What do we know about the spirit world from the scriptures?
D&C 138
When I listened this morning I instantly thought of how different it was from what I always believed and yet, there it was in the scriptures and I had somehow not ever know it.
Jesus did not go to the spirit prison, but he set up missions to go visit whom he had not be able to see. Bondage is felt by any who have had a long time away from their bodies, hence that is what Peter said that Jesus visited those in the spirit prison.
Peter 3:19
It really strikes me how totally set apart my thoughts and feelings are from the others in my class. I almost feel like I ought not be here. When The teacher asks questions I think I have the exact answer, yet if I keep such things to myself I notice that the comments have absolutely nothing to do with what I was thinking. Again, I see that to me this lesson was about something completely different. It is so odd that there would be a gulf here in Relief Society.
Now! They are discussing things that I thought of. The stories of difficult questions where the answer is not known but trust was placed in the Lord.... And now The teacher drifts towards what was initially significant to me.
