Without sin, there is no repentance, without repentance, there is no baptism for the remission of sins. Without sin and these ordinances, there is no need for the atonement.

This begs the question, then: Why are there symbols of the atonement in the terrestrial section of the endowment?

What will happen to the LDS church when the Millennium begins and those who have there calling and election made sure come with Christ in the clouds as the majority of the church membership with all the other churches of the world sit and watch?

I think I'll let YOU answer that Amonhi, but if the answer is that all the "watchers" get burned up; then that doesn't mesh very well with the Terrestrial section of D&C 76 where there are the "Honorable Men" of the earth that make it to the Terrestrial kingdom. Or does it?

1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3 And this will we do, if God permit.
