Our Lord of Wholeness: The Atonement of Jesus Christ as the Organizing Principle

The Work of Our Lord Jesus Christ is an undertaking so vast,so all-encompassing, that it transcends human comprehension. It is not merely a theological construct that we call the Atonement as an event in time. It also includes the foundational mechanism of eternal union and unity upon which all existence stands. His ministry of mercy embraces the grand organizing principle that weaves together the physical, spiritual, and moral fabric of the universe.At its most elemental core, the Lord’s atoning work is the supreme force that lifts all creation back into the eternal family of God. It is the universal counterforce to entropy, the power that binds together all things in heaven and on earth, transforming dust into glory and mortality into immortality.Without the Savior's personal sacrifice, the word "Atonement" by itself has no real meaning.
