The reality view of the sprit world
I imagined overhearing two people talking about the death of one of their children. They talked about how sad it was that the child was dead and gone.
This is what I would tell them.
Your child is by no means dead or gone. They live in the spirit companion to our physical Earth. They are far more alive than you or me.
Every living thing has two parts, a spirit which was made by Heavenly Father, which is then put into a physical body at birth. Our Heavenly Father teaches his spirit children until they are mature and can progress no farther. The Earth is a living thing too. So-called "dead" spirits migrate to the spirit Earth and live there until resurrection.
When you too die, you will go to the spirit Earth. However, unless you make arrangements to be a family, your "dead" child will just be another buddy, if you are even allowed to see them. After all, when you were married (if you were married at all), you only promised a family that lasted until death.
To make those arrangements, you have to drastically change your view of reality. Nearly all people hack and cobble together their view of reality, based on their experience and what other people teach them. Some of those other people may indeed be very smart. But their view of reality is only based on their experience and what other people have taught them.
What people have then, is a mish-mash of reality which varies all over the place, and may have little resemblance to what is actually real.
The key is to find out how Heavenly Father views reality. That is what is real. To do that, you have to at least pick the brains of people who have actually talked to Him. If you can pick the brains of Heavenly Father yourself, that is the ideal.
The Bible talks of a class of people who did talk with Heavenly Father. They are called prophets. If there were a prophet today, we could pick his brains. That prophet could then teach us how to first-hand pick the brains of Heavenly Father, as well as tell us what that prophet learned from talking with Heavenly Father on a continuous basis.
THERE IS SUCH A PROPHET TODAY. Whether you believe that or not is your choice. You can stick like glue with a mish-mash of reality, or pester your Heavenly Father to find out His view of reality. You can be forceful with Him, and tell him you are not giving up until you find out what He knows about reality.
