Unit 4: Jesus Christ as Our Savior
Chapter 11: The Life of Jesus Christ
Comments and Resources

'President David O. McKay stated: "The gospel teaches that Christ is the Son of God, the Redeemer of the world.  No true follower is satisfied to accept him merely as a great Reformer, the ideal Teacher, or even as the one perfect Man.  The Man of Galilee is not figuratively, but literally, the Son of the living God." (Gospel Ideals, P. 46)

During the study of this topic, we will review some of the highlights of the Savior's Life and ways in which his life is a model of our own life.

Chapter 11: The Life of Jesus Christ
Concept 1: Introduction

'Every Person who comes to earth depends on Jesus Christ to fulfill the promise He made in heaven to be our savior.  Without him, the  whole plan of salvation would have failed.  Because his mission was necessary, all of the prophets from Adam to Christ testified that he would come (Acts 10:43 "To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.").   All of the prophets since Christ have testified that he did come.  All of us need to study the life of the Savior and follow him faithfully throughout our lives.  We each need to have a personal relationship with him.'


Concept 2: The Life of Christ Was Predicted Long Before His Birth

'An angel told Adam that the Savior's name would be Jesus Christ (Moses 6:51-52 
"51. And he called upon our father Adam by his own voice, saying: I am God; I made the world, and men before they were in the flesh.  
52. And he also said unto him: If thou wilt turn unto me, and hearken unto my voice, and believe, and repent of all thy transgressions, and be baptized, even in water, in the name of mine Only Begotten Son, who is full of grace and truth, which is Jesus Christ, the only name which shall be given under heaven, whereby salvation shall come unto the children of men, ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, asking all things in his name, and whatsoever ye shall ask, it shall be given you.").  

Enoch saw that Jesus would die upon the cross and be resurrected (Moses 7:55-56  
"55. And it came to pass that Enoch cried unto the Lord, saying: When the Son of Man cometh in the flesh, shall the earth rest?  I pray thee, show me these things.  
56. And he heard a loud voice; and the heavens were veiled; and all the creations of God mourned; and the earth groaned; and the rocks were rent; and the saints arose, and were crowned at the right hand of the Son of Man, with crowns of glory;").  

Noah and Moses also testified of him (Moses 8:23-24  
"23. And it came to pass that Noah continued his preaching unto the people, saying: Hearken, and give heed unto my words;  
24. Believe and repent of your sins and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, even as our fathers, and ye shall receive the Holy Ghost, that ye may have all things made manifest; and if ye do not this, the floods will come in upon you; nevertheless they hearkened not.").  

About eight hundred years before the Savior was born on the earth,  Isaiah foresaw his life.  When Isaiah saw the grief and sorrow that the Savior would suffer to pay the price for our sins, he exclaimed:  
"He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief...

"Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows...

"He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities...

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter"  (Isaiah 53:3-7).

Nephi also saw a vision of the Savior's future birth and mission.  He saw a beautiful virgin, and an angel explained, "Behold, the virgin whom thou seest is the mother of the Son of God, after the manner of the flesh" (1 Nephi 11:18).  Then Nephi saw the virgin  holding a child in her arms.  The angel declared, " Behold the lamb of God, yea, even the Son of the Eternal Father!"  (1 Nephi 11:21).

About 124 years before Jesus was born, King Benjamin, another Nephite prophet and king, also foresaw the Savior's life"

"For behold, the time cometh, and is not far distant, that with power, the Lord Omnipotent who reigneth, who was, and is from all eternity to all eternity, shall come down from heaven among the children of men, and shall dwell in a tabernacle of clay, and shall go forth amongst men, working mighty miracles, such as healing the sick, raising the dead, causing the lame to walk, the blind to receive their sight, and the deaf to hear, and curing all manners of diseases. 

"And lo, he shall suffer temptations, and pain of body, hunger, thirst, and fatigue, even more than man can suffer, except it be unto death; for behold, blood cometh from every pore, so great shall be his anguish for the wickedness and the abominations of his people.

"And he shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning; and his mother shall be called Mary" (Mosiah 3:5-8).'



Concept 3: He Was the Only Begotten of the Father

'The story of the birth and life of the Savior is found in the New Testament in the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.  From their accounts we learn that Jesus was born of a virgin named Mary.  She was engaged to marry Joseph when an angel of the Lord appeared to her.  The angel told her that she was to be the mother of the Son of God.  She asked him how this was possible (Luke 1:34 "Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?").  He told her, "The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God" (Luke 1:35).  Thus, God the Father became the literal father of Jesus Christ.

