-angels
(heavenly beings who belong to this earth, who were already or who will be
engaged in mortality themselves -per
Joseph Smith) are deeply engaged in the activities of mortal men, women and
children. This experience with Nephi is
not an anomaly. They are aware and
available at a moment’s notice to respond to spiritual needs. They are of a matter and realm beyond our
sight unless we enter a spiritual plane as Nephi is here and as various
individuals have on rare but special occasions (including Mary, Daniel, the
young man in Elisha’s company, and many children across the dispensations,
etc.). What is their purpose? They appear to be teachers, messengers,
comforters, protectors and providers of spiritual support in much the same way
that we often provide moral support for one another. There is much we do not know about the
society of these spiritual beings, about the scope of their influence and the
terms of their assignments.
