The Resurrection of Christ
Yea, behold, this death bringeth to pass the resurrection, and redeemeth all mankind from the first death—that spiritual death; for all mankind, by the fall of Adam being cut off from the presence of the Lord, are considered as dead, both as to things temporal and to things spiritual.
But behold, the resurrection of Christ redeemeth mankind, yea, even all mankind, and bringeth them back into the presence of the Lord.
--Book of Mormon Helaman 14:16-17
The resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ redeems all mankind, and brings them back into the presence of the Lord. Our sins separate us from Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost due to our unworthiness, but their love is still there for us and they are desirous for us to repent and come unto them. As we do so, then we draw nearer to them and they to us through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, through the shedding of His atoning blood.
