Who Is This Melchisedec? 65-0221E, You will never be the WORD unless you was a thought at the beginning. That proves the predestination of God…You had to be in the thinking first. But you see, in order to stand temptation you had to bypass the theophany; YOU HAD TO COME DOWN HERE IN FLESH TO BE TEMPTED BY SIN.” (Caps mine –PMD)
The above quote is a heretical Mormon teaching, there is not a shred of evidence of that in Scripture.
See the LDS quote below: Earth life, though brief, is crucial to us in our quest for eternal life. Here we receive bodies of flesh and bones and are tested in all things. Those who learn obedience and gain self-mastery will return to live with God the Eternal Father. Available from: Doctrines of the Gospel Student Manual, Chapter 10: The Purpose of Earth Life, (2000), 27–29. https://www.lds.org/…/doctrines-of-the-gospel-student-manua…. Accessed 27 November, 2015.
