Resurrection

Resurrection

When we are resurrected, what will be our age? If I died old will I be brought back at that age or younger like in the prime of life? Will physical defects such as a deformity be done away with? Thank you. Jim ____________________ Jim, This is a great question....
Infinite Atonement and Murder

Infinite Atonement and Murder

Dear Gramps, We are told that Christ’s redeeming atonement was infinite, and specifically, that He descended “below all things”. If this is true, then why isn’t murder covered by His atonement? How can it be called an infinite and universal...
Age of Accountability

Age of Accountability

I understand that those who died before reaching the age of accountability will automatically be exalted. They were very righteous and too pure. Since about 80% of HF children are in that category does that mean the rest of us were the dregs of those who came to...
Forgiveness

Forgiveness

Dear Gramps, (for a friend) Many years ago, I was married in the temple and we had two little boys born in the covenant. After 7 years of marriage, my husband died. I was very hurt and mad at God and took off my garments. I am trying to come back now and I know that...
Fit in Heaven

Fit in Heaven

Dear Gramps, It seems that many Mormons choose food as their drug/alcohol. While I know all things will be restored to their proper frame, is there any revelation about being physically fit in heaven? Thanks for the help. Eric ______________ Eric, your observation on...

Status of those in the Telestial glory

Status of those in the Telestial glory

I had a discussion with my mother recently on the status of those in the telestial glory. In the Temple we learn that our earth is compaired the telestial kingdom. How can we then understand D&C 76:89 when Joseph Smith explains “And thus we saw, in the...
Earthbound Spirits

Earthbound Spirits

Two times now people have told me that earthbound spirits,family, etc. are attached to me, as to say living on me or in my energy. Don’t all spirits go right to God? Have some goodly spirits remained here and attached and not crossed over the veil? Thank you. I...
Timing of Vicarious Work

Timing of Vicarious Work

I know that all will be resurrected–that is the gift of immortality. Will there be resurrected spirits in the millennium who have not had their work performed/nor have they accepted the gospel of Jesus Christ. OR are those individuals reserved to come at the end...
