[§188] God Created Kolob as the First Celestial Spirit World

This podcast explains the meaning and background of Kolob, which is identified in Abraham 3 and Facsimile 2 in The Pearl of Great Price.  Kolob was the first spirit world created by God the father during the spirit creation. It possessed more intelligence (light or truth) than all other spirit worlds created by God. After God created Kolob as the first spirit world in this generation, it became the spirit world within this earth, which Jesus Christ created last among all the physical worlds of his creation. Kolob is, in many respects, in the similitude of Jesus Christ.   Figure 1 in facsimile number 2 is an Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol that depicts Kolob. Through the spirit of Revelation, Joseph Smith explained that this image signifies Kolob, which was the first spirit creation nearest to the throne and celestial residence of God. It is a great governing star, first in government and last pertaining to the measurement of time. According to God’s reckoning of time, one day on Kolob is equal to a thousand earth years. Kolob and this earth shared the same reckoning of celestial time until the fall of Adam. After the resurrection of this earth, both will again be governed by celestial time and this earth with Kolob as its inward spirit will again be filled with glory as the great governing star of the universe. -------------------------- Chapters 00:00 Welcome to Unveiling Jesus Christ 00:30 Introduction 01:36 Facsimile No. 2 in the Book of Abraham 10:15 Abraham’s knowledge of the Stars 13:01 Kolob: First World of the Spirit Creation 18:17 Kolob: First in Government 30:49 Reckoning of Time on Kolob 42:06 Kolob: The Spirit World Closest to God -------------------------- 🔗 Where to Find More from Unveiling Jesus Christ ► YouTube: ‪https://www.youtube.com/@UnveilingJesusChrist ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UnveilingJesusChrist ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/johncassinat/ ► Website: https://www.unveilingjesuschrist.com/ -------------------------- 📚 Purchase the Book of Revelation Doctrinal Commentary: Unveiling Jesus Christ ◆ Volume 1: https://store.bookbaby.com/book/the-book-of-revelation-doctrinal-commentary-1 ◆ Volume 2: https://store.bookbaby.com/book/the-book-of-revelation-doctrinal-commentary-2 💥 Use code "Revelation30" to get 30% off when purchasing both volumes together.
