Alma 33 - 36

After Alma had spoken, Amulek stands up and without pulling any punches says -

"...I think that it is impossible that ye should be ignorant of the things which have been spoken concerning the coming of Christ, who is taught by us to be the Son of God; yea, I know that these things were taught unto you bountifully..." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:2)

He then tells the Zoramites -

"...we have beheld that the great question which is in your minds is whether the word be in the Son of God, or whether there shall be no Christ." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:5)

He follows that not only the scriptures testify of Christ, but -

"...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." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:8)

All men must understand that -

"...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." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:9)

Amulek uses the example -

"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.
12 But the law requireth the life of him who hath murdered..." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:11 - 12)

The demands of justice must be satisfied. And Amulek teaches the means and conditions by which mercy may satisfy justice -

"...For it is expedient that there should be a great and last sacrifice; yea, not a sacrifice of man, neither of beast, neither of any manner of fowl; for it shall not be a human sacrifice; but it must be an infinite and eternal sacrifice." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:10)

That is -

"...the whole meaning of the law, every whit pointing to that great and last sacrifice; and that great and last sacrifice will be the Son of God, yea, infinite and eternal." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:14)

Jesus is the Christ!

"...thus he shall bring salvation to all those who shall believe on his name; this being the intent of this last sacrifice, to bring about the bowels of mercy, which overpowereth justice, and bringeth about means unto men that they may have faith unto repentance.
16 And thus mercy can satisfy the demands of justice..." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:15 - 16)

And to those who do not satisfy the conditions for mercy, that is -

"...he that exercises no faith unto repentance is exposed to the whole law of the demands of justice..." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:16)

"...Therefore may God grant unto you, my brethren, that ye may begin to exercise your faith unto repentance, that ye begin to call upon his holy name, that he would have mercy upon you..." (Book of Mormon Alma 34:17)
