This month, I want to study the various names of Christ in more depth. I want to do this in order to feel closer to my Savior and be able to share His light with those around me! Additionally, I want my descendants to know that I believe in Christ, and I strive to draw closer to Him. I think that as I study the names of Christ, I will receive a greater testimony of His ministry and doctrine, as well as feel His love and power more greatly in my own life.
Throughout the next month or so, I will post my insights and thoughts about the significance of the names of Christ. The full post will be on this blog, though I will post snippets to my personal Facebook page for those who don't wish to read the whole post.
In addition to my own personal study and notes, a resource I am relying on is the LDS Bible Dictionary, found at https://www.lds.org/scriptures/bd/christ-names-of?lang=eng. Here are some other sources I will pull from:
-https://www.lds.org/ensign/1978/07/discovery/names-of-christ-in-the-book-of-mormon?lang=eng
-https://byustudies.byu.edu/charts/44-names-used-christ-major-book-mormon-authors
-LDS View version of WordCruncher, which contains an English Parallel Bible so that you can see the original Hebrew/Greek of the Bible, alongside the English translation. You can also look up the original words in a dictionary.
Here we go!
