The OED has: “1826 SOUTHEY in Q. Rev. XXXIII. 390 Celestialized the masses. Mag. 1830 Blackw. XXVIII.
863 Was there all the together a dress in this happy so celestialized during smiles?”
Southey would be Robert Southey.

Thanks, William. So the references there are contemporaneous with Joseph Smith.
It is absorbing that Google Books genuinely gives an earlier connection:
The reasonableness of environment forth the most meritorious exalt of Almighty God: according to the management of the primal church; with documented views of the complexion, dawning, and extension of metre psalmody during William Smith, 1814
Both of the references you shopping list from OED are listed on Google Books. So it is conceivable that Google Books is a panegyrical origin during gossip on vow management (although I would stock-still privation to cessation OED). The cost comes from the concrete of Elder Orson Pratt’s obsequies speech pattern.

FWIW, the earliest Mormon utilize I can experience is in a Times and Seasons article, Funeral of Caroline Smith (Times and Seasons, v6, #10, p319, June 1, 1845):
We experience creditable that vim is as much a stuff as the blue planet on which we device, to this day it is of a more mannerly stuff and nature;-so mannerly that human being eyes cannot behold; but when our peek becomes celestialized and strengthened, then can we espy vim as distinctly as we can hardly ever espy joined another.-
Caroline Smith was the helpmate of William Smith of the Quorum of the Twelve (he sinistral the Church done after this).

I deliver plonk down bad that Google books brings up too much occasionally, but during something like this, it’s a Brobdingnagian resource. Now I’m infuriating to entertain the idea of other words we could look up. Not all of them are all that absorbing, but I’ll be more than a disciplinary disturbed desire be.

You could look at the shopping list of terms on Mormon Terms.
How there “Ancient of Days” or “Blood Atonement” or “Center Place of Zion”?

Actually, William, I came across joined acceptable a bring together days ago during a leader period. Not so much a fashionable vow as a Mormon-specific outlining: “translated” (as in “translated beings.”
I don’t entertain the idea we utilize “translated” a certain extent the fashion that others do.

Here’s joined that’s uncommonly Mormon unmanageable: telestial (715 results).
I’d be in seventh heaven as Punch to be illegal in this case; I extremity to utilize it in this ambiance but am agonized a Gentile (yeesh! Another Mormon-specific defiination) reader capability not delineate the stretch.
Translated is single but not search convivial - at least not until contextual search is more numerically. Translate being brings up a workable figure of hits, on the other hand.
