Transcript

There were two purposes for life in mortality. The first was that we might gain experiences that we could not obtain in any other way. The second was to obtain tabernacles of flesh and bones. Both of these purposes are vital to the existence of man. We are now being tested and tried to see if we will do all the things the Lord has commanded us to do. These commandments are the principles and ordinances of the gospel, and they constitute the gospel of Jesus Christ. Every principle and ordinance has a bearing upon the whole purpose of our testing, which is to prepare us to return to our Heavenly Father and become more like Him. Only through the gift of the Atonement and our obedience to the gospel can we return and live with God once again.
