The Callings and the Elections

The Callings and the Elections:

When it comes to the Callings and the Elections being made Sure, it is of paramount value to study the various Callings and the various Elections that we receive as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The ones I will discuss here are only available through the Church of Jesus Christ, in our case the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

When a boy or a man is baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he receives a Calling to one day be Ordained into the Patriarchal Order of the Priesthood of God the Father. At the point of a man's baptism into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the man receives a Calling to come to a complete fullness of the Melchizedek Priesthood or Patriarchal Order of the Priesthood at one day in his future. Later that boy or man is Elected or Ordained to the Patriarchal Order of the Priesthood of God the Father when he is given the Aaronic Priesthood.

When a girl or a woman is baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, she receives a Calling to one day be Ordained into the Matriarchal Order of the Priestess-hood of Goddess the Mather. At the point of a woman's baptism into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the woman receives a Calling to come to a complete fullness of the Matriarchal Order of the Priestess-hood at one day in her future, a Calling to become like Goddess the Mother in every way possible. Later that girl or woman is Elected or Ordained to the Matriarchal Order of the Priestess-hood of Goddess the Mather when she is ordained to the Priestess-hood in the LDS Temples.

Men receive their Calling to a fullness of the Priesthood when they are baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Women receive their Calling to a fullness of the Priestess-hood when they are baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

It's all very orderly, because God the Father and Goddess the Mother ordained it or set it in this order.

It is my ongoing personal claim that women receive all of their Fore-Ordinations and all of their future Ordinations or Elections into the Priestess-hood and the Matriarchal Order while in the Celestial Kingdom in Heaven.

Notice that Hugh Nibley repeatedly teaches us in his books that the LDS Temples are a little piece of Heaven here on earth. The LDS Temples are Heavenly Soil, or little pieces of the Celestial Kingdom here on this earth. Notice that baptized LDS Women receive their Ordinations or Elections into the Priestess-hood or the Matriarchal Order of the Priesthood there in the LDS Temple, there in the piece of the Celestial Kingdom that is here on this earth. The Ordinations or Elections of Women into the Priestess-hood or the Matriarchal Order of the Priesthood all take place out of the sight of the world where nobody is supposed to see them happening.

Notice the order or the logic of it, because God the Father and Heavenly Mother ordained it to be this way or elected for it to be this way.

The Ordinations or Elections of the women take place in private in the Celestial Kingdom. So, there is no direct readable revelation as to the terms of those Ordinations or Elections, but we can assume their their Ordinations or Elections mirror those that the men receive.

However, there is plenty of material revealed to us about the Ordinations or the Elections that the men receive into the Priesthood, including the terms of the contract and the associated blessings that are promised. To see it all and understand it all, you need to read and then re-read and then pray about the Oath and Covenant of the Priesthood as found in D&C 84.

Notice carefully that the D&C is accepted by Covenant and is made Binding upon us (male and female) during the Endowment of Power that takes place in the LDS Temples.

Now for the scripture. Read it, re-read it, study it, ponder it, and pray about it, because it is Revelation direct from God the Father. It discusses the Ordination or the Election of men to the Patriarchal Priesthood of God the Father.

D&C 84: 33-43:

33 For whoso is faithful unto the obtaining these two priesthoods of which I have spoken, and the magnifying their calling, are sanctified by the Spirit unto the renewing of their bodies.

34 They become the sons of Moses and of Aaron and the seed of Abraham, and the church and kingdom, and the elect of God.

35 And also all they who receive this priesthood receive me, saith the Lord;

36 For he that receiveth my servants receiveth me;

37 And he that receiveth me receiveth my Father;

38 And he that receiveth my Father receiveth my Father's kingdom; therefore all that my Father hath shall be given unto him.

39 And this is according to the oath and covenant which belongeth to the priesthood.

40 Therefore, all those who receive the priesthood, receive this oath and covenant of my Father, which he cannot break, neither can it be moved.

41 But whoso breaketh this covenant after he hath received it, and altogether turneth therefrom, shall not have forgiveness of sins in this world nor in the world to come.

42 And wo unto all those who come not unto this priesthood which ye have received, which I now confirm upon you who are present this day, by mine own voice out of the heavens; and even I have given the heavenly hosts and mine angels charge concerning you.

43 And I now give unto you a commandment to beware concerning yourselves, to give diligent heed to the words of eternal life.

What are the men Elected to when they receive the Priesthood or the Patriarchal Order of the Priesthood? They are Elected to God or given the right to become the Elect of God; they are Elected to Godhood; they are Elected to become one day like God the Father.

What are the men Promised when they receive the Priesthood or the Patriarchal Order? They are Promised all that the Father has and all that the Father IS. The men are Promised to become Gods or God the Father one day.

When is this particular Election made Sure? It is made Sure when a man becomes God the Father over his own Kingdom one day. That's as Sure as it gets.

Now, lets look at the mirror side of it all. I will base the mirror side of it or the complementary side of it off of the Oath and Covenant of the Priesthood that the men receive.

What are the women Elected to when they receive the Priestess-hood or the Matriarchal Order of the Priesthood? They are Elected to Goddess-hood or given the right to become the Elect of God; they are Elected to Priestess-hood; the women are Elected to become one day like Heavenly Mother.

What are the women Promised when they receive the Priestess-hood or the Matriarchal Order? The women are Promised or Elected to all that Heavenly Mother has and to all that Heavenly Mather IS. The women are Promised to become Queens or Goddesses or to become Heavenly Mother one day.

When is this particular Election made Sure? It is made Sure when a woman becomes Goddess the Mother and a Queen over her own Kingdom one day. That's as Sure as it gets.

It's all very orderly and logical, because God the Father and Heavenly Mother ordained it and fore-ordained it to be this way. God's House is a House of Order, a House of Ordinations and Ordinances. Ordinations are Elections. Ordinances are also Elections.

Notice that there are many different Callings and many different Elections that we can have made Sure. Who are the ones who make them Sure? God the Father and Heavenly Mother. How do we know that our Callings and our Elections have been made Sure? When the men become like God the Father and the women become like Heavenly Mother, when we step into their shoes and become them.

Notice that it is completely illogical and completely inappropriate for a man to be Ordained into the Matriarchal Order or the Priestess-hood. It is not appropriate for a man to be Ordained or Elected to become a Queen.

Likewise, it is completely illogical and completely inappropriate for a woman to be Ordained into the Patriarchal Order or the Priesthood. It is not appropriate for a woman to be Ordained or Elected to become a King or a Man of Holiness.

The Priestess-hood is for the women, and the Priesthood is for the men, because God the Father and Heavenly Mother ordained or elected for it to be that way.

Notice that all Ordinations and Ordinances in the LDS Church are Elections of some kind, the transferal of Heavenly Rights to the recipient. It's all designed to help the men to become exactly like God the Father; and, it's all designed to help the women to become exactly like Heavenly Mother. It all makes logical sense, because the Gods ordained or elected for it to be that way.
