The Seventy's Course in Theology, Fourth Year: The Atonement
Roberts, B. H. (Brigham Henry)
Latter Day Saint churches -- Doctrines
[Footnote C: Jesus Christ not only Divine but Deity. See Lecture by
the writer, "Mormon Doctrine of Deity," Ch. iv.]
[Footnote D: "Ye know that ye were not redeemed by corruptible things,
* * but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without
blemish, and without spot" (I Peter i:18, 19). All the victims in the
sacrifices under the law which typified the Christ were required to be
perfect, spotless, without blemish, foreshadowing that he, too, who was
to atone for man's sin would be without fault.]

upon all men unto justification of life." (Rom. v:12, 18.)_
