My Birthright
My Birthright
Many and wonderful are the privileges that are mine because of my birthright. First of all, I am a child of GOD—born in the infinite realm of Eternity of divine spiritual Eternal Father and Mother. I am mortal because n my body is placed the seed of death. I am immortal because in my soul is the germ of Eternal Life. I am naturally and literally the daughter of Celestial Beings. I was acquainted with them and I know and loved them in the home beyond my remembrance. Then I walked by sight. Here I have to walk by faith. I was at the great council in Heaven before the foundation of the earth was laid. I was taught the principles of the Gospel in that Heavenly Home. I rejoiced in the Heavenly plan that was accepted there requiring all men to work out their own salvation and through the redemption of the Savior to receive Eternal Life in the Celestial Glory as has been exemplified to by our Father. As man is God once was. As He is man may become. I was doubtless taught what my mission was to be on earth and advised in the way of life by my Heavenly Mother. I was endowed with divine attributes, GOD like power and my free agency. I kept my first estate and did covenant with my Father to keep my second estate. How do I know? Because I would not have been here had it not been so and the Lord has taught me through the Patriarch. My blessing tells me “Thou art from Ephraim.” Ephraim who received the greater blessing n his generation came through the lineage of Israel, Abraham, Shem, Noah, Enoch and other back to Adam who was one of the GOD’s who created the earth in the beginning. Adam called his wife Eve because She is the Mother of all living. They kept their second estate. This is my heritage from our great progenitors the first man and woman. I was born of goodly parents under the covenants making me heir to all the blessing and privileges of the Celestial Kingdom.