Jesus is the only person on earth to be born of a mortal mother and an immortal father.  That is why he is called the Only Begotten Son.  From his mother he inherited mortality and was subject to hunger, thirst, fatigue, pain, and death.  He inherited divine powers from his Father.  No one could take the Savior's life from him unless He willed it.  He had power to lay it down and power to take up his body again after dying.
(John 10:17-18 "17. Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.  
18. No man may 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.")

Discussion

Luke 1:34-35: "34. Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?  
35. And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God."

Why was Jesus Christ known as the Only Begotten of the Father?
What did he inherit from his Father?'



Concept 4: He Led a Perfect Life

'From his youth, Jesus obeyed all that was required of him by our Heavenly Father.  Under the guidance of Mary and Joseph, Jesus grew much as other children grow.  He loved and obeyed the truth.  Luke tells us, "And the child grew and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him." (Luke 2:40).

By the time he was twelve years old, Jesus knew he had been sent to do the will of his Father.  He went with his parents to Jerusalem.  When his parents were returning home, they discovered that he was not with their group.  They went back to Jerusalem to look for him. "After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.  And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers" (Luke 2:46-47).   Joseph and Mary were relieved to find him but unhappy that he had treated them so.  Mary said: "Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us?  Behold, thy father [Joseph] and I have sought thee sorrowing."  Jesus answered her gently, reminding her that Joseph was only a stepfather:  "Wist ye not that I must be about my [Heavenly] Fathers business?"  (Luke 2:48-49).

In order to fulfill his mission, Jesus was to do the will of his Father in Heaven.  "I do nothing of myself," he declared, "but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things... I do always those things that please him" (John 8:28-29).

When Jesus was thirty years old, he came to his cousin John to be baptized in the Jordan River.  John was reluctant to baptize Jesus because he knew that Jesus had never sinned.  Jesus asked John to baptize him in order "to fulfill all righteousness."  John did baptize the Savior, immersing him completely in the water.  When Jesus was baptized, his Father spoke from heaven, saying,  "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."  The Holy Ghost descended, as shown by the sign of the dove. 
(Matthew 3:13-17 "13  Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.  
14. But John forbade him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?  
15. And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer [it to be so] now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.  
16. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:  
17. And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.".)

Soon after Jesus' baptism, Satan came to him to tempt him.  He wanted Jesus to fail his mission.  If Satan could get him to commit just one sin, then Jesus would not be worthy to be our Savior, and the plan would fail.  In this way Satan could make us as miserable as he is.  We would never be able to return to our Heavenly Father.

Satan's temptations came after Jesus had been fasting for forty days.  Jesus firmly resisted all these temptations, then commanded Satan to leave.  When Satan was gone, angels came and ministered to Jesus.  
(Matthew 4:1-11. "1. THEN was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.  
2. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.  
3. And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.  
4. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.  
5. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,  
6. And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in [their] hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.  
7. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 
8. Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;  
9. And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.  
10. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 
11. Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.")'

Concept 5:  He Taught Us How to Love and Serve One Another

'After being tempted by Satan, Jesus began his public ministry.  He came to earth not only to die for us but also to teach us how to live.  He taught that there are two great commandments; first, to love God with all our heart, mind, and strength; and second to love others as we love ourselves (Matthew 22:36-39  "36. Master, which [is] the great commandment in the law?  
37. Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 
38. This is the first and great commandment. 
39. And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.").  His life is an example of how we should obey these two commandments.  If we love God, we will trust and obey him, as Jesus did.  If we love others, we will help them meet their physical and spiritual needs.

Jesus spent his life serving others.  He cured them of diseases.  He made the blind see, the deaf hear, and the lame walk.  Once when he was healing the sick, it became late and the people were hungry.  Instead of sending them away, he blessed five loaves of bread and two fish and miraculously was able to feed a multitude of five thousand people.  
(Matthew 14:14-21. "14. And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.  
15. And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.  
16. But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat. 
17. And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.  
18 He said, Bring them hither to me. 
19. And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to [his] disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.  
20. And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.  
21. And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.")  
He taught that whenever we find people hungry, cold, naked or lonely, we should help them all we can.  When we help others, we are serving the Lord. 

(Matthew 25:35-46 "35. For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:  
36. Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.")

Jesus loved others with all his heart.  Often his heart was so full of compassion that he wept.  He loved little children, the elderly, and the humble, simple people who had faith in him.  He loved those who had sinned, and with great compassion he taught them to repent and be baptized.  He taught, "I am the way, the truth, and the life"  (John 14:6). 

Jesus even loved those who sinned against him and were unrepentant.  At the end of his life, as he hung on the cross, he prayed to the Father for the soldiers who had crucified him, pleading, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do"  (Luke 23:34).  He taught, "This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. (John 15:12).

Discussion

What are some of the ways we can show the Lord that we love him?

