We must remember and come to understand what it means to be "children of the covenant." If we accept the Lord and are obedient to His commandments, we then are entitled to receive the blessings of the Abrahamic Covenant. Elder Nelson said, "The new and everlasting covenant allows us to qualify for marriage in the temple and be blessed to "come forth in the first resurrection' and 'inherit thrones, kingdoms, principalities, and powers, dominions, ... 'to [our] exaltation and glory in all things."
~ Quotes from Elder Russell M. Nelson, "Children of the Covenant," General Conference, April 1995.
