What Is This Life?

 It would be nice to be able to explore thoughts and feelings outside of our known thought process. I'm not certain that is possible with all of the things that happen left and right. It would be interesting to try it though. If such an attempt were possible, I wonder how far along it would get. Would it be shut down immediately? Maybe so. If that's the case, then we are but a challenge yet to be found and yet to be destroyed by our own undoing.

If, however, we are something more. Something to be described as an intelligent being then I could be persuaded to understand how the rest of it goes. Who's to know exactly what's going on in this life. I for one do not know or have the perception to be able to figure that out. It is an unfortunate thought process at best. One upon which I do not have any idea how this life will make it out in the end.

On the other hand, if we are nothing but people simply trying to get to a home type destination...then I suppose I could handle that thought process. I suppose it belongs in the category of who came first the chicken or the egg? If you can figure that question out, you can probably summerize the cosmos.

An Opposition In All Things

Long has been the story told about how there must be an opposition in all things. From the pre-existence there was Satan, Lucifer the Son of the Morning. In the beginning we were with God in his presence. We learned all we could while there. Until the moment we couldn’t progress any more, we were unable to become like God. So, we were given the opportunity to come to Earth to gain a body. A Savior would be provided to atone for our sins enabling us to come back to the presence of God. The idea that an opposition must be in all things comes from 2nd Nephi: For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things. If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness, righteousness could not be brought to pass, neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad. Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one; wherefore, if it should be one body it must needs remain as dead, having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption, happiness nor misery, neither...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
