ONE ETERNAL ROUND

From Alma 7:20 we read, concerning God:

I perceive that it has been made known unto you, by the testimony of his word, that he cannot walk in crooked paths; neither doth he vary from that which he hath said; neither hath he a shadow of turning from the right to the left, or from that which is right to that which is wrong; therefore, his course is one eternal round.

The phrase “one eternal round” above, can have many definitions. The one which seems to fit here is that the same plan of salvation, including faith, repentance, baptism and the Gift of the Holy Ghost, working in harmony with the Atonement of Christ, will bring anyone, anywhere, any time, who follows the laws of God, back into the presence of God to live with Him eternally.

Thus, in effect, we come from God (from premortality, to earth and then “full circle” back to Him, if we follow the gospel.) (Bishop, Stake President, Patriarch, BYU Education Week Instructor and author Dr. David J. Ridges in his book, The Book of Mormon Made Easier, Part 2, page 177)
