Atonement

SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Luke 24:5-7

"And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again."


 
Thomas S. Monson
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Thomas S. Monson

"Our Mediator, our Redeemer, our Brother, our Advocate with the Father died for our sins and the sins of all mankind. The Atonement of Jesus Christ is the foreordained but voluntary act of the Only Begotten Son of God. He offered His life as a redeeming ransom for us all.

"His mission, His ministry among men, His teachings of truth, His acts of mercy, His unwavering love for us prompts our gratitude and warms our hearts" ("They Showed the Way," Ensign, May 1997).

 
ARTICLE: Jessie Knight: "Obtain riches . . . for the intent to do Good" (Jacob 2:19)

Perhaps the most unique thing about Jesse Knight is the way he used his money.  During a period of high unemployment in the area, he kept a useless mine shaft in operation just so the miners could take home a paycheck.
