| | Exaltation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Exaltation or Eternal Progression is a seminal doctrinal belief among devout members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church or Mormons) that mankind, as spirit children of their Father in Heaven, can become like, not equivalent to, Him. | | | Exaltation is the ultimate goal of most faithful LDS Church members. | | | One ordinance required of all those who hope to achieve exaltation is to be sealed in one of the temples of the LDS Church. |

| | Exaltation to the heavenly temple, filled and formed by the Glory of the endoxate Spirit, was the reward of the incarnate Son. | | | In dealing with each aspect of Christ's exaltation, we have traced it to a covenant transaction—his throne rights as royal scion and temple builder to the Davidic covenant (2 Samuel 7) and his heavenly enthronement as priest-king to the covenant oath of Psalm 110. | | | For Christ's efficacious gathering of God's elect is accomplished through the power of the Spirit whom he bestowed on his disciples at Pentecost, and this descent of the Spirit testifies to the prior ascent of the Son to receive the Spirit from the Father. |

| | The feast of the Exaltation is one of the twelve great feasts of our Church and has a one day pre-feast and a seven day post-feast. | | | The feast of the Exaltation owes its origin to the consecration of the Church of the Resurrection of the Lord, which was erected on Golgotha, in Jerusalem, by Emperor Constantine the Great. | | | The institution of the Feast of the Exaltation was first preceded by the discovery or the finding of the sacred wood of the Cross upon which Christ died. |

| | Perhaps the two teachings of the LDS Church that non-LDS find most unusual are the doctrines of exaltation and the plurality of gods. | | | Many of the Church's detractors claim that these doctrines teach polytheism, the belief in and the worship of many gods as was done by the ancient Greeks and Romans. | | | The highest reward, according to Mormon belief, is that of "Exaltation". |

| | Exaltation (i.e., man becoming a God) is an utterly pagan doctrine, which, by the way, did not originate with the Mormons but rather was quite pervasive among the pagans, centuries before Mormonism. | | | Exaltation in LDS vernacular, simple means: man progressing to the status of Godhood (salvation in its truest sense). | | | Thus, the ultimate goal for the Mormon male is "Exaltation." Exaltation is the heart of Mormon theology. |
