with
He Sent His Son
Scripture:
Doctrine & Covenants 110:4
“I am the first and the last; I am he who liveth, I am he who was slain; I am your advocate with the Father“
Song:
He Sent His Son, Children’s Songbook page 34
Lesson:
Angels appeared to humble shepherds, announcing the birth of Jesus Christ. The shepherds were invited to go and see the baby Jesus. The Messiah, the King of Kings had been born.
We still celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ with gratitude for His life, His mission, and His sacrifice for us. His promises bring us peace and His love fills our hearts. At Christmastime, and throughout the coming year, may we find ways to give gifts to our Savior and share His love with those around us.
Reflect on the lessons you’ve learned about Jesus Christ this year as you’ve studied the Doctrine & Covenants. How has your testimony of Jesus Christ grown?
Quote:
“We bear testimony, as His duly ordained Apostles—that Jesus is the Living Christ, the immortal Son of God. He is the great King Immanuel, who stands today on the right hand of His Father. He is the light, the life, and the hope of the world. His way is the path that leads to happiness in this life and eternal life in the world to come. God be thanked for the matchless gift of His divine Son.” The Living Christ, paragraph 13
