The Redeemer and Savior

Christ is our redeemer and our Savior. Except for him there would be the salvation and no redemption and unless men come unto him and accept him as their savior, they can not have eternal life in his presence. The gospel plan is the way which is ordained whereby men may come to him and find salvation. It is incumbent upon us, therefore to accept him as our redeemer and in accordance with the laws he has ordained come unto him so that we may gain a hope of eternal life. What is this great plan of redemption which he has ordained? Adam fell that man might be. Men are that they might have joy and the Messiah cometh in the fullness of time, that he may redeem the children of men from the fall. Temporal death is a condition that attends mortality. Mortal beings have corruptible bodies that decay. Spirit and body eventually are separated and we call this "the natural or temporal death." To be cast out of the presence of the Lord and to die as to the things of righteousness or of the spirit is "spiritual death." Redemption is thus both temporal and spiritual. It is temporal for all men in that they are raised in immortality. It is spiritual for those who obey the gospel law in that they are raised in immortality unto eternal life. Christ atonements offered to all who believe and obey. Eternal damnation must come to them that believes not, for they can not be redeemed from their spiritual fall because they repent not. The resurrection of Christ brings to pass the resurrection of all men, who believes, to allow the Holy Spirit to resurrect unto them.
