SALT LAKE TEMPLE
TEMPLES
Temples are not regular places ofSunday worship for members ofThe Church of
Jesus Christ ofLatter-Day Saints.They are quite different from the thousands
ofregular chapels or meetinghouses all over the world that are used for
Sunday services.
Anyone, regardless ofreligion, may enter a Latter-Day Saint meetinghouse and
attend services. However, because ofthe sacredness oftemples as "houses of
the Lord," only members ofthe Church who are in good standing are allowed to
enter the temples. A member must be observing the basic principles ofthe
faith and attest to that fact to his or her local leaders once every two years
in order to enter a temple. Ref. LDS Newsroom 2010

This correlated publication shows that in all ages ofthe world since the creation
ofAdam, God has desired His holy ordinances to be done in a house built to His
name, namely a temple ofGod.This compilation is also designed to show thatJesus's
plan ofredemption for all mankind includes vicarious ordinance work for the dead
to be done in God's holy temples by those living in the Dispensation ofthe Fullness
ofTimes. This was all in God's plan for the redemption of all mankind before the
foundation ofthis world.
