REL 200C
Unit 3: Video Study
Before Watching the Videos
Step 1:
Read the following paragraph from The Family: A Proclamation to the World, and provide the information requested.
"
In THE PREMORTAL REALM, spirit sons and daughters knew and worshipped God as their Eternal Father and accepted his plan by which His children could obtain a
physical body and gain earthly experience to progress toward perfection and ultimately realize their divine destiny as heirs of eternal life.
The divine plan of happiness enables family relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave. Sacred ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it possible for individuals to
return to the presence of God and for families to be united eternally.”
1.
How does the doctrine of Pre-mortality impact or influence your understanding of the Plan of Salvation?
It shows that we are literal children of God. It also shows our choice to come to Earth, and our acceptance of God’s plan for us.
2.
Paragraph three mentions a “plan” that we accepted before we came into mortality. What kind of plan was it? How would you explain the plan to another? (simplified)
The “plan” is the Plan of Salvation, God’s eternal plan for all of His children. It includes our premortal existence, our Earthly life, and what happens after this life. It is incredible because the plan allows us to return to our Heavenly Father after this life and allows us to be with our families forever in eternity.
3.
How does obtaining a physical body help us gain experience and progress toward perfection? How do physical strengths and weaknesses contribute to our growth?
We are meant to become more like Heavenly Father, so we received a body like His. By coming to earth with imperfect bodies, we will face trials and hardships. But by going through these things, we learn to rely on the Savior, and through this grow closer to Heavenly father and the Savior.
4.
Why participate in ordinances? What role do they play in our progression and our ability to gain Eternal Life?

By participating in ordinances and covenants we make and keep promises between us and Heavenly Father, and He promises to bless us in return. Through these things, we are able to achieve eternal life.
While Watching the Videos
Step 2:
Watch the three
video segments linked on Canvas (I-Learn). While watching the videos, provide answers
to the following questions.
Questions:
1.
What doctrines or principles (core concepts) were you taught during these video segments?
The plan of salvation. We learned about premortal life, that we lived with our Heavenly parents, the Savior, and all of our mortal brothers and sisters. Everyone who has ever come or will come to this Earth chose the Plan of Salvation. We also learn the importance of families, and that the family organization we practice and strive for here on Earth carries on through eternal life with those whom we are sealed to. Sacred ordinances and covenants we make in temples make eternal life possible.
2.
What impressions came to you? What were you personally taught during this Video Deep Dive session?
I loved the reminder that there is more to covenants than blindly keeping them. You have to be truly converted. This is something I learned and saw during my mission, and this lesson put that concept back into focus for me.
