 “It would appear unnecessary to cite at great
length in substantiating our affirmation that
Jesus Christ was God even before He assumed a
body of flesh.” J C page 38

4. The Preexistence CHRIST “The Being who is known
among men as Jesus of
Nazareth…existed with the
Father prior to birth in the
flesh; and that in the

8. 1 Nephi 11: MARY THE MOTHER OF JESUS
• 15. And I said unto him; A virgin, most beautiful and
fair above all other virgins.
• 16. And he said unto me; knowest thou the
condescension of God?
• 18. And he said unto me; behold the virgin whom thou
seest is the mother of the Son of God, after the
manner of the flesh.
• 19. And it came to pass that I beheld that she was carried
away in the spirit; and after she had been carried away in
the Spirit for the space of a time the angel spake unto
me, saying; Look!
• 20. And I looked and beheld the virgin again, bearing a
child in her arms.
• 21. And the angel said unto me; Behold the lamb of
God, yea, even the son of the Eternal Father!

9. God, who is infinite and
immortal, condescends to step
down from his throne, to join
with one who is finite and
mortal in bringing forth, "after
the manner of the flesh," the
Mortal Messiah.
(the Mortal Messiah by McConkie Vol 1 Chap 1)

10. Jesus Christ was to be born of mortal
woman, but was not the offspring of
mortal man….In our Lord alone has
been fulfilled the word of God spoken in
relation to the fall of Adam, that the
seed of the woman (JESUS) should
have power to overcome Satan by
bruising the serpent’s head.” JC 82
Had the Jews been in power at the time of the Birth of
Jesus Christ, He, Jesus Christ would have been the King of
the Jews through the lineage of his Mother, Mary and/or
through the lineage of the man whom everyone thought
to be His father, Joseph. They were cousins and were the
heirs of the royalty of the House of David.

Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth, even the Spirit of truth, which
came and dwelt in the flesh, and dwelt among us.
 12 And I, John, saw that he received not of the fullness at the first, but
received grace for grace;

at the first.

descended upon him in the form of a dove, and sat upon him, and there came a

strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the
grace of god was upon him.

sitting in the midst of doctors…all that

and as a root out of dry ground; he hath no form nor
comeliness; and when we shall see him there is no
beauty that we should desire him.
 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows,
and acquainted with grief; and we hid as it were our faces
from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
 4 Surely he has borne our grief's, and carried our sorrows;
yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and
afflicted.
 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was
bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace
was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

17. 1. As the one and only sinless MAN
2. As the Only Begotten of the Father and
therefore the only Being born to earth possessing
in their fullness the attributes of both Godhood
(ability to resist death) and manhood;
3. As the one who had been chosen in the heavens
and foreordained to this service
What other man has been without sin, and therefore

Body and Spirit, a free gift to all mankind from
Jesus Christ
ETERNAL LIFE:
What is it? EXALTATION WITH THE FATHER, THE

Resurrection and Final Judgment.

20. JESUS CHRIST HAS AGREED
TO PAY THE PRICE OF OUR
SINS by HIS SUFFERING IF
WE WILL TAKE UPON US HIS
NAME AND IF WE WILL KEEP
HIS COMMANDMENTS
D & C 19: 15 Therefore I command you to repent—repent, lest I smite
you by the rod of my mouth, and by my wrath, and by my anger, and
your sufferings be sore—how sore you know not, how exquisite you
know not, yea, how hard to bear you know not.
16 For behold, I, God, have suffered these things for all, that
they might not suffer if they would repent
17 But if they would not repent they must suffer even as I;
18 Which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to
tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both
body and spirit—and would that I might not drink the bitter cup, and
shrink—

21. "17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father."
JOHN 10:
17 Therefore doth my Father love me,
because I lay down my life, that I might
take it again.
18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it
down of myself. I have power to lay it
down, and I have power to take it again.
This commandment have I received of
my Father."

