“Our existence is eternal. We use words rather loosely when we speak of the “life before this, and this life, and the next life,” as though we were a cat of nine lives, when as a matter of fact we only have one life. This life we speak of did not begin with mortal birth. This life does not end with mortal death. There is something that is not created or made. The scriptures called it “intelligence,” which at a certain stage in the preexistence was organized into a “spirit.” After that spirit had grown to a certain stature it then was given the opportunity by an all-wise Father to come into another stage for its development. It was added upon, and after having lived its span and having attained to its purpose in mortality, another change took place. We go, not into another life, in fact, but into another stage of the same life . There is something which was not created or made, and something which does not die, and that something shall live on forever.” Harold B. Lee, The Teachings of Harold B. Lee, p. 74
