The Father's Plan
All this must be according to the Father's plan, which has predicated finite progress upon effort, creature achievement upon perseverance, and personality development upon faith. By thus ordaining the experience-evolution of the Supreme, the Father has made it possible for finite creatures to exist in the universes and, by experiential progression, sometime to attain the divinity of Supremacy. 115:7.2

First Thoughts ~
I can almost Imagine waking up in the resurrection chambers, and thinking my first thoughts.
When I awaken in the resurrection chambers on the first Mansion world I won’t know a thing more than I’ve learned through-out my entire life on our beautiful world.
I will know for sure that we Survive our material life and that my Faith was well founded.

Death added nothing to the intellectual possession or to the spiritual endowment, but it did add to the experiential status the consciousness of survival.

Wow, such an enlightened and intelligent perspective, as it is true! We do not become perfect upon our death(who do you know was perfect when they died?!)and because we are still SO imperfect, and because we have been mandated by the Father to become perfect as he is(meaning a perfect ME!), we will have a long, long, long, long way to go before we are even at the shores of Paradise!
Peace and Love.
