Quote:Alma 34:11 Now there is not any man that can sacrifice his own blood which will atone for the sins of another.
What does this scripture mean? Was not Christ a man? Didn't he sacrifice his won blood and it atoned for the sins of all?
Quote:12 But the law requireth the life of him who hath murdered; therefore there can be nothing which is short of an infinite atonement which will suffice for the sins of the world.
