Alma 34:11

Now there is not any man that can sacrifice his own blood

which will atone for the sins of another.

Now, if a man murdereth,

behold will our law, which is just, take the life of his brother?

I say unto you, Nay.

Alma 34:12

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.
