God's Throne and the Celestial, Terrestrial and Telestial Kingdoms. The Kolob Theorem allows us to see more clearly the home we lived in before we were born and the home we will live in after we die. These places appear more real; they are made of matter, some of very fine and pure matter, and exist in time and space. It helps us anticipate the reality of the glories of our future home.
Lynn, as a man of faith, unites in a single theory, scientific evidence, together with LDS sources to account for the form and structure of all of God's worlds, planets and suns. Lynn advocates the theory that the great star Kolob (which is near unto God's throne) is located in the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. He examines several basic ideas which grow out of this hypothesis.
Lynn M Hilton was born LDS in Arizona and raised in California. He was a B-24 bomber pilot in the US army for nearly three years during World War II. After the war he served, without purse or script, as a LDS missionary in the New England Mission, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
In 1952 he earned a PhD degree from the University of Chicago in Educational Administration and was appointed Professor of Education at BYU Provo. He served there for twelve years as Associate Dean of Continuing Education and founder and chairman of the BYU Salt Lake Adult Education Center.

Lynn and his first wife, Hope were called and set apart for a special mission to lead the original expedition to the Arab world to find the ancient trail of Lehi and Nephi and their family from Jerusalem to Bountiful where Nephi built his ocean going ship. They completed this assignment in 1976. Lynn's research was published in two long articles in the Ensign Magazine in 1976. The articles were entitled In Search of Lehi's Trail.
Lynn has lived twelve years in Arab countries and speaks Arabic. Lynn's first wife Hope, died in 1999. Two years later he met and married Nancy.
