"For a celestial reward, it is absolutely essential that we remain faithful to the end. There is nothing in the Church that is directed toward the telestial or terrestrial kingdoms. For us it is a celestial goal every step of the way."
-Jeffrey R. Holland
The whole purpose of our lives here is to become more like our Savior Jesus Christ and eventually get back to him and be able to live with our Heavenly Father again. If that is our goal, then we should settle for nothing less than celestial things. We should not spend our time doing things that will not help us get to our eternal home. We need to remain focused every second of the day and be constantly moving forward towards our goal. The church is one amazing way that will help keep us moving forward.
Just like Elder Holland said, the Church is only directed us towards the celestial kingdom, so if we stay with the Church there is no way that we can get anywhere, but the celestial kingdom, our eternal home.
