Pres. James E. Faust

Second Counselor, First Presidency


Temple worship brings the blessings of eternity. The priority early church pioneers placed on temple building and temple worship continues today with 49 temples operating around the world.
"The deepest questions of our existence are answered in the temple. These answers tell us where we came from, why we are here, where we may go, and how we can cope with the matter of death . . . . The transcendent blessings of life and eternity are received within the sacred walls of the temple."
The Savior's supernal gift is the opportunity for eternal life. Families can have an eternal relationship through the sealing power exercised within the temple under priesthood authority.
"I urge all who have not yet received these greatest of all blessings within the walls of the temple to do whatever may be necessary to qualify to receive them. To those who have received these blessings, I invite you to prepare yourselves to savor again the experience of being within the sacred premises of the holy temples of God . . . ."
