Jesus Christ, Exemplar

The Savior continually invited all to follow Him and to be like Him. In Mark 8:34, he said, “And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.” In John 14:6, he stated “I am the way.” In 3 Nephi 12:48, he invited all to “Therefore I would that ye should be perfect even as I, or your Father who is in heaven is perfect.” He was perfect, and He invites us to become “perfect.” Also in 3 Nephi 27:27, he issues a similar invitation: “Therefore, what manner of men ought ye to be? Verily I say unto you, even das I am.” He was the perfect example.
