In the End the World is Just

In the end the world is just
And you earn your own reward
Based on the things you have done
And to what you looked toward

Those with evil in their hearts
Will remain in their darkness
Those who lived where light imparts
Will be raised up glorious

Those who will know the fullness of joy
Will have sought brightness to their lives,
To be as His Saints, having thus joined
Into covenants with Jesus Christ

Pondering Alma 41

“Ye who are quickened by a portion of the celestial glory shall then receive of the same, even a fulness. And they who are quickened by a portion of the terrestrial glory shall then receive of the same, even a fulness. And also they who are quickened by a portion of the telestial glory shall then receive of the same, even a fulness. And they who remain shall also be quickened; nevertheless, they shall return again to their own place to enjoy that which they are willing to receive, because they were not willing to enjoy that which they might have received.” (D&C 88: 29-32.)


Truly, as Samuel warned, “whosoever perisheth, perisheth unto himself; and whosoever doeth iniquity, doeth it unto himself; for behold, ye are free; ye are permitted to act for yourselves” (Helaman 14:30). Because in that day of judgment the words of man will be evident,
because there will be nothing hidden and because we will have a perfect knowledge of our uncleanness as well as of our happiness, it will not be necessary for a designated person to consider our case and adjudicate our life. We will be what we have become. Our natures will have been prepared for that kingdom of glory which is most appropriate to the decisions we have made in mortality. Millet & McConkie, Doctrinal Commentary on the Book of Mormon, Vol 3, p. 306.
