永恒的承诺
To Latter-day Saints, a temple sealing is one of the most meaningful promises that can be made.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believes that marriage and families can be eternal. This differs dramatically from the common wedding vow, “til death do we part.”
In temples of the Church of Jesus Christ, promises are made between the man and woman getting married and God. In this ceremony, the couple promises that they will continue to be a family unit forever, thus binding the children with their parents and the husband with their wife for the eternities. It is known as sealing because it seals families together for this life and the next.
您知道吗?
耶稣基督后期圣徒教会的成员不想再被称为“摩尔门教徒”了?“摩尔门教徒”一词是一个绰号,源自一本名为“摩尔门经:基督的另一部约书”的圣经。 学到更多。
摩门教徒一词可以在诸如摩门经之类的专有名称中使用,也可以在摩门教足迹等历史表达中使用。但是,我们要求您将我们称为“后期圣徒”或“恢复的耶稣基督教堂的成员”。
谁可以参与?
Only worthy members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are able to participate and view these ceremonies within temples. However, it is a common practice for these couples who have family that cannot enter the temple to also practice a civil marriage so that they can participate, as well.
由于仪式的神圣性,只后期圣徒允许进入。
代替死者
This sealing ceremony is also performed for ancestors that have already passed. Volunteers in the temple act as a proxy and seal families together one at a time. Those that have passed on and have a sealing performed on their behalf then have the opportunity to accept or reject that sealing and the associated promises.
每年在奥克兰圣殿中都有进行成千上万的圣殿印证仪式。
