Dale

 

 

Answer

 

Dear Dale,

The spirit world that is inhabited by those who have lived on the earth is right here on the earth. If the veil were parted so that we could see spiritual material, we would find that we are not alone. Brigham Young said it this way–

“When you lay down this tabernacle, where are you going? Into the spiritual world. Are you going into Abraham’s bosom? No, not anywhere nigh there but into the spirit world. Where is the spirit world? It is right here. Do the good and evil spirits go together? Yes, they do. Do they both inhabit one kingdom? Yes, they do. Do they go to the sun? No. Do they go beyond the boundaries of the organized earth? No, they do not. They are brought forth upon this earth, for the express purpose of inhabiting it to all eternity. Where else are you going? Nowhere else, only as you may be permitted.” (Discourses of Brigham Young, p.376)
