Well, first of all I need you all to know that I have been lds member ever since I was born. I'm married and sealed in the temple. I love going to the temple and meditate much about church doctrines (not to figure it true or not, but to further my knowledege of it) Recently, paying close attention to the film in the endowments session where the heavenly messenger sent to Adam and Eve to teach them the plan of salvation and all we learn therin about the priesthood, I came out with this question: how was it possible for the messenger to shake his hand with Adam's? I've been pondering of different facts like the doctrine that teaches the 2 different type of heavenly beings, the one with spiritual bodies which are not allowed to offer up the hand; and the ones with resurrected bodies that are allowed to do so. Other point to consider is the fact that in this world Adam was the first Flesh, but the messengers are referred to as apostles of Jesus, so are they the same who we know lived with Jesus during His mortal ministry? Or are others with resurrected bodies? I know all this is a total confusion and perhaps some may think is not necessary info for my salvation, and for that very reason I'm appealing to this forum to see other people's insights and knowledge or personal points of view regarding my question, being aware there are many loyal members that have gained more light and knowledge through thorough scripture study. So I would appreciate that if you are thinking in lecture me about "not necessary for your salvation" please abstain from posting. Other than that please share your thoughts.
