If men were really 'dead' when they die, why concern ourselves? why the vast resources of time and money and effort directed at this work? If there were no resurrection, why would we do it?
But if there is life beyond the veil. Every thought or word or act we direct at this sacred work is pleasing to the Lord. Every hour spent on genealogical research, however unproductive it appears, is worthwhile. it is pleasing to the Lord. it is our testimony to Him that we accept the doctrine of the Resurrection and the plan of salvation. it draws us close to those who have gone before. it welds eternal links in family associations and draws us closer to Him who is our Lord and stands in the presence of Him who is our Eternal Father.Share
