As I have read this quote from Joseph Smith, I wonder if it means something we may not have considered, yet something very simple. Consider these two quotes together.

"The Holy Ghost is now in a state of probation which if he should perform in righteousness he may pass through the same or a similar course of things that the Son has." (Joseph Smith, The Words of Joseph Smith, p. 245; Sabbath address, 27 August 1843)



"The Church of the Firstborn are those who are equal in all things with Christ and will receive an equal inheritance as Firstborn Sons and Daughters of God. There is no longer a separation between Christ and the latter-day Saints like there is in "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints". We, with Christ, are ALL "Firstborn" and heirs to the promise and all that God has."

Maybe what Joseph Smith was saying is that the Holy Ghost might become "Firstborn" and an heir to all that God has, receiving the same glory and fullness as Christ. Therefore, in some respects passing through a similar course of things that the Son has.

Can one become a member of the Church of the Firstborn, receive all that Christ and God has, and not pass through a similar course? Another way of asking that might be to say, would we not have a perfect knowledge of all that Christ passed through to atone for us, when we receive a fullness of His glory.
