The Truth of the Cross: 2014 Regional Conference
This session deals with the reason why atonement is necessary. It explains that it is due to the nature of God (His justice, holiness, and righteousness) and the nature of sin (the violation of God's justice and law). Sin puts man at enmity with God, and atonement is what allows us to have peace with God.
