The Terrestrial Room

Salt Lake Temple Terrestrial Room
    The Terrestrial Room represents the Terrestrial Kingdom, the 2nd degree of glory, also called the glory of the moon.

    This room is more ornate and elevated higher than the Telestial Room to symbolize its higher status.

    In this room patrons make covenants that reinforce their faith and devotion to Jesus Christ, and promise to dedicate their lives to Him.

    After the Resurrection, those that lived good lives, but didn't endure to end or receive all of Christ's Priesthood ordinances and blessings will inherit the Terrestrial Kingdom and Glory.

"There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory."
--1 Corinthians 15:40-41

"And thus we saw the glory of the terrestrial which excels in all things the glory of the telestial, even in glory, and in power, and in might, and in dominion. And they who are not sanctified through the law which I have given unto you, even the law of Christ, must inherit another kingdom, even that of a terrestrial kingdom, And the glory of the terrestrial is one, even as the glory of the moon is one."
-- Doctrine and Covenants 76:91; 88:21; and 76:97
