Gems-Teachings: "In Your Behalf and in Mine"

[invitingspirit]

"Surely the most majestic moment of that fateful Friday, when nature convulsed and the veil of the temple was rent, was that unspeakably merciful moment when Christ said, 'Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.' As our advocate with the Father, He is still making that same plea today--in your behalf and in mine."

(Jeffrey R. Holland, " 'The Peaceable Things of the Kingdom,' " Ensign, Nov. 1996, 83)
