About this ebook

Jesus Christ is the eternal pivotal figure in human existence, premortal, mortal and postmortal. His atoning sacrifice is the greatest personal gift ever given. This short, simple book invites a deeper investigation into the defining moment on the cross when God the Father had to withdraw his presence and allow his Only Begotten Son in the flesh to bear our sins, our infirmities, every possible human experience, completely and utterly alone. The agony Jesus endured in Gethsemane and on the cross was not a collage of random pains heaped upon him. Jesus experienced and identified exactly which pain would be felt by you, and which pain would be felt by me. He understood precisely how and why and when we would feel each and every pain we would ever feel. He knows how to succor us personally and individually and privately. He will help us and unite us and perfect us, if we will turn to him and allow him to do so. He lives. He is the living Son of the living God. He knows your name. He knows you. He knows me. Hear Him.

Author

Ilyan Kei Lavanway

Ilyan Kei Lavanway is a proliferate yet undiscovered and unheralded Christian author. He served as a full-time missionary for two years in Argentina for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1986-1988. Since 2005, he has written and published over two dozen books of various lengths, ranging from a few pages to almost five-hundred pages. His education includes a Bachelor of Arts degree in Mathematics from the University of Washington, Seattle, and a Master of Science degree in Space Studies from the University of North Dakota, Grand Forks.Mr. Lavanway is married and has an autistic son who has Down's syndrome. Mr. Lavanway grew up in Wenatchee and Waterville, Washington State. He is the oldest of nine siblings, seven of whom are living. He spent his high school summers driving wheat trucks and combines during harvest, earning cash to support his first love, the love of flight. He was an avid private pilot in his teens.Ironically, for all his love of aviation, Mr. Lavanway's fourteen years in the United States Air Force never landed him a flight crew assignment. Nope. He was kicking it subterranean school in a capsule beneath the North Dakota plains as an ICBM launch officer for his first four years of service, followed by a year of really uninteresting work in a vault, on base. His next two years took him up near the Canadian border, to the giant, phased array space surveillance and early warning radar site outside Cavalier, North Dakota.Then, he was off to California. Academic assignments filled the final seven years of his military service. By the time he was medically retired from active duty, he had discovered his passion for writing.Since life has thrown him a few curves that make it impractical for him to return to flying airplanes any time soon, he has poured his heart into the written word.Mr. Lavanway feels he has a God-given gift and responsibility to express eternal principles that will point sincere readers to the scriptures, to the living apostles, to the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, and ultimately to a personal relationship with God the Father, and with God's Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, and with the Holy Ghost.
