“Three Heavens or Degrees”
Doctrine and Covenants 131:1–4
1 In the celestial glory there are three heavens or degrees;
2 And in order to obtain the highest, a man must enter into this order of the priesthood [meaning the new and everlasting covenant of marriage];
3 And if he does not, he cannot obtain it.
4 He may enter into the other, but that is the end of his kingdom; he cannot have an increase.
President Marion G. Romney said:
“The new and everlasting covenant of celestial marriage is the gate to exaltation in the celestial kingdom.”
(In Conference Report, Apr. 1962, 17.)
