“what is the compexion of a resurrected being”
I guess we should ask Joseph Smith. But, then again, Joseph seemed to be a little snooty with regard to Jesus Christ. As I recall, he boasted that he had done more than JC ever did.
As I recall, he boasted that he had done more than JC ever did.
If you really understood you scripture there were several dispensation and each one was a retoration of the Doctrine and Covenants of the Lord.
The reason for dispensation was because each one had in time become corrupted and fell into apostasy.
Moses was the last one before the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ was over 400 years the earth was with out the Lord pristhood!
Shortly after Jesus was Crusified it was not long before all the apostles were also killed of died off and the Lord Church fell into apostasy again.
In 1830 the Last Dispensation was on the earth again and never to be taken away until...
D&C 13:
1 Upon you my fellow servants, in the name of Messiah I confer the Priesthood of Aaron, which holds the keys of the ministering of angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; and this shall never be taken again from the earth, until the sons of Levi do offer again an offering unto the Lord in righteousness
Now the Lord Church has been on the earth 177 years longer than any other dispensaiton.
And this is all that Joseph met by what he said he was surprised that it happen on his watch it was a joyful awareness.
2 Cor 10
8 For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:
2 Cor.7
13 Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.
14 For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which I made before Titus, is found a truth.
15 And his inward affection is more abundant toward you, whilst he remembereth the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him.
16 I rejoice therefore that I have confidence in you in all things.
