The end of the discourse returns to the beginning. If the priests of Noah are to truly teach of the law of Moses, they must also teach of the atoning Messiah, "Christ the Lord, who is the very Eternal Father." This last emphasis on the Eternal Father reprises another of Abinadi's arguments, that the atoning Messiah is "God himself [who] shall come down among the children of men, and shall redeem his people." (Mosiah 15:1)
Textual: This concludes Abinadi's discourse. Mormon created a break at this place because he is finished citing Abinadi, and now returns to narrative.