22. JUSTICE: And (Jesus) shall go forth, suffering pains and afflictions
and temptations of every kind; and this that the word might be fulfilled
which saith he will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his
people. And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands
of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their
infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the
flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people
according to their infirmities. Now the spirit knoweth all things;
nevertheless the son of God suffereth according to the flesh that he
might take upon him the sins of his people, that he might blot out their
transgressions according to the power of his deliverance; and now
behold, this is the testimony which is in me. Alma 7:11-13
MERCY:
2 Nephi 25:23 For we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all
we can do.

23. Jesus Christ in Gethsemane

24. Mark 14: Mark said he was “sore amazed, …and
very heavy.”
Jesus said: “My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto
death…
“And he…fell on the ground, and prayed… Abba,
Father, all things are possible unto thee; take
away this cup from me; nevertheless not what I
will, but what thou wilt” 34-36
Savior cried out from the cross “My God, my
God, why hast thou forsaken me?” Mathew 27:46
His atoning sacrifice accepted, our Redeemer
prayed, “Father into thy hands I commend my
spirit” Luke 23:46

25. James D. Talmadge James E. Talmadge states of

26.  The Angel said to the women at the tomb:
“Fear not ye; for I know that ye seek Jesus,
which was crucified. He is not here; for he
is risen, as he said. Come, see the place
where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and
tell his disciples that he is risen from the
dead; and behold, he goeth before you into
Galilee; there shall ye see him; lo, I have
told you.” Matt 28:5-7
Peter and John came to the tomb and found him not: “For as
yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from
the dead.” EVEN the apostles did not understand or believe
in the resurrection.

27.  While yet living Jesus testified: “Verily, verily I say
unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the
dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they
that hear shall live. For as the Father hath life in
himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in
himself; and hath given him authority to execute
judgment also, because he is the Son of man. Marvel
not at this; for the hour is coming, in the which all
that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and shall
come forth; they that have done good, unto the
resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto
the resurrection of damnation. John 5:25-29
 Missionary labor among the dead was inaugurated by
the Christ; who of us can doubt that it has been
continued by His authorized servants. J the C 675

28. After all that Christ had taught concerning His
rising from the dead on that third day, the
apostles were unable to accept the actuality of
the occurrence; to their minds the resurrection
was some mysterious and remote event, not a
present possibility. Jesus the Christ 683

29. On the first week of April in the 34th year, there arose a tempest in the
New World and a voice which said: “Behold, I am Jesus Christ the Son of
God. I created the heavens and the earth, and all things that in them
are. I was with the Father from the beginning.
“Behold, for such I have laid down my life, and have taken it up again;
therefore repent, and come unto me ye ends of the earth, and be saved.”
Christ had risen; and following Him many of the righteous dead on the
western continent rose from their graves and appeared as resurrected,
immortalized being among the survivors of the land wide destruction;
even as in Judea many of the Saints had been raised immediately after
the resurrection of Christ.” JC 724

30. “About six weeks or more after the events last considered (the voice of
the Lord to the Nephites) a great multitude of the Nephites had
assembled at the temple in the land called Bountiful, …they heard a
sound as of a Voice above.
Behold my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased, in whom I have
glorified my name; hear ye him.” JC 725
Jesus appeared to the Nephites at Bountiful and said: Behold I am
Jesus Christ, whom the prophets testified shall come into
the world; and behold, I am the light and the life of the
world; and I have drunk out of that bitter cup which the
Father hath given me, and have gloried the Father in taking
upon me the sins of the world, in the which I have suffered
the will of the Father in all things from the beginning.”
Jesus Christ made similar visits to his OTHER SHEEP.

31. Thus a gift from Jesus the
Christ to all mankind.
The resurrection consists in the uniting of a
spirit body with a body of flesh and bones,
never again to be divided.
The resurrection shall come to all, because
of Christ’s victory over death.
Jesus Christ had a power Jesus Christ was the first to be resurrected
