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...

Question Gramps, I could not find the answer, so I hope I am not asking it again. In Sunday School a sister said her mom, who had passed away, knew and talked to her grandchild, this woman’s daughter, in the pre-existence. I thought that would be...

Question Gramps, Will Satan who represents evil be bound forever for all of Heavenly Father’s children and all earths? Will this struggle be an eternal one for all worlds as they are created and populated with mankind? My son asked me this question and I...
