Blainer) Glad to hear from you, TT EXPRESS. But what you are saying is
not correct. Here is what Mormons believe: All things, including
humans, were created spiritually first, and secondly in a physical
state. We believe the physical body was created second in order to
provide a tabernacle or temple for the spirit body. Therefore, when we
talk about Jesus and Satan as being spirits, we are talking about the
first existence, or the first estate, where we existed as spirit beings.
We AGREE that Satan never became a physical being. He remains a spirit.
He did not keep his first estate. One of my previous posts explains
this. (:>)
See Jude 1:6 "And the angels which kept not their first estate, but
left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under
darkness unto the judgement of the great day."
Also, Abraham 3:27-28
27. "And the Lord said, whom shall I send? And one answered like unto
the Son of Man: Here am I, send me. And another answered and said, Here
am I, send me. And the Lord said, I will send the first."
28. "And the second was angry, and kept not his first estate; and in
that day, many followed after him."
