Messages from the Easter Story: The Passover

In all of LDS scripture, Jesus is known by around 200 different names, each of which testifies of a different aspect of His many characteristics, roles, and titles. I love studying about several of Christ's names, but around this time of year "the Lamb of God" is my favorite.
On Jesus' last night in mortality, He celebrated the Passover with His apostles: "With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer" (Luke 22:15). Isaiah, John the Baptist, John the Beloved, Nephi, Alma, and Moroni all called Christ by this name, but during this week it was Jesus who testified to the world that it was He who was the pascal lamb, who died for all men. ‪#‎BecauseHeLives‬
