Blood Atonement: The Fatal Occult Ritual of Early Mormonism

from Cults to Consciousness

Deep in the archives of Mormon (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) history, you will find the dark stain of blood atonement. Rather than the sacrifice of Jesus being enough, some sins were too great and would have to be paid for by your own m*rder to gain salvation in the afterlife. Led by a history academic, Julia with  @analyzingmormonism   on instagram, we go through the ways in which early LDS leaders taught and practiced blood atonement. Also covered, are the ways current fundamentalist leaders still implement the horrific practice. Click here to watch on YouTube Follow Julia!