Matthew 5:48. "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." Is it possible to become perfect in aspects of our own daily lives (such as paying debts, keeping the Sabbath day holy, fasting, keeping the Word of Wisdom)?'



Concept 6: He Organized the Only True Church.

'Jesus wanted his gospel taught to people all over the earth, so he chose twelve Apostles to testify of him.  They were the original leaders of his Church.  They received the authority to act in his name and do the works they had seen him do.  Those who received authority from them were also able to teach, baptize, and perform other ordinances in his name.  After his death, they continued to do his work until the people became so wicked that they killed the Apostles.

Why did Jesus choose the Twelve Apostles?
Mark 3:14-15  "14. And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,  
15. And to have power to heal sickness, and to cast out devils;"

For what purpose were the Apostles ordained?'

Concept 7: He Redeemed Us from Our Sins and Saved Us from Death.

'When his work of teaching and blessing the people was finished, Jesus prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for all the sins of mankind.  He had been condemned to die because he had testified to the people that he was the Son of God.

The night before his crucifixion, he went to a garden called Gethsemane.  There he knelt and prayed.  Soon he was weighted down by deep sorrow and wept as he prayed.  Latter-day Apostle Orson F. Whitney was permitted to see the Savior's suffering in a vision.  Seeing the Savior weep, he said:  "I was so moved at the sight that I also wept, out of pure sympathy.  My whole heart went out to him;  I loved Him with all my soul, and longed to be with Him as I longed for nothing else"  (in Bryant Hinckley, The Faith of our Pioneer Fathers, p. 211).  Jesus "went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt"  (Matthew 26:39).

In a modern revelation the Savior described how great his suffering was, saying it caused him to "tremble because of the pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit" (D&C 19:18).  The awful anguish of taking upon himself every sin that any human being has ever committed went through the Savior's body.  No mortal person can comprehend just how great this burden was.  No other person could have endured such agony of body and spirit,  "He descended below all things ... that he might be in all things and through all things, the light of truth" (D&C 88:6).

But his suffering was not yet complete.  The following day, Jesus was beaten, humiliated, and spit upon.  He was required to carry his own cross up the hill;  then he was lifted up and nailed to it.  He was tortured in one of the cruelest ways men have ever devised.  After nine hours on the cross, he cried out in agony, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"  (Mark 15:34).  In Jesus' bitterest hour, the Father had withdrawn his spirit from him so Jesus could finish suffering the penalty for the sins of all mankind that Jesus might have complete victory over the forces of sin and death.

When the Savior knew that his sacrifice had been accepted my the father, he exclaimed in a loud voice, "It is finished" (John 19:30).  "Father, in to thy hands I commend my spirit" (Luke 23:46).  He bowed his head and voluntarily gave up his spirit.  The Savior was dead.  A violent earthquake shook the earth.

Some friends took the Savior's body to the tomb, where it lay for three days.  During this time his spirit went and organized the missionary work to the other spirits who needed to receive his gospel.
(1 Peter 3:18-20 "18.  For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:  
19. By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;  
20. Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water."; 

(See Also D&C 138).  
On the third day, a Sunday, he returned to his body and took it up again.  He was the first to overcome death.  The prophecy had been fulfilled "that he must rise again from the dead" (John 20:9).

Shortly after his resurrection,  the Savior appeared to the Nephites and established his Church in the Americas.  He taught the people and blessed them.  This moving account is found in 3 Nephi 11 through 28. 
 3 Nephi 11 Jesus Christ did show himself unto the people of Nephi, as the multitude were gathered together in the land Bountiful, and did minister unto them; and on this wise did he show himself unto them. Comprising chapters 11 to 26 inclusive. 
The Father testifies of his Beloved Son Christ appears and proclaims his atonement The people feel the wound marks in his hands and feet and side They cry Hosanna He sets forth the mode and manner of baptism The spirit of contention is of the devil Christ s doctrine is that men should believe and be baptized and receive the Holy Ghost. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 12 Jesus calls and commissions the Twelve He delivers to the Nephites a discourse similar to the Sermon on the Mount He speaks the Beatitudes His teachings transcend and take precedence over the law of Moses Men are commanded to be perfect even as he and his Father are perfect Compare Matthew 5. [A.D. 34] 
 
