Journal of Discourses 21:296; “…If plurality of marriage is not true or in other words, if a man has no divine right to marry two wives or more in this world, then marriage for eternity is not true, and your faith is in vain, and all the sealing ordinances and powers pertaining to marriages for eternity are vain, worthless, good for nothing; for as sure as one is true the other also must be true.” – Orson Pratt, Salt Lake City, July 18, 1880
Well this makes for a huge problem now doesn’t it? Based on statements from the latest LDS prophets, polygamy isn’t needed for salvation.
Mormon Doctrine, pg 578; “Plural marriage is not essential to salvation or exaltation. Nephi and his people were denied the power to have more than one wife and yet they could gain every blessing in eternity that the Lord ever offered to any people.”
Again, which teacher is correct? The confusion that persists in the Church is caused from their own false teachers. Every way you turn someone is contradicting someone else!
