Parallels in the Plan of Salvation
It struck me recently that there are some pretty strong parallels between the 4th Article of Faith and the traditional schematic of the Plan of Salvation
Faith –> Premortal Life We don’t have experience, we have to take the plan and basically everything else on trust
Repentance –> Mortality A time of change and growth
Baptism –> the Spirit World A spiritual state after symbolically or literally dying
the Gift of the Holy Ghost –> the Three Degrees of Glory the presence of a member of the Godhead
Bonus step below the fold
Endure to the end –> the Celestial Kingdom Continuing on, not treating confirmation/heaven as your final destination but repeating the cycle of creation and growth for yourself or others

The way I understand the tokens in the temple, this is startling.
Curiouser and curiouser.
