THE CURRENT TEACHING OF THE MORMON CHURCH:
We are all literal spirit-children of God.
"All men and women are in the similitude of the universal Father and Mother, and are literally the sons and daughter of Deity"’ as spirits they were "offspring of celestial parentage." Joseph Fielding Smith, Man: His origin and Destiny, Pgs 351, 355

| May be, sons of God | Phl 2:15 |
| Should be called, sons of God | 1Jo 3:1 |
