Admittedly, this will be one of the more zany posts to ever hit the Wood Zone - a hard feat, to be sure....
But my wife and I were at a really beautiful overlook soaking in nature and enjoying some D&C 88 as a follow-on scripture deep-dive after our EQ lesson on Sunday. In it, we learn about the nature of future changes to the earth as she comes to her own and is crowned with glory and made a habitation of those exalted beings who have made it through all of the filth and come out of her wickedness and who have not partaken of her sins.
16 And the aresurrection from the dead is the redemption of the soul.
17 And the redemption of the soul is through him that aquickeneth all things, in whose bosom it is decreed that the bpoor and the cmeek of the dearth shall inherit it.
18 Therefore, it must needs be asanctified from all bunrighteousness, that it may be prepared for the ccelestial glory;
19 For after it hath filled the measure of its creation, it shall be crowned with aglory, even with the presence of God the Father;
20 That bodies who are of the acelestial kingdom may bpossess it forever and ever; for, for this cintent was it made and created, and for this intent are they dsanctified.
21 And they who are not asanctified through the blaw which I have given unto you, even the law of Christ, must inherit canother kingdom, even that of a terrestrial kingdom, or that of a telestial kingdom.
22 For he who is not able to abide the alaw of a celestial kingdom cannot babide a ccelestial glory.
23 And he who cannot abide the law of a aterrestrial kingdom cannot abide a terrestrial glory.
24 And he who cannot abide the law of a atelestial bkingdom cannot abide a telestial cglory; therefore he is not meet for a kingdom of glory. Therefore he must abide a kingdom which is not a kingdom of glory.
25 And again, verily I say unto you, the aearth abideth the law of a celestial kingdom, for it filleth the bmeasure of its creation, and transgresseth not the law—
26 Wherefore, it shall be asanctified; yea, notwithstanding it shall bdie, it shall be cquickened again, and shall abide the power by which it is quickened, and the drighteous shall einherit it.
27 For notwithstanding they die, they also shall arise again, a bspiritual body.
28 They who are of a celestial aspirit shall receive the same bbody which was a natural body; even ye shall receive your bodies, and your cglory shall be that glory by which your bodies are dquickened.
29 Ye who are aquickened by a portion of the bcelestial glory shall then receive of the same, even a fulness.
30 And they who are quickened by a portion of the aterrestrial glory shall then receive of the same, even a fulness.
31 And also they who are quickened by a portion of the atelestial glory shall then receive of the same, even a fulness.
32 And they who remain shall also be aquickened; nevertheless, they shall return again to their own place, to enjoy that which they are bwilling to receive, because they were not willing to enjoy that which they might have received.
33 For what doth it profit a man if a gift is bestowed upon him, and he receive not the gift? Behold, he rejoices not in that which is given unto him, neither rejoices in him who is the giver of the gift.
34 And again, verily I say unto you, that which is agoverned by law is also preserved by law and perfected and bsanctified by the same.
35 That which abreaketh a law, and babideth not by claw, but seeketh to become a law unto itself, and willeth to abide in sin, and altogether abideth in sin, cannot be sanctified by law, neither by mercy, djustice, nor ejudgment. Therefore, they must remain ffilthy still.
36 All kingdoms have a law given;
37 And there are many akingdoms; for there is no bspace in the which there is no ckingdom; and there is no kingdom in which there is no space, either a greater or a lesser kingdom.
38 And unto every kingdom is given a alaw; and unto every law there are certain bounds also and conditions.
39 All beings who abide not in those aconditions are not bjustified.
40 For aintelligence cleaveth unto intelligence; bwisdom receiveth wisdom; ctruth embraceth truth; dvirtue loveth virtue; elight cleaveth unto light; fmercy hath gcompassion on mercy and claimeth her own; hjustice continueth its course and claimeth its own; judgment goeth before the face of him who sitteth upon the throne and governeth and executeth all things.
So, if the earth is supposed to be baptized with water, then by fire and eventually be the habitation of Celestialized beings that once flourished on her surface, then is she going to enjoy companionship and receive the ultimate crown of being sealed to another for the eternities? That was my question.
My wife chimed in and pointed out that a majority of small planetoids/suns out there have a binary equivalent and they revolve around each other - and that suns often are the planet producers. Meaning, they spit out posterity - or more of their own kind. All documented/observed. Just a matter of applying common sense along with some wild thinking to make the connections.
I think it would only make sense that these binary unions are the companions to each other.
Scientists have calculated and speculated that our sun has a binary companion star, but that it either went cold or is "away" (possibly preparing a place for the bride) and also will appear suddenly at the "Weddng Feast". Just a thought. But either way, we know of it's presence due to it's gravitational effects on the other planets in the system.
Enjoy the thoughts on this day of lovers!
