Joseph Smith stated that “it is no more incredible that God should save the dead, than that he should raise the dead.” But in the work of saving the human family, much had to be done. The gospel had to be taught in the spirit world after mortal death, the ordinances of the plan of life and salvation had to be administered on earth vicariously for the dead, and those who became sons and daughters of Jesus Christ in all ages of time had to be organized into one great family under the Son of God, their celestial Father. The Prophet taught that by helping to accomplish this work the Saints would become “saviors on mount Zion.” They would do something for the dead which was important to their salvation and which the dead could not do for themselves.Share
