The episode covering Doctrine and Covenants 129–132 reveals the "laws of eternity," taking some of the mystery out of eternal life and acting as a blueprint for exaltation. These sections teach profound truths, such as that God has a body “as tangible as man’s,” and that the same "sociality" that exists here will exist in heaven, making cherished family relationships eternal if sealed by proper authority.

Central to this plan is the principle that God operates by eternal laws, and every blessing, spiritual or temporal, is connected to the law upon which it is predicated (D&C 130:20–21); therefore, only covenants and agreements sealed by God’s authority are of "efficacy, virtue, or force in and after the resurrection" (D&C 132:7).

Following this path demands sacrifices in obedience (D&C 132:50)—a principle severely tested for early Saints through the command of plural marriage—but the Lord promises to reward those who trust Him, preparing them for the status of gods through faithful covenant living.
