4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood,
astriving against sina.
5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he
achasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

6a Ye have not yet resisted unto blood,
striving against sin What is it which Christ underwent in the
performance of the atonement in the Garden of Gethsemane that night? The pain
of suffering which causes a man to bleed from every pore. Christ has stated
that this suffering caused him, even God, to tremble because of pain, and
to bleed at every pore, that it was to suffer borth body and spirit (D&C
19:18). That is the whole being, the very soul doeth suffer in such
circumstance.
