00:00:00.916 --> 00:00:03.670 align:middle line:90%
[MUSIC PLAYING]

00:00:03.670 --> 00:00:06.680 align:middle line:84%
As a final and
specially prepared

00:00:06.680 --> 00:00:09.660 align:middle line:84%
Passover supper
was ending, Jesus

00:00:09.660 --> 00:00:13.530 align:middle line:84%
took bread, blessed
and broke it,

00:00:13.530 --> 00:00:17.860 align:middle line:84%
and gave it to his
apostles, saying,

00:00:17.860 --> 00:00:23.340 align:middle line:84%
"This is my body,
which is given for you.

00:00:23.340 --> 00:00:25.140 align:middle line:90%
This do in remembrance of me.

00:00:25.140 --> 00:00:39.030 align:middle line:90%


00:00:39.030 --> 00:00:43.520 align:middle line:84%
This cup is the New
Testament in my blood,

00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:47.220 align:middle line:90%
which is shared for you.

00:00:47.220 --> 00:00:54.210 align:middle line:90%
This do in remembrance of me."

00:00:54.210 --> 00:00:58.800 align:middle line:84%
Since that upper room experience
on the eve of Gethsemane

00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:02.020 align:middle line:84%
and Golgotha, children
of the promise

00:01:02.020 --> 00:01:07.200 align:middle line:84%
have been under covenant to
remember Christ's sacrifice

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:12.150 align:middle line:84%
in this newer, higher,
more holy and personal way.

00:01:12.150 --> 00:01:16.860 align:middle line:90%


00:01:16.860 --> 00:01:20.520 align:middle line:84%
With a small cup of water,
we remember the shedding

00:01:20.520 --> 00:01:25.670 align:middle line:84%
of Christ's blood and the depth
of his spiritual suffering,

00:01:25.670 --> 00:01:28.400 align:middle line:84%
anguish, which began in
the Garden of Gethsemane.

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:32.390 align:middle line:90%


00:01:32.390 --> 00:01:33.250 align:middle line:90%
Tarry ye here.

00:01:33.250 --> 00:01:36.080 align:middle line:90%


00:01:36.080 --> 00:01:36.703 align:middle line:90%
Watch with me.

00:01:36.703 --> 00:01:40.330 align:middle line:90%


00:01:40.330 --> 00:01:42.850 align:middle line:84%
It would be the
supreme contribution

00:01:42.850 --> 00:01:47.720 align:middle line:84%
to a plan designed from before
the foundation of the world,

00:01:47.720 --> 00:01:53.410 align:middle line:84%
for the happiness of every man,
woman, and child who would ever

00:01:53.410 --> 00:01:55.570 align:middle line:90%
live in it.

00:01:55.570 --> 00:01:59.410 align:middle line:84%
The hour of atoning
sacrifice had come.

00:01:59.410 --> 00:02:05.220 align:middle line:84%
God's own son, his only
begotten son in the flesh,

00:02:05.220 --> 00:02:08.743 align:middle line:84%
was about to become the
Savior of the world.

00:02:08.743 --> 00:02:13.653 align:middle line:90%


00:02:13.653 --> 00:02:24.980 align:middle line:84%
Father, all things are
possible unto Thee.

00:02:24.980 --> 00:02:31.870 align:middle line:90%


00:02:31.870 --> 00:02:44.720 align:middle line:84%
Take away this cup from
me, nevertheless not

00:02:44.720 --> 00:02:50.220 align:middle line:90%
my will, but thine be done.

00:02:50.220 --> 00:02:55.120 align:middle line:90%


00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:58.450 align:middle line:84%
The Savior's spiritual
suffering, and the shedding

00:02:58.450 --> 00:03:02.700 align:middle line:84%
of his innocent blood so
lovingly and freely given.

00:03:02.700 --> 00:03:07.020 align:middle line:84%
Christ suffered for the
sins and sorrows and pains

00:03:07.020 --> 00:03:09.610 align:middle line:84%
of all the rest of
the human family,

00:03:09.610 --> 00:03:11.990 align:middle line:84%
providing remission
for all of our sins

00:03:11.990 --> 00:03:16.400 align:middle line:84%
as well, upon conditions of
obedience to the principles

00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:19.312 align:middle line:84%
and ordinances of
the gospel he taught.

00:03:19.312 --> 00:03:23.740 align:middle line:90%


00:03:23.740 --> 00:03:28.500 align:middle line:84%
With a crust of bread-- always
broken, blessed and offered

00:03:28.500 --> 00:03:33.540 align:middle line:84%
first-- we remember his
bruised body and broken heart.

00:03:33.540 --> 00:03:36.870 align:middle line:84%
The Savior's physical
suffering guarantees

00:03:36.870 --> 00:03:40.730 align:middle line:84%
that through his mercy
and grace every member

00:03:40.730 --> 00:03:44.710 align:middle line:84%
of the human family
shall be freed from death

00:03:44.710 --> 00:03:47.290 align:middle line:84%
and be resurrected
triumphantly from the grave.

00:03:47.290 --> 00:03:50.170 align:middle line:90%


00:03:50.170 --> 00:03:53.780 align:middle line:84%
And surely that is why
this particular ordinance,

00:03:53.780 --> 00:03:56.450 align:middle line:84%
with all its
symbolism and imagery,

00:03:56.450 --> 00:03:58.540 align:middle line:84%
comes to us more
readily and more

00:03:58.540 --> 00:04:02.000 align:middle line:84%
repeatedly than any
other in our life.

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:07.000 align:middle line:84%
It comes in what has been
called the most sacred, the most

00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:11.800 align:middle line:84%
holy of all the
meetings of the Church.

00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:16.529 align:middle line:84%
It should be a powerful,
reverent, reflective moment.

00:04:16.529 --> 00:04:19.370 align:middle line:84%
It should encourage spiritual
feelings and impressions.

00:04:19.370 --> 00:04:25.580 align:middle line:90%


00:04:25.580 --> 00:04:27.550 align:middle line:84%
In the simple and
beautiful language

00:04:27.550 --> 00:04:31.240 align:middle line:84%
of the sacramental prayers
those young priests offer,

00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:37.110 align:middle line:84%
the principal word we
hear seems to be remember.

00:04:37.110 --> 00:04:41.900 align:middle line:84%
If remembering is the
principal task before us,

00:04:41.900 --> 00:04:44.470 align:middle line:84%
what might come
to our memory when

00:04:44.470 --> 00:04:48.605 align:middle line:84%
those plain and precious
emblems are offered to us?

00:04:48.605 --> 00:04:58.550 align:middle line:90%


00:04:58.550 --> 00:05:01.090 align:middle line:90%
And this shall ye do.

00:05:01.090 --> 00:05:04.630 align:middle line:84%
And it shall be a
testimony unto the Father,

00:05:04.630 --> 00:05:07.740 align:middle line:90%
that you do always remember me.

00:05:07.740 --> 00:05:11.190 align:middle line:84%
And if ye do always
remember me, ye

00:05:11.190 --> 00:05:15.270 align:middle line:84%
shall have my spirit
to be with you.

00:05:15.270 --> 00:05:27.588 align:middle line:90%
