Intelligence & Knowledge

Doctrine & Covenants 130

18 Whatever principle of ^aintelligence we attain unto in this life, it will rise with us in the ^bresurrection.

19 And if a person gains more ^aknowledge and intelligence in this life through his ^bdiligence and obedience than another, he will have so much the ^cadvantage in the world to come.

Neal A Maxwell May 2002 Women's Conf.


Intelligence signifies the totality of the soul and reflects the "Divine Nature"

2 Peter
1 Simon Peter, a ^aservant and an ^bapostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained ^clike precious faith with us through the ^drighteousness ^eof God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:

2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the ^aknowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,

3 According as his divine power hath given unto us ^aall things that pertain unto ^blife and ^cgodliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us ^dto glory and ^evirtue:

4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious ^apromises: that by these ye might be ^bpartakers of the ^cdivine ^dnature, having ^eescaped the ^fcorruption that is in the world through ^glust.
