Examining the Mormon Doctrine of Eternal Families | Azrael Ondi-Ahman

...for unto the righteous is the knowledge given that in all the world are all made to become as brothers and sisters unto God, being the Father which is above all others.

Yeshua 23:66

44 Now on the morrow while yet the Master taught in the house of Simon, there came Zebedee the father of James and John.

45 For when he heard that they had forsaken all things to follow the Nazarene, he grew hot with anger and finding his sons in the presence of the Lord, he demanded of them an accounting.

46 And when they declared again their desire to follow after the Lord, forsaking all other things, the father turned unto Yeshua, saying:

47 “What manner of man would rob a father of his sons? For God did give unto me both James and John, that they might inherit unto themselves the fruits of their father’s labor. Why, therefore, have you stolen away their hearts from me?”

48 When he heard these things, Yeshua spoke unto the man, saying: “Is it not said among you that you are the children of God?

49 If you, therefore, be a child of God, and these two be the children of God also: How then can you be the father, seeing that you are all the children of one Father?

50 For I tell you truly that the time now is when there is come a Father which is preferred above all others, and unto him shall the children of men come seeking, that they may possess a fullness of heavenly things...”

Yeshua 7:44-50

54 Yet notwithstanding all these things, still shall we grant to even all our children the Principles and Rights of Friendship and Continued Associations, which very principle and right shall become the law which the House of Mithron shall administer.

55 For in the mortal life do the children of our soul forge for themselves a great variety of friendships, which friendships do prove necessary to the happiness of the spirit and soul together.

56 And even though in the kingdom of Heaven one friend should inherit the first principality, while still another friend inherits the second or third principality, yet is it needful that the friendship of both continue; for in the absence of such friendship is there found the loss of something dear, and in this loss would all Heaven be made less because of it.

57 For friendships are a precious thing, and this we must protect for the joy of all our children together; for friendship is a gift of the heart from one soul unto another, which very friendship even death cannot pale or break asunder.

58 Thus through the Principles and Rights of Friendship and Continued Associations shall every kingdom and principality become most deeply aware of each the other, to share through friendship the mysteries and wonders of all greater and lesser glories in the kingdoms of our power;

59 Causing that every man and every woman might go beyond the boundaries of that kingdom wherein they dwell, to see again the friend they love most deeply, if it so be that they should petition the House of Mithron for love’s sake only.

4th Endowment 13:54-59
