Taking the name of Christ
And it came to pass that there was not one soul, except it were little children, but who had entered into the covenant and had taken upon them the name of Christ. Mosiah 6:2
Every accountable person at the temple took upon themselves the name of Christ by covenant. A whole nation became His covenant people.
