While the knowledge of the higher temple ordinances, the ordinations of Kings and Priests and Queens and Priestesses, is more common today than it was 50 years ago, many are still left wondering what the exact purpose was of such lofty ordinations in mortality.
In the LDS Church the Second Anointing is commonly understood to be about having one’s Exaltation sealed upon them, and that is it. Some Fundamentalists believe a little more about it, and understand that it is about receiving all the keys of the priesthood, including the sealing power, to utilize as God directs the recipient to use them. But was that the full understanding of this new order of the Priesthood introduced by Joseph Smith in Nauvoo?
This pamphlet is rightfully subtitled The Nauvoo Priesthood Developments Part 2, because it enlarges upon the ultimate purpose of the “Highest Order of the Melchizedek Priesthood” that Joseph Smith introduced in Nauvoo.
This then is the subject of this issue of One Eternal Round — to lay out the complete picture of the Priesthood of Kings and Priests: the Family Kingdom doctrine as it was originally taught, and the vision of it creating “the Kingdom of God in a Family Capacity”.
