What is the gathering for?

Author- George Albert Smith

What is the gathering for? Why was it that the Savior wished the children of Israel to gather together? It was that they might become united and provide a place wherein he could reveal unto them keys which have been hid from before the foundation of the world; that he could unfold unto them the laws of exaltation, and make them a kingdom of Priests, Ex. 19:6 even the whole people, and exalt them to thrones and dominions in the celestial world.
