“Miracles Ceased”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

The greatest of all miracles is the Atonement. Mortal mind cannot fathom or comprehend how one being can assume the burdens and sins of another, much less how one infinitely pure person can take responsibility for the stains of billions of impure persons. Nor can we begin to grasp how one man, Jesus of Nazareth, could take up his physical body in the resurrection and then make immortality available to all who have been tabernacled in flesh. These are the mysteries of godliness. They are the grandest miracles of all time. Mormon is essentially asking, “Since the Atonement has been wrought, the greatest miracle in time or eternity, have miracles ceased, or has Jesus Ceased to minister to us?”
