On August 18, 1998, then-Elder Russell M.

Here are some of the important points President Nelson made in his speech:
The atonement of Jesus Christ was for the salvation of all mankind.
The ministry of Jesus Christ is an example of love and kindness.
President Nelson invited everyone to follow his example. “To facilitate our desire to follow him, perhaps we could consider qualities of his life that we can emulate,” he said. “Time would not permit us to list all of them, but perhaps we could identify five specific aspects that would be helpful to us.”
Love, ordinances, prayer, knowledge and endurance to end are five aspects of Jesus Christ’s example that President Nelson invited others to follow.
President Nelson said, “A commitment to endure to the end means that we will not ask for a release from a call to serve. It means that we will persevere in pursuit of a worthy goal. It means that we will never, no never, give up on a loved one who has strayed. And it means that we will always cherish our eternal family relationships, even through difficult days of disease, disability, or death.”
