Believe32 And this is my doctrine, and it is the doctrine which the Father hath given unto me; and I bear record of the Father, and the Father beareth record of me, and the Holy Ghost beareth record of the Father and me; and I bear record that the Father commandeth all men, everywhere, to repent and believe in me.
33 And whoso believeth in me, and is baptized, the same shall be saved; and they are they who shall inherit the kingdom of God.
34 And whoso believeth not in me, and is not baptized, shall be damned.
35 Verily, verily, I say unto you, that this is my doctrine, and I bear record of it from the Father; and whoso believeth in me believeth in the Father also; and unto him will the Father bear record of me, for he will visit him with fire and with the Holy Ghost.
36 And thus will the Father bear record of me, and the Holy Ghost will bear record unto him of the Father and me; for the Father, and I, and the Holy Ghost are one.
37 And again I say unto you, ye must repent, and become as a little child, and be baptized in my name, or ye can in nowise receive these things.
38 And again I say unto you, ye must repent, and be baptized in my name, and become as a little child, or ye can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God.
39 Verily, verily, I say unto you, that this is my doctrine, and whoso buildeth upon this buildeth upon my rock, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against them.
40 And whoso shall declare more or less than this, and establish it for my doctrine, the same cometh of evil, and is not built upon my rock; but he buildeth upon a sandy foundation, and the gates of hell stand open to receive such when the floods come and the winds beat upon them.
Repent
Be Baptized with water
Christ baptizes you with Fire and with the Holy Ghost
(The Holy Ghost tells you what to do
The Holy Ghost brings you to Christ
Christ brings you to the Father) 2 Nephi 32
So the question, more appropriately is, who has truly received the Holy Ghost. And once they have received it, are they receiving instruction, praying without fainting? Are they seeking true messengers from Father? Are they importuning the Lord? We've been given the pattern. Ask, seek, knock. That's the purpose of the temple endowment-not to magically make us worthy-but to teach us how to approach heaven. It is how we learn to walk the walk and not just talk about the walk. That brings us back to the allegory. Are we just barren branches, lofty and proud of ourselves for being such chosen branches of a chosen tree? Or are we working to produce celestial fruit? We must respond. If we aren't doing everything we can to respond, it's like not RSVPing to the wedding invite. It's like not filling our lamps with oil. We're just being idle and lazy and proud, set in our ways. And that makes us no different than the ancient Israelites or the Nephites at Zarahemla or King Noah's people in the land of Nephi.
