“When the Son on the Cross promises paradise in his company to the good thief, when he promises the future feast in Heaven to the Apostles, when he speaks of the kingdom of the Father, he is always pointing toward eternity. However brief and close to the earth his words sound, they echo throughout infinite eternity and permeate the faith of his followers with their eternal content. He knows what he speaks of, what he brings with him and what he promises; and he can convey it to those who know it not. The very words he uses are designed to awaken in them a new sense: the sense of the eternal.” KnowsUseEarthFatherSpeakHeavenSoundCompanySonPromiseEternalCrossesEternityInfiniteKingdomsParadiseFollowersThievesEchoesPointingApostles Author:Adrienne von Speyr

“The writings of latter-day prophets clearly teach that the sorrows and sufferings endured by Adam and Eve upon their leaving the Garden of Eden were ordained by God and were a necessary part of their-and our-earthly experience. President Howard W. Hunter, then a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, taught: "We came to mortal life to encounter resistance. It was part of the plan for our eternal progress. Without temptation, sickness, pain, and sorrow, there could be no goodness, virtue, appreciation for well-being, or joy."” WritingWellsPainJoySufferingPresidentTeachVirtueProgressPlansTaughtSorrowMembersGoodnessEternalGardenLeavingAppreciationResistanceTemptationMortalsWell BeingProphetEncountersSicknessLatterAdamTwelveHuntersApostlesEdenAdam And EveGarden Of EdenLatter DaysPain And Sorrow Author:Daniel K Judd

“Time is clearly not our natural dimension. Thus it is that we are never really at home in time. Alternately, we find ourselves wishing to hasten the passage of time or to hold back the dawn. We can do neither, of course, but whereas the fish is at home in water, we are clearly not at home in time--because we belong to eternity.” HomeTimeCoursesWishWaterCan DoNaturalEternalEternityFishesDawnDimensionsBelongingPassagesApostlesPassage Of Time Author:Neal A.

“In the spirit of faith let us begin each day, and we shall be sure to " redeem the time " which it brings to us, by changing it into something definite and eternal. There is a deep meaning in this phrase of the apostle, to redeem time. We redeem time, and do not merely use it. We transform it into eternity by living it aright.” UseSpiritTimeEternalEternityPhrasesEach DayDefiniteRight TimeApostlesDeep Meaning Author:James Freeman Clarke
“For I have shown from the Scriptures, that no one of the sons of Adam is as to everything, and absolutely, called God, or named Lord. But that He is Himself in His own right, beyond all men who ever lived, God, and Lord, and King Eternal, and the Incarnate Word, proclaimed by all the prophets, the apostles, and by the Spirit Himself, may be seen by all who have attained to even a small portion of the truth. Now the Scriptures would not have testified these things of Him, if, like others, He had been a mere man.” IfsMenMaySpiritJesusChristLordSonKingsEternalJesus ChristMereScriptureProphetAdamPortionsApostles Author:Irenaeus of Lyons
