Saving
the Soul
READ
D&C 18:10-16
What is a
“soul”?
What is a
spirit?
What is a
body?
Why is the
worth of souls great in the sight of God?
Why does
verse 11 say, “suffered death in the flesh” rather than “suffered death”?
Does
“suffered the pain of all men” mean “suffered all the pain of each person” or does
it mean “suffered the pains that all men suffer”?
What are

How does
Christ’s resurrection make our redemption possible?
If we
understand the word soul to mean “body and spirit,” what does verse 13 teach us

What does
“glory be to the Father” mean?
What does
it mean that the Atonement was Christ’s “preparations” unto mankind?

the preparations He finished in Gethsemane and Golgotha?
Why does
Christ say He has “finished” the will of the Father (v2) but that the atonement
was only His “preparations” unto the Children of men (v19)?
If the
atonement, crucifixion and resurrection constitute Christ’s “preparations” unto
the children of men, what must He do to complete His ministry?
What must
we do to take advantage of His preparations unto us (the atonement)?
