Temples
1. “My brothers and sisters, temples are more than stone and mortar. They are filled with faith and fasting. They are built of trials and testimonies. They are sanctified by sacrifice and service.”
2. "Plead with you to teach your children of the temple’s importance."
President Thomas S. Monson "The Holy Temple-A Beacon to the World" April 2011 General Conference
3. "It is a place of peace, solitude, and inspiration. Regular attendance will enrich your life with greater purpose. It will permit you to provide deceased ancestors the exalting ordinances you have received. Go to the temple. You know it is the right thing to do. Do
it now."
Elder Richard G. Scott "Receive the Temple Blessings" April 1999 General Conference
4. "Come to the temple now. It will greatly bless your life and provide essential ordinances for those beyond the veil that they cannot obtain by themselves."
Elder Richard G. Scott "Receive the Temple Blessings" April 1999 General Conference
5. "Within the temple, all are dressed in spotless white to remind us that God is to have a pure people."
Elder Russell M. Nelson "Personal Preparation for Temple Blessings" April 2001 General Conference
6. "Teachings of the temple are beautifully simple and simply beautiful. They are understood by the humble, yet they can excite the intellect of the brightest minds."
Elder Russell M. Nelson "Personal Preparation for Temple Blessings" April 2001 General Conference
7. "We should not be surprised by Satan’s efforts to thwart or discredit temple worship and work. The devil despises the purity in and the power of the Lord’s house. And the protection available to each of us in and through temple ordinances and covenants stands as a great obstacle to the evil designs of Lucifer."
Elder David A. Bednar "Honorably Hold a Name and Standing" April 2009 General Conference
8. "The fire of the covenant will burn in the heart of every faithful member of this church who shall worship and honorably hold a name and standing in the Lord's holy house."
Elder David A. Bednar "Honorably Hold a Name and Standing" April 2009 General Conference
9. "Temple work is primarily concerned with service in behalf of the sons and daughters of God who have passed beyond the veil of death. God is no respecter of persons. If the living in all nations are deserving of the saving ordinances of the gospel, then those of all past generations must likewise be deserving."
President Gordon B. Hinkley "Of Missions, Temples, and Stewardship" October 1995 General Conference
10. "Our people cannot partake of all of the blessings of the gospel unless they can receive their own temple ordinances and then make these ordinances available to those of their kindred dead and others."
President Gordon B. Hinkley "Of Missions, Temples, and Stewardship" October 1995 General Conference
