In the midst of the sickness and debauchery of ‘Modern Life’, the priorities and proclivities of wretched individuals are given preference. “Vocal Minorities” presume the moral high-ground and demand bestial norms be established as the guiding principles of Mankind. The greatest casualty in this race to establish the wants of a fallen people as the Standard aspired to by Nations has been the Family. The United Nations is an avid co-conspirator in this attack.<\/p>\n
The Family Unit is the fabric which binds Society together, in order to ensure the survival of Mankind.<\/p>\n
Because the concept of Family has been lost to Public View, we take the opportunity to publish here the very best and intentionally clear prescription God has given. This is not at all politically correct but it is undeniably true and as such is detestable in the eyes of the World. That’s a good reason to publish:<\/p>\n
A PROCLAMATION<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n TO THE WORLD<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n THE FIRST PRESIDENCY AND COUNCIL OF THE TWELVE APOSTLES<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n \n WE<\/strong>, the First Presidency and the Council of the Twelve Apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and the family is central to the Creator\u2019s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.<\/span><\/p>\n \n ALL HUMAN BEINGS<\/strong> \u2013 male and female \u2013 are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual pre-mortal, mortal and eternal identity and purpose.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n IN THE PREMORTAL REALM<\/strong>, spirit sons and daughters knew and worshiped God as their Eternal Father and accepted His plan by which His children could obtain a physical body and gain earthly experience to progress toward perfection and ultimately realise his or her divine destiny as an heir of eternal life. The divine plan of happiness enables family relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave. Sacred ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it possible for individuals to return to the presence of God and for families to be united eternally.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n THE FIRST COMMANDMENT<\/strong> that God gave to Adam and Eve pertained to their potential for parenthood as husband and wife. We declare that God\u2019s commandment for His children to multiply and replenish the earth remains in force. We further declare that God has commanded that the sacred powers of procreation are to be employed only between man and woman, lawfully wedded as husband and wife.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n WE DECLARE<\/strong> the means by which mortal life is created to be divinely appointed. We affirm the sanctity of life and of its importance in God\u2019s eternal plan.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n HUSBAND AND WIFE<\/strong> have a solemn responsibility to love and care for each other and for their children. \u201cChildren are an heritage of the Lord\u201d (Psalms 127:3). Parents have a sacred duty to rear their children in love and righteousness, to provide for their physical and spiritual needs, to teach them to love and serve one another, to observe the commandments of God and to be law-abiding citizens wherever they live. Husbands and wives \u2013 mothers and fathers \u2013 will be held accountable before God for the discharge of these responsibilities.<\/span><\/p>\n \n THE FAMILY<\/strong> is ordained of God. Marriage between a man and a woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bounds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. By divine design, fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners. Disability, death, or other circumstances may necessitate individual adaptation. Extended families should lend support when needed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \n WE WARN<\/strong> that individuals who violate covenants of chastity, who abuse spouse or offspring, or who fail to fulfill family responsibilities will one day stand accountable before God. Further, we warn that the disintegration of the family will bring upon individuals, communities, and nations the calamities foretold by ancient and modern prophets.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n WE CALL UPON<\/strong> responsible citizens and officers of government everywhere to promote those measures designed to maintain and strengthen the family as the fundamental unit of society.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n You just can’t get it more real than that! If YOU think you know a better statement, let’s see it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In the midst of the sickness and debauchery of ‘Modern Life’, the priorities and proclivities of wretched individuals are given preference. “Vocal Minorities” presume the moral high-ground and demand bestial norms be established as the guiding principles of Mankind.
