Join in as we look at one more section of the Come Follow Me lesson for the week, focusing one of the Saviour's final exchanges and counsel given whilst He was on the cross.

Elder LeGrand Richards: You remember how the whole world believed that the thief upon the cross went to heaven with the Savior because He said: “To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.” (Luke 23:43.) Now the men of this world, understanding things according to man’s wisdom, thought he went to heaven. But according to divine truth, he went only to paradise where the Savior arranged for the gospel to be preached to him to prepare him so that he would be worthy to stand with the sanctified and the redeemed of his people.

Today we look at the example of the Saviour in the Come Follow Me section where He performs the ultimate act of forgiveness.

President John Taylor: They know not the light and intelligence of the Holy Ghost, and, consequently, they do not understand our position, and they are led by other influences they know nothing about. They do not see the kingdom of God, nor can they.

Join us as we look a bit closer at the teaching from the Saviour about His yoke being easy and His burden light and how we should act as a result.

Elder David A Bednar: A yoke is a wooden beam, normally used between a pair of oxen..., that enables them to pull together on a load when working in pairs... In essence, the Saviour is beckoning us to rely on and pull together with Him, even though our best efforts are not equal to and cannot be compared with His.

We continue further into this week's Come Follow Me. We look at the mocking of the Saviour in His final hours and how this links to other teachings in the scriptures.

We continue studying the Saviour's crucifixion and death, this time looking at how He was willing to suffer the experience in a lonely journey and the attributes this exemplifies.

Elder Jeffrey R Holland: Thus, of divine necessity, the supporting circle around Jesus gets smaller and smaller and smaller, giving significance to Matthew’s words: “All the disciples [left] him, and fled.” Peter stayed near enough to be recognized and confronted. John stood at the foot of the cross with Jesus’s mother. Especially and always the blessed women in the Savior’s life stayed as close to Him as they could. But essentially His lonely journey back to His Father continued without comfort or companionship.

We begin looking at this week's exciting opportunity to study the final moments of the Saviour's mortal ministry. We consider what an important event his crucifixion was and also one way you try teach the significant act that it was too younger children.

Come Follow Me Manual: In His final moments on earth, Jesus was doing what He had done throughout His mortal ministry—teaching us by showing us. Indeed, charity is “the pure love of Christ” (Moroni 7:47)

After yesterday's focus on Father's Day, I was prompted to study further into the role of the Father and decided to look now at where a father should be placing their priority - indeed, the Focus of a Father.

Today we cover the difference between a testimony and true conversion. Also, what needs to happen in order that we become fully converted?

Luke 22:32

Elder David A Bednar: A testimony is spiritual knowledge of truth obtained by the power of the Holy Ghost. Continuing conversion is constant devotion to the revealed truth we have received—with a heart that is willing and for righteous reasons. Knowing that the gospel is true is the essence of a testimony. Consistently being true to the gospel is the essence of conversion. We should know the gospel is true and be true to the gospel.

Join us as we consider a really important aspect of the Atonement - the intimacy of the Saviour's suffering. We know the great, infinite power but do we comprehend the personal power of this great sacrifice?

Mosiah 15:10-12 and Alma 7:11-13

President Dallin H Oaks: I am still speaking of mortal infirmities not caused by our sins. Some are born with physical or mental disabilities that cause personal suffering for them and struggles for those who love and care for them. For many, the infirmity of depression is painful or permanently disabling.
