Build a new world
The old one is passing away'
So our focus should not be on extending the life of the old, but the ushering in of the new
and that is what we should teach our kids, not how to live in the current world (unless that is what they are navigating, but that's just the adults) but the building of the new.
Shan should do geneology/indexing every day for schoolwork. Along with writing and math.
In D&C 88 there are verses depicting events before and after the second coming, then it details the resurrection. How are those of the first resurrection chosen? I think we will choose ourselves. At the first trump, those who are anxious to serve Christ will rise and show up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed ready to work in his kingdom, they will be so excited they won't even think about what it means about their rating or eternal salvation. They will do it because Christ called them.
The ones that wait for the second trump need more prodding. They are not as anxious but will do what is right if prodded enough.
Those who wait until the third trump are not anxious in the good way, but the bad, they know they don't want to serve, they know that their results will not be as cool as they could have been.
talking to the kids about how Covid is back to its winter glory, and they were asking "When will it end?"
I replied, according to my study in the D&C and NT this week "Probably not until Christ comes."
5-year-old pipes up "Christ is coming? Hurray!!"
Hurrah indeed, now to make sure we are standing in Holy Places to survive all the fun until then.
