What it Means to Know Christ
A man passed away and was resurrected and waiting in a room to be interviewed. Another man was ahead of him. The door opened, the man entered, the door closed. the interviewer began: I want you to tell me what you know about Jesus Christ.
Well, He was born of a virgin in Bethlehem; He lived thirty three years, spending the last three in His ministry, organizing His church, choosing His apostles to direct it, giving the gospel to direct our lives.
The interviewer stopped him and said: Yes, yes, that's true, but I want you to tell me what you know about Jesus Christ.
Well, He was tortured and crucifiedd that we might have eternal life. Three days later He was resurrected that we might return to our Heavenly Father.
Yes, yes, that is true, but I want you to tell me what you know about Jesus Christ. The man, a little perplexed, again began: Well, He restored the gospel in its fullness to the earth through Joseph Smith, reorganized His church, gave us temples wherein we might do work to save our dead. He gave us family prayer and family home evening where we might unite with our families. He gave us the Priesthood to heal the sick and personal ordinances for out salvation and exaltation.
The interviewer again stopped him and said: All of what you have said to me is true. The man was then invited to leave the room. After he left the door opened and the second man entered. As he approached the interviewer he fell upon his knees and cried "My Lord, My God."
On the violet and white paper it says:
Today I will think of Christ more often and make my prayers more meaningful so that I may come to know Him better.
In the egg, the message is:
Day 1
Sunday: Day of Recognition
Jesus Christ rides through the city gates at Jerusalem and is greeted by followers waving palm fronds as a welcome to their King. He visits the temple...
Read: Matthew 21:6-11
Thought: Would we be one of those who cheered as Christ rode into the city or would we ask, "Who is this?" How well do you know the Savior?
Loves,
Shaylee, Me, and I
Aw. That's so cool! I would so do that!
