In Daniel 12:1-3, Daniel sees people who are resurrected one day. But what then? He writes that some are resurrected to eternal life, and some to disgrace and eternal contempt. Note that everyone's resurrection results in eternal existence somewhere. But how can we know our eternal destiny?

Humans have built many great cities over the centuries, from ancient Babylon to modern-day Tokyo. Abraham may have lived in tents as a foreigner in the Promised Land, but "he was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose architect and builder is God" (Heb. 11:10).

In Chariots of the Gods, Erich von Daniken argues that the Ark of the Covenant was, in fact, a radio transmitter than enabled Moses to communicate with beings in a spaceship that guided the Israelites across the wilderness during their exodus.

John writes of New Jerusalem, "Her radiance was like a precious jewel, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal" (Rev. 21:11). The most significant quality of New Jerusalem is stated at the outset: it is the radiance of God, the sign of his visible presence.

Scripture clearly affirms the reality of demons. In the New Testament alone, all of the writers except for the writer of Hebrews mention demons -- for a total of more than 100 references. Never does Jesus -- who often casts out demons -- scold anyone for believing in them and their power.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints teaches that baptism is essential to eternal life. Since many people have died without being baptized, or because they were baptized outside the LDS Church, they cannot reach the celestial kingdom -- without some aid. Hence, the LDS doctrine of baptism for the dead.
