This book is written with members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in mind. It describes the doctrine of Election, and the process everyone must go through in order to obtain the highest degree of glory in the Celestial Kingdom. A young missionary kneels in prayer. His heart goes out to God on behalf of a young family he is teaching. He is seeking an answer to a question he has been pondering and struggling with for weeks: How do I reach this family I have grown to love? How do I help them solve the serious problems they are having? Suddenly, in a burst of insight and inspiration, the young man receives an answer. He receives the answer. In a small room, in a country far away, this young missionary has just experienced his first taste of true Charity. He is beginning to develop the divine character that will prepare him to live in the Celestial Kingdom. Years later the scene changes. The young missionary is now an old man with white hair. He is kneeling at an altar in the Temple of God with his eternal companion at his side. The Prophet of the Lord is there. They are about to receive a second anointing. They are going to be sealed to Eternal Life. They will be entering the Church of the Firstborn and will receive the gift of the Second Comforter. Soon, they will see their Lord and Savior face to face and feel the prints of the nails in His hands and feet. They will have their Calling and Election Made Sure! This book describes the process that everyone must go through in order to obtain the highest degree of glory in the Celestial Kingdom. In a simple and straightforward way, it explains the doctrines of Faith, Hope, and Charity, and the specific steps a person must take in order to obtain their Calling and Election to the kingdom of God.

Review:
Johann Minharo rated it: ***** Five Stars Wow. I was recommended this book from a friend and I take some church literature especially about shady/little-known topics to be quite nil in my point of view either because it speculates or says nothing I haven't heard before. This book opened my mind to simple little doctrines I have never heard but were always before my face and personally I enjoyed it right the moment I picked it up. But then I am more of the theologian at times so this thing attracts me a bit. Everything has a source here to church supported doctrine and nothing is pushed on you or speculated or even opinionated unless they specifically mention that and only then it is after much discussion about the facts at hand [such as a little side quest of info. if you [the reader:] were wondering]. Very good book and I would recommend this book only to people who were willing to open a little bit of history; as you might say. -- --goodreads.com

Sep 15, 2012 April Fear rated it ***** This is a book I will definitely read again.I better understand the need to improve in faith, hope, charity and sacrifice. These are the character traits needed to obtain the Celestial Kingdom. This small book is full of knowledge and insights that will help you to improve your spiritual plane and become the person God intended you to be. --goodreads.com

Jul 09, 2012 Kurt Edwards rated it **** I really liked this book. There are some teachings that I was unaware of that were spelled out very clearly. The authors are very good about clearly teaching new doctrine or should I say doctrine in a new light. I loved how the book gave steps to gain and use Faith, Hope, and Charity. I would recommend this book to anyone who feels that they could do better in life and ultimately want to have their calling and election made sure. --goodreads.com
