Alma 34:9, 16, 31



Alma 34:9

For it is expedient that an atonement should be made;

for according to the great plan of the Eternal God

there must be an atonement made, or else all mankind must unavoidably perish;

yea, all are hardened;

yea, all are fallen and are lost, and must perish

except it be through the atonement which it is expedient should be made.



Alma 34:16

And thus mercy can satisfy the demands of justice,

and encircles them in the arms of safety,

while he that exercises no faith unto repentance

is exposed to the whole law of the demands of justice;

therefore only unto him that has faith unto repentance

is brought about the great and eternal plan of redemption.



Alma 34:31

Yea, I would that ye would come forth and harden not your hearts any longer;

for behold, now is the time and the day of your salvation;

and therefore, if ye will repent and harden not your hearts,

immediately shall the great plan of redemption be brought about unto you.
