And ye also say that Christ shall come.

But behold, I say that ye do not know that there shall be a Christ.

And ye say also that he shall be slain for the sins of the world —

Alma 34:8

And now, behold, I will testify unto you of myself that these things are true.

Behold, I say unto you, that I do know

that Christ shall come among the children of men,

to take upon him the transgressions of his people,

and that he shall atone for the sins of the world;

for the Lord God hath spoken it.

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.
