What do you know about the spirit prison? The scriptures in the New Testament and Book of Mormon say that in between the death and resurrection of Christ he visited the spirits in prison. Later we learn that he was there just long enough to organize the missionary force and give the authority to begin the work of redemption there. There are two categories of spirits as soon as they die. the teachers and the learners, well and maybe the refuse-to-learners. progression is halted until you pass through the gate of baptism. that's why we have temples, to do the heavenly work for those who have not had the opportunity on earth. for those who have not had the opportunity to learn of Christ. for those who have not understood the plan of salvation. this is my belief, and it seems to agree with yours. that is another thing i don't understand about you.
