Gordon B. Hinckley—Chapter 24: The Atonement of Jesus Christ: Vast in Its Reach, Intimate in Its Effect
Teacher: Barbara Janke
“I bear witness [of] the Atonement of the Lord Jesus Christ. Without it life is meaningless. It is the keystone in the arch of our existence. ”
· Our Heavenly Father’s love is expressed in the gift of His Only Begotten Son.
“Everything depended on Him—His atoning sacrifice. That was the key. That was the keystone in the arch of the great plan which the Father had brought forth for the eternal life of His sons and daughters.”
· Through the Savior’s redeeming sacrifice, all people will rise from the grave.
“The miracle of that resurrection morning …is a miracle for all mankind. It is the miracle of the power of God, “
· Through the Savior’s atoning sacrifice, we are offered the opportunity of exaltation and eternal life.
“Are we not all prodigal sons and daughters who need to repent and partake of the forgiving mercy of our Heavenly Father and then follow His example?”
“I wish for each of you a time, perhaps only an hour, spent in silent meditation and quiet reflection on the wonder and the majesty of this, the Son of God.”
Weekly Challenge: Give a gift to the Savior this year by performing at least one act of service each week until we meet again in January.
