The Lord made known to Moses and Abraham, and I express it in various revelations, that the man was with God in the beginning. Although the doctrine has prevailed that matter was created out of nothing, the Lord declared that the elements are eternal. The matter has always existed and will always be so, and the spirits of man, as well as their bodies were created matter. We learn from this revelation that intelligence man was not created but always existed . There have been some speculation and written several articles trying to explain what exactly are these "intelligences , or is this" intelligence "but it is useless to speculate on them because there are some truths that we must stop until the Lord sees fit to reveal it the fullness of truth. Some
People have difficulty understanding that we have forgotten our pre-earth existence. The fact that we remember the early years of our childhood, when we drink, does not mean that no longer exist then, that we ate, we played, we laughed and we joined a family and social life. The same applies to our pre-mortal life, even if we do not remember what we did for reasons which the Lord in His eternal wisdom, we have not fully disclosed, live and relate to each other, where we grew and learned.
As spirit children of God, we have had a pre-mortal existence and therefore God is the father of the spirits of all mankind. Our spiritual body is shape of the physical body of God
(D & C 77:2; Ether 3:6-16).
With this, our training and preparation for mortal life began in the spirit world and must add that God gave us free agency in the pre-mortal life.
"There is no way that life has meaning if there is no knowledge of the doctrine of pre-earth life.
"The idea that birth is the beginning is totally illogical. There is no way to explain the purpose of life to those who believe such a thing.
"To think that life ends with Physical death is totally absurd, and no way to cope with life di is believed so.
"When we come to understand and comprehend the doctrine of pre-earth life, then assembles the pieces of the puzzle and can see the purpose. Then we come to understand that children are not monkeys, nor are their parents, nor were the parents of this at the beginning of the generation.
"We are children of God, created in His image.
"Our relationship with God as his children, is clear.
"The purpose of creation of this land is clear,
"test that is life threatening is clear,
" the need for a redeemer is clear,
"when come to understand this principle of the gospel, so that we have a Heavenly Father and a Son, we see the reason of the atonement and redemption. " (Boyd K. Packer)
This truth applies both spiritual and corporal, which is simply the envelope of the spirit and together they constitute the soul. The spirit of man is that way, as well as is the spirit of all creatures are similarities in their bodies. Parley P. Pratt clearly taught this principle:
"The spirit of man consists of organizing element of spiritual matters in the likeness and the model of the tabernacle of the flesh. In fact, it has all party organs and corresponds exactly to the outer tabernacle "
During the centuries in which we dwell in the state premortal not only develop our different characteristics and show our dignity and ability, or lack thereof, if but also we were in a place where that progress could observed. It is logical to believe that there was no church organization. The celestial beings lived in a perfectly organized society, he knew not only what they could do each of us, but also what each of us do when we put to the test and give us responsibility. It was so when it came time to come to inhabit this earth, was all ready and the Lord's servants had already been elected and ordained to fulfill their respective missions.
Through this revelation (Abraham 3:23) we can deduce two things: first, that among these spirit (in life premortal) had different levels of intelligence, various states of progress, and different levels of spiritual advancement, and second, that there was no difference of nationality between them, such as American, European, Asian, Australian, etc. This "limits of room" to "prefijarían" when spirits from entering the second state or the earthly existence ...
"If any of these spirits had been allowed to enter mortality until everyone had been good and large come a leader, then the diversity of conditions that would prevail among the sons of men, as we see today certainly seem discrimination and unjustified ....
"... .. Our position in the world, therefore, be determined in accordance with our advancement in the state or condition premortal the same way that our position in the future there will determine what we do here in mortality.
"Therefore, when the Creator said to Abraham and others who had achieved a similar status, 'I will make my rulers', not that there was no room for any feeling of envy or jealousy among the millions of spirit, for which were "noble and great" are not getting more than its due reward "
Creation:
This earth was created first spiritually. It was a spiritual land, nothing lived on his face, and was designed to go well, then get the physical creation, the heavenly creation, creation of land on Eden, before the fall of man .- The
man and all life forms existed as spiritual beings before they lay the foundations of this earth. There were men, and spiritual beasts, birds and fish spiritual, plants and trees spiritual. All creeping things, all herbs and shrubs, all amoebae and dinosaurs-in other words, all things exist as spiritual before they are put in natural form on earth .-
" In the beginning, the chief of the Gods called a council of the Gods , and met and projected a plan to create and populate the world . " (Joseph Smith, the Prophet Joseph Smith, Pág.433)
So we can deduce that God had materials available to organize the world of all that chaos, that is, chaotic matter, which are elements, and which dwells all the glory. The elements have been around since we had there. The pure principles of the elements are principles that can never be destroyed, can be organized and reorganized, but not destroyed. They had principles, and can not end ".-
was our Redeemer, Jesus Christ, who, under the direction of his Father, and organized under the subject and made this planet ...
" .... It is true that Adam helped form this earth, because I work with our Savior Jesus Christ. Perhaps there were others who cooperated as Noah and Enoch and why not Joseph Smith? -
But what is a Day? is a specific period; is a time, a number of times, an eternity or a period of eternity, there is no statement revealed that specifies that each of the "six days" which is spoken in the building were of the same length. "
Abraham gives us a blueprint of creation when he talks about the plans of the saints who carried out the work created. After reciting the events of the "six days", adding: " and so were their decisions at the time they agreed among themselves to form the heavens and the earth ." (Abraham5: 3)
