Elder
Bednar Taught:
“Our
physical bodies make possible a breadth, a depth, and an intensity of
experience that simply could not be obtained in our premortal existence. Thus,
our relationships with other people, our capacity to recognize and act in
accordance with truth, and our ability to obey the principles and ordinances of
the gospel of Jesus Christ are amplified through our physical bodies. …
“The Father’s plan is designed to
provide direction for His children, to help them become happy, and to bring
them safely home to Him with resurrected, exalted bodies” (“We
Believe in Being Chaste,” Ensign or Liahona,May
2013, 41, 43).
