Based on actual events as
recorded in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament
of Jesus Christ. [MUSIC PLAYING]
I perceive that thy mind
is worried concerning the resurrection of the dead. Yes. How can it be?
Behold, there is no resurrection
until after the coming of Christ. There is a time
appointed that all shall come forth from the dead. There is a space between
death and the resurrection of the body, a state of the
soul in happiness or in misery until that time
which is appointed of God that the dead
shall come forth, and be reunited, both soul and
body, and be brought to stand before
God, and be judged according to their works. The soul shall be restored
to the body, and the body to the soul; and
every limb and joint shall be restored to its
body; even a hair of the head shall not be lost. And then shall the
righteous shine forth in the kingdom of God. But an awful death
cometh upon the wicked; for no unclean thing can
inherit the kingdom of God. It is requisite with
the justice of God that men should be judged
according to their works. If their works were
good in this life, they shall be restored
unto that which is good. If their works
were evil, it shall be restored unto them for evil. But if they have
repented of their sins, and desired righteousness
until the end of their days, even so they shall be
rewarded unto righteousness. And thus they stand or
fall; for behold, they are their own judges, whether
to do good or do evil. Corianton, do not
suppose, because it has been spoken
concerning restoration, that ye shall be restored
from sin to happiness. I say unto you, wickedness
never was happiness.
