QUOTE OF THE DAY Thomas S. Monson | |
“Seek heavenly guidance one day at a time. The help you need may not come just as you envision, but it will come. When we remember that each of us is literally a child of God, we will not find it difficult to approach Him. “Seek heavenly help also to know how to serve others. There is no feeling so gratifying nor knowledge so comforting as knowing that our Father has answered the prayer of another through you” (“Three Gates to Open,” BYU Devotional, November 14, 2006).

The Gate of Heaven: Insights on the Doctrines and Symbols of the Temple by Matthew B. Brown From the premortal world, where the Plan of Salvation was laid out and the need for temples was established, to the Restoration, in which the fullness of the gospel was reintroduced to the world in the temple ceremony, author Matthew B. Brown explores the rich heritage of symbolism that has characterized temples and temple worship through the ages, reverently examining the sacred doctrines associated with the gate of heaven. Among many other topics he discusses; Rituals and symbols from the Tabernacle of Moses, the Temple of Solomon, and the holy places of the earliest Christians. The remarkable parallels between ancient temple worship and the doctrines and ordinances restored by Joseph Smith. Personages from the spirit world who returned to earth to request temple work, to assist with this work, or to witness their own work being done.
