No Other Way

  There are many in our world today (even some who call themselves Christian) who believe that there are many ways to come to God..many paths to Heaven. 
What is the purpose of the suffering mentioned in D&C 19:16-17?

Before his arrest Jesus went alone to pray to the Father. He pleaded with him "Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me. Yet not My will, but Yours be done." (John 14:6)..meaning if there was any other way for God to forgive the sins of mankind, Jesus wanted the Father to spare him from what was coming.
His distress during this prayer was such that he actually sweated blood!

If there was ANY OTHER WAY, do you honestly think God would have allowed his own SON to go through this?...


 Crucifixion - The Physical Suffering of Jesus

 But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.
And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,

“This is the covenant that I will make with them
after those days, declares the Lord:
I will put my laws on their hearts,
and write them on their minds,”



 then he adds,

“I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”

Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.

Hebrews 10:12-18

John 14:6
  Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

Remember that Jesus is very much alive and always will be. He is preparing a place for us so that we can be with him forever in Glory!
This is something to celebrate each and every day.

and remember, we are...
