14.
If you children remain faithful to the Savior, in His own time the Savior takes your spirit to Himself and it is eternally with the Lord. The body has no more life and it is buried in the earth and rests there until the Savior awakes it again and gives it life. And then He will make this worthless body most glorious and give it a beauty that is now incomprehensible to us for as He, our Savior, is now glorified — He shines like the sun — so He will make our bodies like unto His own.
