We are Literal Children of God, Part of His Family Unit "We are the children of God, our Heavenly Father. We are members of his family. We are his spirit offspring. We were born in the premortal life as spirit beings, sons and daughters of a glorified, perfected, exalted being. This holy being himself lives in the family unit. He has a fullness of glory and power and might and dominion . . . We are the literal offspring of the most glorious personage of whom it is possible to conceive. He is God Almighty, our Heavenly Father." (Bruce R. McConkie, "Households of Faith," Ensign, Apr. 181, p. 4.)
