The Endowment Ceremony

The endowment ceremony is by far the most lengthy of the LDS temple rituals. The ceremony is a reenactment of the Mormon version of the creation of the world and the fall of humanity. In times past it was acted out as a play. With the advent of technology most temples show the ceremony on video tape.

The reader will note that we have posted four versions of the endowment ceremony on our site. A visible comparison is made between the 1984 and 1990 versions only. Other comparisons to the 1879 and 1931 version can be made by the reader at their leisure.

The changes made to the endowment ceremony in 1990 are discussed as are the differences between the endowment ceremony and the teachings of the Bible. For more information we recommend reading Evolution of the Mormon Temple Ceremony: 1842-1990 by Jerald and Sandra Tanner.

The mercy seat lay exposed to mankind. There is no veil, anymore, between God and man. Jesus ripped it down. But Mormonism has hung up a new one." -Kathleen Baldwin

"When I was LDS (not that long ago) I saw a lot of things that made me question my membership in the LDS church, but I sure wouldn't admit it for a long time (not even to myself). I just knew there had to be good explanations for all of those silly criticisms, if I just looked in the right place...or prayed about it long enough. I was wrong." - Former Mormon, Marsha Bette More...

He Gave You Jesus - by Justjo

"Counterfeit, fake, bogus, imitation, forgery, fraud, copy.... We all recognize these words, as well as understand their meaning. There are many counterfeits out there. If they were easy to detect, they would not be called counterfeits. God gave us these wonderful books in the Bible to test these counterfeits. This is where we find our markers to detect them. The Holy Spirit does not contradict Gods word...." More...
