	Sealing (Mormonism) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In Mormonism, a sealing is an ordinance (ritual), generally performed in temples, that "seals" familial relationships, purportedly making possible the existence of family relationships throughout eternity.
		Sealings are typically performed as marriages or as sealing of children to parents.
		A sealed couple who have successfully kept their religious covenants, and whose sealing remains in force after death is said to have their sealing “sealed by the Holy Spirit of Promise”.

	Ordinance (Mormonism): (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In Mormonism, an ordinance is a religious ritual of special significance, often involving a covenant with God.
		Sealings are ceremonies in which husband is bound to wife, and children to parents, for all eternity.
		The emphasis on the physical aspect of the ordinance is the basis for the Mormon practice of performing ordinances vicariously for the dead.

		The Church consider the temple ordinances, including sealings and the Endowment, to be very sacred and confidential.
		In Mormonism, an ordinance is a ritual of special significance, usually involving a covenant with God.
		Most ordinances are performed outside the temple; for example, Mormons perform Baptisms, Confirmations, the Sacrament, ordinations to the Priesthood, patriarchal blessings, blessing and anointing of the sick, and blessings of newborn children, in homes or meetinghouses.

		Chief among these is The Book of Mormon, which members believe is a record that was kept by ancient Prophets who lived in the Americas and was engraved on Golden Plates, translated by the power of God through the Urim and Thummim.
		Although Mormon theology sees the Heavenly Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost as separate beings, they are considered to be "one God" in most every other possible sense â” most importantly they are one in purpose.
		Mormonism posits most of the same attributes to the members of the Godhead that Trinitarian Christianity posits to the Trinity : Omnipotence, Omniscience, Omnibenevolence, Eternal, Immutable, Immortality, and Immanence in the universe but not Transcendence of it.

	Sealing Men to Men (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		As most people who are familiar with Mormonism know, dedicated Mormons believe in sealing women to men and children to their parents for all eternity.
		Few people, however, are aware of the fact that the early Mormons sealed living men to other men in an unusual ceremony known as "the law of adoption." Thus a man could have any number of men adopted to himself as his sons for eternity.
		Although the sealing of men to men who were not of their own lineage seemed to revive for a season, it eventually suffered a death blow.

		In Mormonism, a sealing is an ordinance performed in temples that "seals" familial relationships, or ensures the existence of the family throughout eternity.
		The sealing room in the Washington, D.C. LDS temple contains an altar at the center.
		However, "Eternal Marriages" are also performed vicariously for the deceased so that once all the prior temple ordinances are completed for a deceased individual, couples who were not sealed during their life may be sealed to each other and their children by proxy.

	Mormon: Resigning your Mormon Church membership and cancel temple sealings
		My brother was at a loss to explain to me how a sealing could still be valid when I was no longer a mormon and by all mormon definitions certainly a son of perdition.
		My ex-wife got permission to be married in the temple (tho not from me) and I got a notification that our temple sealing had been cancelled, along with a most insulting letter inviting me to come back into the fold and all sorts of other absurdist mormon yak about the eternal fate of my family.
		If a female resigns and requests sealing nullification, I would suppose it would be ignored regardless of the status of her husband or ex-husband.

		A sealing is performed either as a covenant marriage between a man and a woman, or as a sealing of children to their parents.
		A couple who has been sealed may have their sealing "cancelled", but this is uncommon, occurs only under special circumstances and is only granted by the highest LDS officials.
		The sealing of a sealed couple whose union has been disrupted by a civil divorce (amicable or acrimonious) is not likely to remain in force; it is more likely that either or both individuals have not successfully kept their religious commitmements.

	Eternal Marriage (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Eternal Marriage is legally recognized, but unlike other civil marriages, Eternal Marriage is not intended to be for time only or until "death do you part"; it is intended to continue into the next life after the resurrection if the man and woman do not break their covenants.
		Sealed couples who keep their covenants are also promised to have their posterity sealed to them in the after life.
		Civil divorce and marriage outside the temple is somewhat of a stigma in the Mormon culture although currently the Church itself directs its local leaders not to advise members about divorce one way or another.

		Mormonism assumes this day will come suddenly upon all people—that all at once both good and bad people will see Jesus Christ when He returns, and it will be a great day for the righteous who are good enough to survive, but it will be a dreadful day for the wicked who will be destroyed.
		It is the sealing power given to Joseph Smith in 1836 in the Kirtland Temple at the hand of Elijah the prophet.
		These believers are the ones that actually do appear in the LDS temples and communicate with human beings because they believe in the false priesthood and are anxious to have the ordinances done for their families in preparation for the resurrection.

		It is fair to say also that some Mormon defenders have also done equal disservice to the LDS Church by adopting the same method in reverse: presenting carefully chosen evidence that shows only the positive side of Mormonism, while ignoring or denying the existence of contrary evidence.
		The Tanners claim that Mormon temple ordinances are the Item Y that Joseph Smith copied from the Item X of Masonry: "We feel that there is only one logical explanation for the many parallels between the temple ceremony and Masonry, and that is that Joseph Smith borrowed from the Masons" (page 490).
		Mormons of various ranks have been responsible for misconceptions about the irrevocable and immutable character of the words of revelation, but the documents of sacred history do not support such attitudes.
