“We want to sacrifice enough to do the will of God in
preparing to bring up those who have not had the privilege of hearing the
Gospel while in the flesh, for the simple reason that, in the spirit
world, they cannot officiate in the ordinances of the house of God.
They have passed the ordeals, and are beyond the possibility of personally
officiating for the remission of their sins and for their exaltation,
consequently they are under the necessity of trusting in their friends,
their children and their children’s children to officiate for them,
that they may be brought up into the celestial kingdom of God.
– Brigham Young, Discourses of
Brigham Young, 406
