Defender of Marriage

Heavenly Father created the earth for us to come and experience mortality. God commands that marriage is between a man and a women which is central to his plan.

"Changes in the civil law do not, indeed cannot, change the moral law that God has established."

Although the laws are changing around us does not mean that doctrine will. We all have a purpose and rule here on earth that will help us achieve eternal life. We are taught this in “The Family: A Proclamation to the World.” (Links to an external site.) 

This Proclamation outlines specific rules and duties we have here on earth, I believe the things outlined in it are of God. I love that even though it was written many years ago it is very relevant and applicable to our times now.

The proclamation clearly states that marriage is between a man and a woman and is ordained of God. We were created to come to earth and live a mortal life. We were created to on this earth be husband and wife and build up our kingdom. Family is essential to the plan of happiness.

Although I do not personally agree with same sex marriage the Gospel continues to teach us to love all. Which I believe means treat others with kindness as well even if I have a difference of opinion than someone.

For anyone who has questions about same-sex attraction and the church I would encourage them to read the link below.
