Death in the Millennium will have three major differences from how we know it now. First, there will be no premature death, either among children or adults. All will live to “the age of man.” Second, when people die, their bodies will not be laid in the ground to decay and await the resurrection. Instead, they will be changed from a mortal to a resurrected state in an instant, “in the twinkling of an eye.” As a result of these circumstances, those on earth will no longer experience any sorrow at the “death” of loved ones (D&C 101:29). The third difference is a logical consequence of the second: no longer will people go to the spirit world when they die, but as the Lord said in this dispensation, “when he dies he shall not sleep, that is to say in the earth, but shall be changed in the twinkling of an eye, and shall be caught up, and his rest shall be glorious” (D&C 101:30–31).Share
