“Lifted Up upon the Cross” by Jeffrey R. Holland

40 Day General Conference Challenge DAY 24

TALK: "Lifted Up upon the Cross” by Jeffrey R. Holland

NAME OF CHRIST:

“It is one of the most powerful paradoxes of the Crucifixion that the arms of the Savior were stretched wide open and then nailed there, unwittingly but accurately portraying that every man, woman, and child in the entire human family is not only welcome but invited into His redeeming, exalting embrace.”

-Jeffrey R. Holland

QUOTE ABOUT JESUS CHRIST:

“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints considers the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ to be the central fact, the crucial foundation, the chief doctrine, and the ultimate expression of divine love in God’s grand plan for the salvation of His children.”

-Jeffrey R. Holland

SCRIPTURE:

“And thus the work of the Lord did commence among the Lamanites; thus the Lord did begin to pour out his ​​​Spirit​ upon them; and we see that his arm is extended to ​​​all​ people who will repent and believe on his name.”

-Alma 19:36

INSPIRING QUOTE:

“To be a follower of Jesus Christ, one must sometimes carry a burden—your own or someone else’s—and go where sacrifice is required and suffering is inevitable. A true Christian cannot follow the Master only in those matters with which he or she agrees. No. We follow Him everywhere, including, if necessary, into arenas filled with tears and trouble, where sometimes we may stand very much alone.”

-Jeffrey R. Holland

INVITATION TO ACT:

“To obtain such blessings, may we follow Him—unfailingly, never faltering nor fleeing, never flinching at the task, not when our crosses may be heavy and not when, for a time, the path may grow dark.” 

-Jeffrey R. Holland

A PROMISED BLESSING:

“This day I bear apostolic witness of Him who was “lifted up” and of the eternal blessings He bestows to those “lifted up” with Him, even the Lord Jesus Christ.”

-Jeffrey R. Holland

REFLECTION QUESTION:

  • When have I stood alone in my beliefs?

LEARNING STYLE STUDY IDEA:

VISUAL LEARNERS: Find your favorite picture of the crucifixion to study. Print a copy to add to your conference journal.

MY THOUGHTS:

What a great reminder to follow the Savior everywhere!! We get to follow Jesus Christ and go to places to help others come unto Him. We are reminded of the crucifixion of our Savior in so many places–look for this reminder everywhere!–Erin
