I have gotten some snide and rude comments on a serious statement I made in a previous post. Usually, I do not feed the trolls like Patt, Marsha or Russ – they have serious issues they need to work through. They do not need further attention.
When we begin to actually read the scriptures, we are told of a situation we will be in here shortly. One where no one owns anything. We simply are stewards over what has been assigned to us. Where we have been given children and we have done a poor job – or chosen not to have them, we have no increase. We have found our end. Where we have chosen to be wise stewards, increase, above and beyond what we need for ourselves, is given to those whose predicament is worse than our own. All are elevated – indeed there are no poor among them and the society rises together, or falls together.
This does not imply sameness. This is NOT communism. What DOES happen, is that those who can handle much, are given much. Those whose inclinations are to much less, will have much less. Sufficient for their needs. No more; no less. Very simple.
If they leave the system, they pull their shares out of it and come out with no less had they not entered into it. Most will not leave it, precisely because this consecrated form of living is the next step in their journey towards celestial laws. Once they have learned the lessons, they can move up and their rewards will be increased proportionately. World without end – all that Father has. Those that pull back from a consecrated life, once they have entered it – they are damned in their progression.
