Question

if the angels are at war with each other,and they are with god,what does that mean 4 us when we get there?

Answer 1

Not sure what you mean when you say the angels are at war with each other and they are with God.

Before we were born on the earth, we lived in the presence of our Heavenly Father as one of His spirit children. In this premortal existence, we attended a council with Heavenly Father's other spirit children. At that council, Heavenly Father presented His great plan of happiness.

In harmony with the plan of happiness, the premortal Jesus Christ, the Firstborn Son of the Father in the spirit, covenanted to be the Savior. Those who followed Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ were permitted to come to the earth to experience mortality and progress toward eternal life. Lucifer, another spirit son of God, rebelled against the plan and "sought to destroy the agency of man." He became Satan, and he and his followers were cast out of heaven and denied the privileges of receiving a physical body and experiencing mortality.

Throughout our premortal lives, we developed our identity and increased our spiritual capabilities. Blessed with the gift of agency, we made important decisions, such as the decision to follow Heavenly Father's plan. These decisions affected our life then and now. We grew in intelligence and learned to love the truth, and we prepared to come to the earth, where we could continue to progress.

We are now experiencing mortal life. Our spirits are united with our bodies, giving us opportunities to grow and develop in ways that were not possible in premortal life. This part of our existence is a time of learning in which we can prove ourselves, choose to come unto Christ, and prepare to be worthy of eternal life. It is also a time when we can help others find the truth and gain a testimony of the plan of salvation.

When we die, our spirits will enter the spirit world and await the resurrection. At the time of the resurrection, our spirit and body will reunite, and we will be judged and received into a kingdom of glory. The glory we inherit will depend on the depth of our conversion and our obedience to the Lord's commandments. It will depend on the manner in which we have "received the testimony of Jesus."

A testimony of this plan of salvation can give us hope and purpose as we wrestle with the challenges of life. We can find reassurance in the knowledge that we are children of God and that we lived in His presence before being born on the earth. We can find meaning in our present life, knowing that our actions during mortality influence our eternal destiny. With this knowledge, we can base important decisions on eternal truths rather than on the changing circumstances of life. We can continually improve our relationships with family members, rejoicing in the promise that our families can be eternal. We can find joy in our testimonies of the Atonement and the Lord's commandments, ordinances, covenants, and doctrines, knowing that "he who doeth the works of righteousness shall receive his reward, even peace in this world, and eternal life in the world to come."

Answer 2

Mormons don't believe that the angels are at war with each other. Maybe this is misunderstood about the war in heaven before the earth was made. Is that what you are referring too?

I am talking about when Lucifer was kicked out for rebellion and 1/3 of Father's children went with him.

Answer 3

The war in Heaven ended a long time ago. That is why Satan was kicked out of heaven. We continue fighting the battle against evil here on earth. When you are tempted to do bad things that is the evil trying to over power you and get you to change side. When we die and enter into heaven the war for us will be over, but as long as you are on the earth you still fight the war.

Answer 4

I assume you are talking about
Revelations 12
7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

We believe that before we came to this earth our spirits lived with God and that he prepared this earth for us to come to and to get a body. The devil and his 'angels' (just another word for people) rebelled against God because they didn't like his plan and they wanted all the glory. They were cast out of heaven to earth and never will receive a body. Everyone else will. So what will happen to us, we came to earth, get a body and die, get resurrected and return to live with God. We progress. The others who rebelled will not progress because they did not accept Gods plan and never will get a body.

Answer 5

The battle (using the term losely) in heaven ended long ago. Satan and the angels that followed him were exiled, and cannot return. The "war" continues here but it will be ended.

Answer 6

Who told you the angels are at war with each other?..... whoever it is is either ignorant of the facts... decieved by the forces of evil... or... a part of the forces of evil... do not believe anything that person says.

Answer 7

It means we will be fighting for God's cause, by weapons or by words.

Answer 8

If you are member of the church the Body of Christ thru belief in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ, then YOU will be one who will rule over angels in heaven.

The WAR is about to end. I've read the end of the book...and WE win!
