Does the Bible say this? No.

Here is God according to the critics here:

God: "Do you believe in the atonement of Jesus Christ?"

MC (mainstream Christian) & LDS: "Yes"

God: "That is good, for the power of my Son's atonement is the power unto salvation." "Where did it happen?

MC: "On the cross."

LDS: "Both on the cross and in the garden."

God: "MC, go to Heaven. LDS, go to Hell."

Read Romans 5:11 please but know that Christ SHED his blood on the cross. In the Garden it says, his sweat was as it were, great drops of blood. An elephant is as it were a camel, capable of carrying heavy loads. An elephant is not a camel, and blood is NOT sweat!
