"Taking upon Us the Name of Jesus Christ" - Dallin H. Oaks, Apr 1985

by Dallin H. Oaks
April 1985 General Conference

"It is significant that when we partake of the sacrament we do not witness that we take upon us the name of Jesus Christ. We witness that we are willing to do so. (See D&C 20:77.) The fact that we only witness to our willingness suggests that something else must happen before we actually take that sacred name upon us in the most important sense."
