To Dwell With Heavenly Father
for time and all eternity...
This means everything to me. Without Him, I have nothing. I am nothing. There is a God-shaped void within my heart that only He can fill. I need to be with Him. Without this, forever families don't mean anything. Priesthood meetings, MIA, Sacrament meetings, genealogy work, even the temple is all emptiness and vanity if I cannot be with Heavenly Father in exaltation with Him. The scripture makes it clear that anything less are places of "destruction" in which the vast majority of people "perish."
Matthew 7:13-14 "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."
Book of Mormon: Jacob 6:10-11 "...for justice cannot be denied, ye must go away into that lake of fire and brimstone, whose flames are unquenchable, and whose smoke ascendeth up forever and ever, which lake of fire and brimstone is endless torment. O then, my beloved brethren, repent ye, and enter in at the strait gate, and continue in the way which is narrow, until ye shall obtain eternal life."
Revelation 20:12,15 "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works... 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
If I am in some lesser kingdom and do not dwell with Heavenly Father, I have perished and my soul is in agony. That is why I cannot be satisfied with the terestrial or telestial kingdoms.
