While our individual salvation is based on our individual obedience, it is equally important that we understand that we are each an important and integral part of a family. And the highest blessings can be received only within an eternal family. When families are functioning as designed by God, the relationships found therein are the most valued of mortality. The plan of the Father is that family love and companionship will continue into the eternities. Being one in the family carries a great responsibility of caring, loving, lifting, and strengthening each member of the family so that all can righteously endure to the end while in mortality and dwell together throughout eternity. It is not enough just to save ourselves. It is equally important that parents, brothers, and sisters are saved in our families. If we return home alone to our Heavenly Father, we will be asked, "Where is the rest of the family?" This is why we teach that families are forever. The eternal nature of an individual becomes the eternal nature of the family.
