Mormon Dilemma 859 Blood Atonement for Thieves and Apostates

Journal of Discourses 1:73; “…the best way to sanctify ourselves, and please God our heavenly Father in these days, is to rid ourselves of every thief, and sanctify the people from every vile character…It would have a tendency to place terror on those who leave these parts [Utah], that may prove their salvation when they see the heads of thieves taken off, or shot down before the public… I believe it would be pleasing in the sight of heaven to sanctify ourselves and put these things out of our midst.” – Orson Hyde, Salt Lake City, April 9, 1853

Hebrews 10:26, 30; “For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins  30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.”

Hebrews 12:14; “Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord”.

Hebrews 13:12, 15; “Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. 15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.”

Do the words of Orson Hyde sound anything remotely similar to what God tells us in His word?  Of course not!

If what he’s said doesn’t align with what God says then why has the Church extolled this man the way they have?  Everything Mr. Hyde has commanded the followers of Mormonism to do is exactly the opposite of what God has said.
