The Book of Mormon - exploring a word pattern

. . . Pattern Sixteen Christ's atonement:

[552]To come forth by the gift and power of God unto the interpretation thereof.
[553]if there are faults they are the mistakes of men;
[002]he also saw twelve others following him
[003]in that day that they shall rebel against me, I will curse them even with a sore curse ... they shall be a scourge unto thy seed, to stir them up in the ways of remembrance.
[008]the Lord is able to do all things . . . if it so be that they exercise faith in him
[013a]And the angel spake unto me, saying: Thou rememberest the twelve apostles of the Lamb? . . . their garments are made white in his blood
[015]a representation of things both temporal and spiritual; they must be judged of their works . . . also, as to the things which are spiritual
[018]the Lord esteemeth all flesh in one; he that is righteous is favored of God. But behold, this people had rejected every word of God
[021]the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, yieldeth himself, to be lifted up, to be crucified, to be buried in a sepulchre
[022]they crucify the God of Israel . . . turn their hearts aside, rejecting signs and wonders, and the power and glory of the God of Israel
[023]I will not suffer my name to be polluted . . . I will not give my glory unto another
[26]I, Lehi, prophesy according to the workings of the Spirit none come into this land save they shall be brought by the hand of the Lord
[027]ye have accused him that he sought power and authority over you; but he hath sought the glory of God, and your own eternal welfare
[029]he cometh to bring salvation unto men
[030]he offereth himself a sacrifice for sin, to answer the ends of the law . . . how great the importance to make these things known unto the inhabitants of the earth . . . no flesh that can dwell in the presence of God, save it be through the merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah . . . layeth down his life according to the flesh, that he may bring to pass the resurrection of the dead
