According to the Mormon faith a couple with their children and deceased ancestors can be sealed for time and all eternity in the kingdom of their God providing they remain worthy and keep all of the covenants that they have made. This is why they are seeking out their kindred dead as far back as they can, so that there is an unbroken line back to Adam.
The millennium will be a time to finalise this work when all of the spirit children of Heavenly father will have taken upon themselves bodies hereupon the earth. It will be a time when all of the records of every person that has ever lived will be found and the final great sealing of humanity will take place.
in a short way to say it you get to stay with your family forever, here on Earth and in the after life

The term "sealing" also has a more general meaning, but even that is most often related to an ordinance carried out by the Priesthood.
The sealing within an ordinance occurs when the ordinance requires that a second witness takes part in the act of the ordinance itself. For instance, when the sick are administered to, the first part of the ordinance takes the form of an anointing upon the sick person, then the 2nd Priesthood member, lays his hands upon the sick person's head, and "seals" the work done by the first. In point of fact, this is really what is done in a temple sealing anyway; because the couple to be sealed for eternity have already been previously married ... so the temple 'sealing' acts as the verification and second witness before God that the couple really did intend to be married, and have come before the Lord to seal the previous man-made ceremony and intent before God. It acts as a marriage ceremony repeated, but it now carries authroity that they may be married forever, beyond this life.
We also use the term, "sealed", in relation to a "man's or prophet's 'sealing' of his own testimony with his blood" - in that he seals as a 2nd witness of his life's living standards - those things that he believed in, with his blood - so that he may not only have lived for what he believed in, but has died for what he believed in as well. We call that 'sealing his testimony with his own blood'.
A sealing acts as a Confirmation of the first act.

What happens to a Mormon who gets married but doesn't go to the temple?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) believe that marriages performed outside of the Temple are for "time only", meaning that the marriage will only last until death, and the couple will not remain married in heaven. If the couple is not 'sealed' together in the temple in their lifetime, they can be sealed together by proxy after death. If this 'sealing' never takes place, the couple will not be married to each other in heaven. A 'sealing' is an ordinance that can be performed at the time of the legal marriage or any time after. To be 'sealed', a couple will kneel at an altar in the temple and their union will be blessed to last throughout eternity. If they each live faithful lives, they will not be separated at death, but will remain together in heaven. So if a Mormon gets married and never has their marriage 'sealed' in the temple, and nobody performs this sealing for them after they die, they will not be with their spouse in heaven.

What does sealed mean to a Mormon?
In the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church), "sealing" is a sacred Temple ceremony in which you are 'sealed' or connected to your spouse, parents, or children eternally. To be sealed to someone means that your relationship with them will continue in heaven. The sealing ceremony is a very simple ceremony that only takes place inside Mormon Temples. Those being sealed will kneel at an altar and a 'sealer' (someone ordained to perform sealings) will bless their relationship to last throughout eternity if they live faithful to God's commandments. A sealing ceremony can also be performed to seal deceased people to their spouse, parents, and children as well. When a Mormon couple says that they are being married in the Temple, what they are really doing is being 'sealed'. When a couple is sealed, any children born to them afterward will automatically be sealed to them. You can learn more about "sealing" in Mormonism at the "Related Links" below.

Answer The Mormon religion believes that the Heavenly Father (God) had several sons by his divine wife, two of these sons were Jesus and Lucifer. No other religion holds this belief and it is one of the reasons that all the Christian denominations reject Mormon claims that they are a Christian group. The Mormon religion has cartoons which illustrate this teaching.
