Alma 34:9
9 For 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.
Without Christ’s atonement, all mankind would be lost, would eventually perish and then become as Satan. Jesus’ atonement began in Gethsemane, continued on the Cross (Jesus’ altar of sacrifice), and culminated with the Resurrection. All phases of His atonement are vital, expedient, important, and necessary or the Savior’s infinite and eternal sacrifice would not take effect. Man is by nature carnal, sensual, and devilish, but the Savior’s atonement cleanses us from our natural ways and make us saints. Jesus atonement was like no other. His atonement affects all from all earths that have been created, that are being created this moment, and all that will yet be created by Elohim or any other exalted person who creates worlds by virtue of he being an exalted individual who is married to an eternal companion. Jesus’ atonement was infinite and eternal.
