It is clear that Lehi knew his calling and election—his citizenship in God’s eternal kingdom—had been made sure; he was sealed up to exaltation. Compare other such declarations among his posterity: Jacob (2 Nephi 2:3); Enos (Enos 1:27); Alma I (Mosiah 26:20); Alma II (Alma 36:28); Mormon (Mormon 2:19); and Moroni (Ether 12:37).
