You mean that when God commanded Abinadi to testify boldly against Noah and his priests that there wasn't an understanding that Abinadi would die in the process? Did God say "oops"?

Should we be any less appalled that God required Joseph Smth, Abinadi, Phillip, Paul, John the Baptist and many, many others seal their testimonies with their own blood than we should be that God...
