Pre Earth Life
Ê Referred to as our “First Estate.”
Ê We all lived with God and we were and are His “Spirit Children.”
Ê Choice and Accountability are eternal principles.
Ê God presented His Plan to all of us.
Ê Christ and 2/3 of God’s children accepted His plan.
Ê Satan proposed an alternative plan that eliminated choice and accountability.
Ê 1/3 of God’s children chose to follow Satan. These did not keep their first estate and their progression stopped.

Birth
Ê The process of clothing our spirits in a physical body – like that of our Heavenly Father – though imperfect.
Ê The plan provided for families as the best way to provide for the growth and development of God’s children on earth.
Ê All memory of our Pre-‐Earth life was veiled to require us to walk by faith in this life.

Earth Life
Ê Sometimes referred to as the “Second Estate.”
Ê Because of the Fall of Adam, we are separated from God both physically and spiritually – part of the plan.
Ê Three main purposes of this life Ê Receive a physical body. Ê Walk by and develop faith in God. Ê Learn, grow, and gain experience.
Ê We are NOT left alone. God has given everyone a conscience – “The Light of Christ.”

Two Deaths
Spiritual Death
Ê Being separated from God.
Ê Caused by sin.
Ê Remedied by Christ’s atonement.
Physical Death
Ê Being separated from our physical bodies.
Ê Necessary part of the plan.
Ê Remedied by Christ’s resurrection.

Death (Physical)
Ê Part of the perfecting process where we lay down our imperfect and corruptible body in preparation for our immortal and perfect resurrected body.
Ê Our spirit continues to live on.
![Page 10: Meet$the$Mormons$ Class2:ThePlanof$Salvation 2 The Plan - P… · Meet$the$Mormons$ Class2:ThePlanof$Salvation Osher$Lifelong$Learning$Institute$ June$18,$25,$July$2,$9,$2015–$9:40$am$–$11:05am$](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042917/5f5adaebd95af242e5279443/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Spirit World: Paradise & Prison
Ê Spirit World is a place of continued learning and preparation.
Ê Memory of our earth life will remain and our memory of our pre-‐earth life will be restored.
Ê Entrance into the Spirit World (Death) does not change our personalities or our desire for good or evil.
Ê Prison: Those who choose not to follow God’s commandments -‐ the unrepentant.
Ê Paradise: Those to kept the commandments and followed Jesus Christ – a place of peace and rest.

Resurrection
Ê ALL people – good or bad – will be resurrected.
Ê Christ’s resurrection is a free gift for all.
Ê Physical Death is done away.
Ê Resurrected bodies are immortal and perfect.

Final Judgment
Ê Presided over by God the Father.
Ê Conducted by Jesus Christ.
Ê Judged according to our faith, works, desires of our hearts.
Ê The decision: Which kingdom of “degree of glory” is appropriate for each of God’s children.
Ê Spiritual Death done away – ALL come to God’s presence, but not all can remain there (nor would they want to).

Telestial Glory
Ê Those who continue in their sins and do not repent.
