Atonement of Jesus Christ

The Atonement of Jesus Christ refers to the ransom paid by Christ through His suffering in Gethsemane and His death on the cross, which nullifies the effects of sin. Christ’s atonement allows everyone to be resurrected. For those who repent of their sins, it also opens the way to continued growth and progression through the eternities.
