...When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!
Joseph Smith—History 1:17
5 And there came a voice unto me, saying: Enos, thy sins are forgiven thee, and thou shalt be blessed.
Enos 1:5
"And I have a work for thee, Moses, my son; and thou art in the similitude of mine Only Begotten; and mine Only Begotten is and shall be the Savior, for he is full of grace and truth;...
Moses 1:6
1 Hearken unto the voice of the Lord your God, while I speak unto you, Emma Smith, my daughter; for verily I say unto you, all those who receive my gospel are sons and daughters in my kingdom.
Doctrine and Covenants 25:1
“I testify to you that God has known you individually … for a long, long time.
He has loved you for a long, long time.
He not only knows the names of all the stars; He knows your names and all your heartaches and your joys!”
“I testify to you that God has known you individually … for a long, long time.
He has loved you for a long, long time.
He not only knows the names of all the stars; He knows your names and all your heartaches and your joys!”
“One simple way we get to know someone is by learning their name.��Jesus knew and called people by name. To ancient Israel, the Lord said, “Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine”…
Just as Jesus knows each of us by name, one way we can come to better know Jesus is by learning His many names. … Many of Jesus’s names are titles that help us understand His mission, purpose, character, and attributes. As we come to know Jesus’s many names, we will come to better understand His divine mission and His selfless character. Knowing His many names also inspires us to become more like Him.”
What are some names or titles of Jesus Christ that teach us more about His character, mission, and attributes?
How might understanding more about His names and titles increase your desire to follow Him?

Our Advocate with the Father

What is an
ADVOCATE?
Questions
3 Listen to him who is the advocate with the Father, who is pleading your cause before him—
4 Saying: Father, behold the sufferings and death of him who did no sin, in whom thou wast well pleased; behold the blood of thy Son which was shed, the blood of him whom thou gavest that thyself might be glorified;
5 Wherefore, Father, spare these my brethren that believe on my name, that they may come unto me and have everlasting life.
Doctrine and Covenants 45:3–5
—President Russell M. Nelson
“Jesus is our Advocate with the Father. The word advocate comes from Latin roots meaning a “voice for,” or “one who pleads for another.” Other related terms are used in scripture, such as intercessor or mediator…
… Comprehending him as our advocate-intercessor-mediator with the Father gives us assurance of his unequaled understanding, justice, and mercy”

1 Hearken, O ye people of my church, to whom the kingdom has been given; hearken ye and give ear to him who laid the foundation of the earth, who made the heavens and all the hosts thereof, and by whom all things were made which live, and move, and have a being.
