Alma 12

(March 24, 2014)
It is funny how a mortal can look on the size and the scope of the universe, and can firmly understand the utter impossibility of someone to save themselves from the impending slow death of the universe (or even their own imminent death), and yet somehow come away thinking of themselves as the source of their own salvation.  I could no more save myself than I could fly to Pluto.  And that is true for each and every man, woman, and child on this planet.  If we cannot even make it to Pluto on our own, what makes us believe that we can get to Heaven on our own.

The Atonement is infinite because our need for it is infinite.
