FreddyV,

That is a really awesome chapter in the Book of Mormon. It has everything to do with that. I especially liked what you mentioned about having had that priesthood before this life in order to be in God's presence. It is they who are ready for a higher order. That sheds new light on some of those verses.

I would suggest reading some of Joseph Smith's words (Words of Joseph Smith pg. 243-248) on the subject. He introduces this topic in August 1843. He points out that there are 3 principles/orders of the priesthood: Levitical, Abrahamic/Patriarchal, and one which he mentions the prince of peace, Melchezidek, but I'm not convinced it is called strictly by his name necessarily. But we can get into what I mean by that via email if you'd like.

Lets study this out together Smile
