FYI: "Thou being willing and anxious to imitate them [resurrected spirits], waiting and desirous to obtain a body, a resurrection and exaltation also, and having obtained permission, madest a covenant with one of thy kindred spirits to be thy guardian angel while in mortality, also with two others, male and female spirits, that thou wouldst come and take a tabernacle through their lineage, and become one of their offspring. You also chose a kindred spirit whom you loved in the spirit world (and who had permission to come to this planet and take a tabernacle), to be your head, stay, husband and protector on the earth and to exalt you in eternal worlds. All these were arranged, likewise the spirits that should tabernacle through your lineage." (John Taylor, The Mormon, August 29. 1857, New York City. Quoted in Nels B. Lundwall, The Vision, Bookcraft: Salt Lake City, n.d., p. 146.)
