Jesus Christ and the Everlasting Gospel

Jesus Christ Fulfilled All Righteousness

Jesus Christ lived a perfect life by submitting to Heavenly Father's will in all things. Modern prophets have testified: “Though sinless, [Jesus Christ] was baptized to fulfill all

righteousness” (“The Living Christ: The Testimony of the Apostles,” Ensign or Liahona, Apr.2000, 2).

Like the Savior, we fulfill righteousness when we submit to the ordinances and covenants of the everlasting gospel.

He humbled Himself before the Father.

He witnessed to the Father that He would obey His commandments.

He showed the children of men the gate by which they can enter the celestial kingdom.

He set an example for us.

Righteousness includes humbly conforming to the will of the Father.

Righteousness includes covenanting with the Father to obey His commandments.

Righteousness includes receiving the ordinances of salvation.

Righteousness includes following the example set by Jesus Christ.
