After death, our physical body decomposes to its basic elements. Through the Atonement of Jesus Christ we may be freed from spiritual death as well as physical death.

These words are not always used to denote something different, but this distinction seems meaningful in the circumstances of the Fall.” 2 Even though Adam and Eve had not sinned, because of their transgression they had to face certain consequences, two of which were spiritual death and physical death. Physical death came to Adam and Eve at the end of their earthly lives, but spiritual death occurred as they were cast out of the Garden of Eden, being cut off from the presence of God (see Alma 42:9).

Paul explained to the Romans that Christ submitted Himself to death but, “being raised from the dead[,] dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him” (Rom. 6:9). Physical death has no dominion over Him; and ultimately, it has no dominion over us because of Christ.

Physical Death The writer of Ecclesiastes said, “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: “A time to be born, and a time to die.” (Eccl. 3:1–2; see also Alma 12:27.) Think of the alternative. Spiritual death is more likely when goals are unbalanced toward things physical.

Still, the death of those who alone held the authority to lead the Church could only mean the death of the Church itself.

To understand the meaning of death, we must appreciate the purpose of life. Not only would He atone for our sins, but as a part of that Atonement, He would also overcome the physical death to which we would be subject because of the Fall of Adam.

Bravado in the face of certain death, physical or spiritual, is foolhardy. If you persist in pursuing physical satisfaction without the sanction of heaven, you run the terrible risk of such spiritual, psychic damage that you may undermine both your longing for physical intimacy and your ability to give wholehearted devotion to a later, t

We came here also to receive physical bodies capable of procreation. But the God-given power to have children would not be placed in our physical bodies until we had arrived at an age of accountability and had matured in experience so we could exercise our free agency in using these powers in righteousness.

To hold a temple recommend is a priceless privilege and a tangible sign of obedience to God and His prophets. 16 Physical Preparation for the Temple One prepares physically for the temple by dressing properly.
