What is the one important privilege of every spirit?

The beauties of spirit-life can never be portrayed in words. 

You can partake largely from the Fountain of Divine Wisdom and reap happiness—or grope in darkness under the canopy of idleness.

But progression— eternal progression— is the one important privilege of every spirit, perfectly annihilating misery and crowning every spirit with immortal glory. 

God is just everywhere, taking care of the whole human family, not forgetting or forsaking them in the spirit-world, but He is more accessible here, and His glory is doubly magnified, loving all from the richness of blessing and happiness in store for them. 

To obtain this, spirit-lives must labour as diligently for the good of all, as for themselves, and such as they are willing to share that mete out to others. 

Plant the feet upon good works, proceeding from the heart, for the attainment of holiness is our counsel to you and no fear need be entertained of eternal punishment.

Let purity of life render each one so far advanced in eternity, for what has been neglected must be restored, and finally, all become partakers of one blessing.