 3 Nephi 13 Jesus teaches the Nephites the Lord s Prayer They are to lay up treasures in heaven The Twelve in their ministry are commanded to take no thought for temporal things Compare Matthew 6. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 14 Jesus commands: Judge not; ask of God; beware of false prophets He promises salvation to those who do the will of the Father Compare Matthew 7. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 15 Jesus announces that the law of Moses is fulfilled in him The Nephites are the other sheep of whom he spake in Jerusalem Because of iniquity the Lord s people in Jerusalem do not know of the scattered sheep of Israel. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 16 Jesus will visit others of the lost sheep of Israel In the latter days the gospel will go to the Gentiles and then to the house of Israel The Lord s people shall see eye to eye when he brings again Zion. [A.D. 34] 
 3 Nephi 17 Jesus directs the people to ponder his words and pray for understanding He heals their sick He prays for the people, using language that cannot be written Angels minister to and fire encircles their little ones. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 18 Jesus institutes the sacrament among the Nephites They are commanded to pray always in his name Those who eat his flesh and drink his blood unworthily are damned The disciples are given power to confer the Holy Ghost. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 19 The Twelve Disciples minister unto the people and pray for the Holy Ghost They are baptized and receive the Holy Ghost and the ministering of angels Jesus prays using words that cannot be written He attests to the exceedingly great faith of these Nephites. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 20 Jesus provides bread and wine miraculously and again administers the sacrament unto them The remnant of Jacob shall come to the knowledge of the Lord their God and shall inherit the Americas Jesus is the prophet like unto Moses, and the Nephites are children of the prophets Others of the Lord s people shall be gathered to Jerusalem. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 21 Israel shall be gathered when the Book of Mormon comes forth The Gentiles shall be established as a free people in America They shall be saved if they believe and obey; otherwise they shall be cut off and destroyed Israel shall build the New Jerusalem, and the lost tribes shall return. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 22 In the last days, Zion and her stakes shall be established, and Israel shall be gathered in mercy and tenderness They shall triumph Compare Isaiah 54. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 23 Jesus approves the words of Isaiah He commands the people to search the prophets The words of Samuel the Lamanite concerning the resurrection are added to their records. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 24 The Lord s messenger shall prepare the way for the Second Coming Christ shall sit in judgment Israel is commanded to pay tithes and offerings A book of remembrance is kept Compare Malachi 3. [A.D. 34] 
 3 Nephi 25 At the Second Coming the proud and wicked shall be burned as stubble Elijah shall return before that great and dreadful day Compare Malachi 4. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 26 Jesus expounds all things from the beginning to the end Babes and children utter marvelous things which cannot be written Those in the Church of Christ have all things in common among them. [A.D. 34] 

 3 Nephi 27 Jesus commands them to call the Church in his name His mission and atoning sacrifice constitute his gospel Men are commanded to repent and be baptized that they may be sanctified by the Holy Ghost They are to be even as Jesus is. Between A.D. 34 and 35 

 3 Nephi 28 Nine of the Twelve desire and are promised an inheritance in Christ s kingdom when they die The Three Nephites desire and are given power over death so as to remain on the earth until Jesus comes again They are translated and see things not lawful to utter, and they are now ministering among men. Between A.D. 34 and 35 

How do you feel as you ponder the Savior's sacrifice for us?'


Concept 8: What Does the Savior's Life Mean for Us?

'Jesus taught: "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.  Ye are my friends, if you do whatsoever I command you."  (John 15:13-14).  He willingly and humbly went through the sorrow in Gethsemane and the suffering on the cross.

The Savior will have died in vain for our sins if we do not come unto him, repent of our sins, and love him with all our hearts.  He said:

"And this is the gospel which I have given unto you - that I came into the world to do the will of my Father, because my Father sent me.

"and my Father sent me that I might be lifted up upon the cross; and after that I had been lifted up upon the cross, that I might draw all men unto me... that they may be judged according to their works...

"For the works which ye have seen me do that shall ye also do;...

"Therefore, what manner of men ought you to be?  Verily I say unto  you,  even as I am" (3 Nephi 27:13-15, 21, 27).

Imagine that you had a large debt but could not pay it.  How would you feel about a person who offered to pay the debt for you?  Compare this to the sacrifice of Jesus.

Additional Scriptures

2 Nephi 25:12 (the Only Begotten of the Father in the flesh)
But, behold, they shall have wars, and rumors of wars; and when the day cometh that the Only Begotten of the Father, yea, even the Father of heaven and of earth, shall manifest himself unto them in the flesh, behold, they will reject him, because of their iniquities, and the hardness of their hearts, and the stiffness of their necks.

Moses 6:57 (Jesus Christ named as the Only Begotten)
Wherefore teach it unto your children, that all men, everywhere, must repent, or they can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God, for no unclean thing can dwell there, or dwell in his presence; for, in the language of Adam, Man of Holiness is his name, and the name of his Only Begotten is the Son of Man, even Jesus Christ, a righteous Judge, who shall come in the meridian of time.

Moroni 10:4-5
"4. And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost. 
5. And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things."
