Missionary Moment - Puerto Rico San Juan & Dominican Republic Santo Domingo West

 I hope all is well and everyone's happy! 

 This week I wanted to kindly remind many of you of an important subject concerning your eternal lives.

 Don't exit out yet 

 Many people seem to believe that when everyone dies our souls are carried into a nice place called heaven or a fiery place called hell. 

 How can that be? We still haven't been judged, Jesus Christ still hasn't come, and we haven't been recieved our resurrection yet..

 Anybody know what resurrection is? 

 It's not reincarnation. 

 After Jesus had been killed he had resurrected on the 3rd day making it possible that each person who has ever lived or who will ever live be reunited with the body and the spirit as one perfected, glorified being. 

 Reincarnation is the process of living forever through different bodies or animals for all eternity. 

 We are not reincarnated. 

 As we are resurrected however and as our bodies are made immortal and perfect does not mean that we will be able to live with each other forever. 

 The difference is that those who want a life with their loves ones are required to enter into sacred promises with God in the temple called covenants. Those who are sealed by the holy spirit of promise and keep that promise with in fact be with their loved ones forever. 

 Erroneously people don't believe that. Believe it. What else is there to hope for? To build an eternal family it is required of us to enter into these covenants with God. No other contract or promise can make it so. 

 In the Lord's house are many "mansions" those who are not sealed by these promises that the Lord provides to His children will be separated into different mansions. And the separation from your loved ones will be very real. 

 You will be resurrected when the Lord comes again. It does not however promise you a place to be with others you love forever. That promise is found in the temple. 

 I love to talk about the temple! If you have questions on how to qualify to go in to that holy place, send me a message! If you don't believe what I say, study it out in the scriptures and ask God if it be true. It is. 

 Love you all!
