Scripture Blog

This weblog is my personal online scripture journal. I try to read the scriptures each morning as I exercise on my cross-trainer. It has a great impact on my life and my testimony of the Savior and his restored church. The journal is really for my own benefit but I have set it up as a web log in hopes to benefit anyone else that may be interested. "For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy Ghost..." 1 Nephi 10:19

D&C 129

In is in this revelation that we learn a physical property characteristic between a spirit and one with a physical body -

"If he be the spirit of a just man made perfect he will come in his glory; for that is the only way he can appear—" (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 129:6)

I sense from these words that the glorious nature of a spirit cannot be clothed. It seems that a spirit with a body of flesh and bones can control the glory emmitted. This may explain why the Father and the Son appeared unto the Prophet Joseph and he was able to bear their presence.
