Joseph also said that the Holy Ghost is now in a state of Probation which if he should perform in righteousness he may pass through the same or a similar course of things that the Son has. http://www.boap.org/LDS/Parallel/1843/27Aug43.html Franklin D. Richards "Scriptural Items
But the holy ghost is yet a Spiritual body and waiting to take to himself a body. as the Savior did or as god did or the gods before them took bodies for the Saviour Says the work that my father did do i also & those are the works he took himself a body & then laid down his life that he might take it up again http://www.boap.org/LDS/Parallel/1844/16Jun44.html Laub Journal
It is quoted by Donald Q. Cannon, Larry E. Dahl, and John W. Welch here. I don't think it is in dispute.

THE HOLY GHOST IS ON PROBATION - WILL ONE DAY HAVE A BODY??
Fascinating stuff. Not essential for Salvation - but interesting nonetheless:
The Firstborn is always the Savior and Redeemer of that eternal round. The Holy Ghost will move from second counselor in the grand presidency to the first counselor in the grand presidency and will be the next Savior and Redeemer of the next eternal round for the Father only. Christ's firstborn will be the Savior and Redeemer of our first round of spirit offspring once we are exalted. The Father having moved on to a higher level. These things are wonderful.

The Greatness of our God we cannot comprehend. Hallelujah! (Praise God in Hebrew) Halle-lu-hu (Praise Him! in Hebrew)
ReplyDeleteAnd let us not forget for an instant that the Holy Ghost is also a God. To have a God as our constant companion is so overwhelming I can hardly digest it. The Comforter. The Giver of Light and further knowledge from Father and the Savior. The Faithful Witness, sanctifier and Testator of our righteous deeds. To be worthy of the nearness and attentiveness of such a being is more than I can comprehend. I cringe for all the times I've offended Him and caused Him to withdraw from my presence for I testify that I have tasted of the sweetness of the Spirit of God. He is perfect in His Oneness with Father and the Son and He protects our spirits from the voices of evil if we will listen and obey.
Toda raba Avi-nu she-ba-sha-may-im, yeet ka desh shem-cha. Toda Raba ki shel-cha Ru-ach Ko-desh (" Many thanks our Father in Heaven, hallowed be Your Name. Many thanks for Your Holy Spirit" in Hebrew)
You'll be blessed for any attempt to repeat this in the sincerity of your heart in Hebrew. God bless all! Great post IRAQ.
