Taking upon Us the Name of Jesus Christ
Elder Dallin H. Oaks
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Elder Oaks explained that taking Christ's name means covenant commitment, service in his Church, accepting his authority, and seeking exaltation.
“This is a holy day for all of Christianity.”
“we renew this covenant”
“The name of God is sacred.”
“our declaration of candidacy for exaltation in the celestial kingdom.”
