If baptism is essential for salvation, why have billions of God's children lived and died without ever having the opportunity?

What if that isn't a flaw in God's plan? What if we've misunderstood the timeline?

In this episode of Faithful Misfit, we explore a fascinating possibility: Maybe God's plan was never designed for everyone to enter His covenant during mortality. Maybe this life is about receiving bodies, exercising agency, and gaining experience, while God patiently establishes and gathers a covenant people to help bring His entire family home.

Using Jacob 5's allegory of the olive tree, the Abrahamic covenant, missionary work in the spirit world, temple ordinances, and the Millennium, we explore how these seemingly separate doctrines might fit into one extraordinary picture.

What if being God's chosen people isn't about being more special—but about being given a responsibility to bless everyone else?

And what if the greatest gathering of God's children is still ahead of us?

This isn't a declaration of doctrine. It's a faithful exploration of a possibility that might change the way we understand God's plan, the purpose of Israel, and the destiny of His children.

Because maybe God's plan isn't behind schedule. Maybe we're just earlier in the story than we think.
