This podcast explains the conditions in celestial paradise for the disembodied spirits of the dead who qualified in this life to enter paradise at the time of their death. Baptism is the gateway ordinance into the celestial kingdom and to enter paradise between death and resurrection. There are three classes of spirits in celestial paradise, just as there are three classes within the celestial kingdom. This podcast endeavors to explain (or give possible explanations) to distinguish on degree of glory from another, including the difference of being born in the covenant or being sealed to a parent by the ordinance of adoption. The spirits of the dead can also qualify to enter paradise after they receive the gospel in spirit prison and have the vicarious ordinances of baptism and confirmation performed for them by a mortal person. The resurrection of the dead will begin with the disembodied spirits in paradise worthy of exaltation. The spirits that do not qualify for exaltation will be resurrected after the exaltation-worthy persons.
