How ought we to regard Jesus?
In reading the 1854 Children's Catechism, I came across this question and answer, to which I fully agree:
I have often warned against the worship of Christ on this blog, but I want to also warn never to allow this to strip you of your feelings of gratitude and love towards Christ, which are desirable and acceptable to have. Of course, I also have similar gratitude and love towards Joseph Smith and many others, including membebrs of my own family, but Jesus, our Brother, went through tremendous suffering and even death for us, and we must never forget what he has done. Would we be willing to pass through that same type of challenge that he went through in order to help our Brothers and Sisters?
With what feelings ought we to regard the Lord Jesus Christ, when we consider the love manifested by him to us?
We ought to feel towards him the warmest gratitude and love, and be ready to keep all his commandments and precepts.
