"Our parents would take us to Temple Square in Salt Lake City on a regular basis. They would point to the temple and tell us they were married there, and because of that we would always be together as a family. What comfort that brought to a little boy whose biggest fear was that his parents might die. Now what comfort it brings to a grown man whose parents have passed on to the other side."
Not all members of the church have the luxury of living near a temple. However, numerous temples are being constructed all over the world.
"Our excitement over the building of temples is not shared by all. The adversary in particular is having a major temper tantrum as he sees his power threatened."
Satan has been very active in trying to prevent the building of a temple in Ghana. There are 85,000 members in West Africa, but only 400 have been endowed, because the nearest temple is in Johannesburg or London.
"The African people have waited for centuries to receive the fullness of the gospel and have been through much pain and suffering. Now, at last, they can receive every blessing available to God's children."
Lucifer is also aware of the many Africans who have accepted the gospel on the other side of the veil.
"When that temple is dedicated, a dam in the spirit world will break, and there will be a flood of humanity who have lived on the African continent flow into the temple of the Lord as their descendants do their work for them."
