It was Brigham Young and Parley P. Pratt made that remark. It has been revealed that we spirits did not have that mortal flesh as Adam or Michael while in the presence of our Heavenly Parents. IF we are the offspring of our heavenly parents by unionship and we are spirits only, then how is it possible for Adam & Eve have physical body by the same union? Quote

Why, if we can create physical bodies here in mortality, would that change when we are exalted beings?I say we will be able to do both...create physical bodies as well as spirit bodies, and it will be accomplished in the same manner as we experience here on earth, the literal union of man and woman.

tree Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 thanks for the help d-434, through the gospel principles you gave i now have a whole line of scripture for study and reference. Quote
THIRDpersonviewer Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Ether 3:16 Read the verse "thoroughly"I read it, based on "thoroughly," I felt no impression other than men are created in the likeness and image of spirit. Not in the way it has been irreverently talked about on other threads. Christ would appear to men in the same form that the Brother of Jared saw him. It is an eternal principle. All things created spiritual before physically. Quote
THIRDpersonviewer Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 For the record. Heavenly Mother has not been revealed to man by scripture for this very reason. Someone whom God loves and respects with all His being, would not "give" her to men to be talked about in lowly accounts. To debase or to insult. Men do it to Him. He does not want that for His wife I am sure. It has to come by personal revelation, which is not to be revealed to anyone. Quote

This seemed to be directed at my recent comments.First, let me say that I agree with you on the reasons Heavenly Mother is not referenced or talked about, in scripture, in song, from the pulpit, or anywhere else with great frequency. But I don't think that is the whole story. Sometimes you teach more by what you DON'T say and DON'T talk about as much as by what you DO say. Heavenly Mother is conspicuously absent from scripture. I think that stems from more than Heavenly Father's desire to protect his wife. The Saints don't feel that way about her. They love her.I also want to make it clear that in nothing I have said have I offended Her or Father. Not in the least. Quote
VisionOfLehi Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Doctrine and Covenants 93Abraham 3We know that intelligence, and elements, are eternal. They can't be created, they've always been. After that, it's speculation. But I do have mine. See, when the Lord "created" the Earth He wasn't doing in Ex Nihilo, but rather using the already existent spirit matter and elements and shaping them. Considering that's how all of the rest of Creation was done, my personal belief is that the creation of our spirits follows a similar pattern. The intelligence and whatnot that has always been... Gets shaped into our spirits. How this works, and what a heavenly mother's role in that, I've no guesses. Quote

VisionOfLehi Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 LDS Newsroom - Clarifications to Religion Writers and Editors Regarding <i>Newsweek</i> ReportWhile the official Proclamation on the Family affirms that each human being is a beloved son or daughter of heavenly parents, there are no teachings about a Heavenly Mother in Latter-day Saint scripture.No conference talks given by First Presidencies or Apostles have mentioned "heavenly mother."Also, there's nothing I've found that says anything in a manner that suggests there's just one "Heavenly Mother." For all we know, there could be two, or more.It's all speculation, and not necessary to know in order to receive salvation. Quote
