gates into the heavenly Jerusalem….Now those men, or those women, who know no more about the power of God, and the influences of the Holy Spirit, than to be led entirely by another person, suspending their own understanding, and pinning their faith upon another’s sleeve, will never be capable of entering into the celestial glory, to be crowned as they anticipate; they will never be capable of becoming Gods. They cannot rule themselves, to say nothing of ruling others, but they must be dictated to in every trifle, like a child. They cannot control themselves in the least, but James, Peter, or somebody else must control them, They never can become Gods, nor be crowned as rulers with glory, immortality, and eternal lives. They never can hold scepters of glory, majesty, and power in the celestial kingdom. Who will? Those who are valiant and inspired with the true independence of heaven, who will go forth boldly in the service of their God, leaving others to do as they please, determined to do right, though all mankind besides should take the opposite course.” – Brigham Young

Why do you cast your pearls before swine?

It is our hope that if you are reading this book, you are not swine. Jesus encourages us saying,

“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.” – Matthew 7:6

This is sound advice and warning.  There certainly are pigs out there.  You can always tell who the swine are in a group because if you cast your pearls out, they do exactly what they are predicted to do.

To those who are acting like swine, we say, “You don’t have to be swine, it’s your choice.”

It is always easy to recognize the pigs by how they treat personal and sacred things shared with them.  That does not reflect poorly on those who stuck their neck out for the benefit of others and shared their sacred things, neither does it make the pearls they shared less valuable or beautiful.  It only reflects poorly on the pigs who don’t know how to appropriately handle the pearls they have been given.

Jesus warned that these dogs would not only trample the pearls under their feet, but they would “turn again and rend you.” This is what happened to Jesus himself.  And it is certainly what is likely to happen to us as well.

Some of the Elliaison contributors have already received death threats intended to prevent the information shared in this book from being released to the masses.  While some will find the information in this book to be refreshing, enlightening and powerful, others will react in fear and anger, which will lead them to do the most terrible things.

Christ taught saying,

27 ¶But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,

31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.

33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.

35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: – Luke 6

Indeed, if people really believed and lived Jesus’ teachings, they would not have killed him no matter how much they disagreed with him or hated him.  One of the ways we can recognize a true Christian is the way in which they treat their enemy. 

“By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” – John 13:35

We expect that as a result of this book there will be many who call themselves Christians but show themselves to be devils.

If we truly love them that we call our enemies and bless them, then we are children of the Highest and show ourselves to be true Disciples of Christ.  

This book will challenge your views and understanding of the atonement and your life as a disciple of Christ. We pray that you will humbly and prayerfully consider the information presented. Search the scriptures and see for yourself if the answers we present have not been hiding right in front of you the whole time.     

Authors Note

The Elliaison Group is comprised of various individuals and couples who have each had many wonderful and powerful experiences. These individuals do not want personal fame or attention, but they do want to share many of the things which they have learned and experienced for the benefit of others.

This book was written by various people who each have contributed to the content and shared their own personal experiences in this book. At present, each of the authors has decided to remain anonymous.  

This has presented us with the difficult challenge of trying to share personal experiences without divulging which author is sharing the experience. Finding that the use of fictitious names for each of the authors required a central narrator who referenced the individual authors, which greatly affected the book’s flow and entirely negated the united voice intended by the authors. We have mutually agreed to author this book as Elliaison and share our individual testimonies and experiences as a united and single voice as though we were “One” person.  

We have each reviewed the content and presentation of information in this book and fully support its publication. If at some future time any one of the individuals or couples who shared their experiences as authors wish to take personal credit for any experience shared, they are free to do so, and at their request, Elliaison or an agent for Elliaison will provide a statement acknowledging such claims.  

Why do you choose to remain anonymous?

Who we are is not important and ultimately has no real bearing on the message or information given in this book. Truth stands on its own and false notions fall to truth. Truth is not determined by who said it, what credentials they hold, nor by what positions or accolades they have earned.  Some of the greatest truths have come by the lowly and simple. This has been proven time and again throughout our history.

It doesn’t really matter who said it, if E=MC2 is true, then we could learn it from a highly educated and accredited physicist or from a simple patent clerk like Albert Einstein.  Truth is truth regardless of who reveals it.

But why remain anonymous?

There are several reasons that each of the Elliaison contributors have for remaining anonymous. But each of the Elliaison contributors understands and realizes the following:

  1. Death Threats – We are particularly fond of living.  We have families and loved ones. We have roles and missions which could be interrupted abruptly by a well-intended but greatly misguided assassin. Many of us have received revelations which concluded with a warning that some people would be willing to kill us to prevent this information from being shared.  In this book, you will learn truths that some people are willing to kill to keep from you. We could not fulfill our commission to share this information and protect ourselves and our families without remaining anonymous. 
  2. Fame and Notoriety – It is truly our hope that the majority of our readers will find the information presented in this book to be profound, life changing, uplifting and wonderful.  We have waited and prepared for almost 20 years for the right time to present the revelations and information given in this book. We hope to positively impact the lives of many people. Yet, we want to be able to go to the grocery store without attracting attention from people who love or hate us. We don’t want people to follow us around hanging on every idle word we say. We want people to go to God and not us. Remaining anonymous avoids many problems and issues that arise from fame and notoriety. One cannot become famous nor take personal pride or credit when their name remains unknown.

Revelation and Scripture

 While the revelations came first, we found that nearly everything we were taught by Jesus could be found in the scriptures. We just couldn’t see it or understand it until after the revelation was given. 

In many cases, the scriptures that confirmed what we had been taught were ones that we were already familiar with and knew, but now we were seeing them in an entirely different way. In some instances, we didn’t find the scriptures that taught or supported the revelation until more than fifteen years after the revelation. 

For the sake of the reader, we will teach the revelations and then include the supporting scriptures and other references we have discovered so far.

Final Note

When you are under the influence of the spirit, great amounts of information can be exchanged in a single moment. In many instances with Christ, the communication was telepathic, mixed with visions and always filled with love and the spirit of peace. 

He led us along, teaching us to see things we had previously rejected because of apparent contractions with things we had learned and accepted growing up. 

It’s difficult to adequately detail the experiences and all the information that is transferred through the spirit by revelation. 

As we write this book, we realize that at times we are quoting Christ, but because the communication was telepathic and communicated via pure thought, without words, we must do the difficult task of translating thoughts and feelings into words. Even though we are quoting Christ, we are doing so in our own words and this is very different from quoting Christ when he crystalized a thought in his own words, which is a true direct quote from Christ.

In this book, to distinguish the difference between an author speaking for Christ in their own words and a direct quote from Christ, we will do the following:

“This is what it looks like when an author is quoting Christ using their own words.” – Jesus Christ

“This is what it looks like when the author is quoting Christ directly using Christ’s own words.” – Jesus Christ

And, without Further Ado, we present…
