IS LUCIFER THE MORMON'S TEMPLE GOD?

In the Endowment, Lucifer is portrayed as having a "white and delightsome" body
of flesh and bone. He even touches Eve's hand with his own in a little pat as he
hands her the forbidden fruit.
Yet Mormon doctrine teaches that Lucifer was denied a flesh and bone body of any
color; and indeed that the way to tell any evil spirit is that such spirits can
not really touch you physically (D&C 129, especially v.8).
Only those faithful in the pre-existent state will get tangible, white bodies ac
cording to LDS teaching. If anything, Lucifer should be portrayed as a black man
!
Also, later in the Endowment, Peter the apostle is represented as coming down fr
om Elohim in a body of flesh and bone. He shakes hands with Lucifer and then giv
es the secret grip to identify himself to Adam as one having authority.
This is also impossible, since according to LDS teaching, a righteous spirit wou
ld never attempt to shake hands (D&C 129:5-6) and Peter would not have received
a body of flesh for another 4,000 years!
In the "Holy Temple," of all places, shouldn't correct LDS theology be presented
?
Why do Temple Mormons, in the Endowment, continue to wear the green fig-leaf apr
on which Lucifer inspired and God rejected?
In the garden sequence of the Temple Ceremony, the participants listen to Lucife
r teach Mormon doctrine as he says there is no other way to gain knowledge than
to disobey Father and eat the fruit.
Adam learns that the Apron Lucifer wears symbolizes Satan's power and Priesthood
s. The Participants all place these aprons on as Lucifer directs Adam and Eve to
put them on.
The Aprons are worn throughout the entire Endowment, and this emblem of Lucifer
covers both the sacred garment and the robes of the LDS "Holy Priesthood." Why w
ould anyone wear an Apron that is the emblem of Satanic power and priesthoods?
Later in the Ceremony, the initiates raise their arms and chant "Pay Lay Ale" th
ree times. They are told these were the exact syllables Adam prayed. The Hebrew
translation of these words can either be "Marvelous False god" or "Marvelous Tru
e God.â
When Adam prayed, he believed what Lucifer taught and wore the Apron Lucifer sai
d to wear. It's no wonder Lucifer-the "god of the World"-answered! (Mormons ofte
n say there are many gods, but the only one they worship is the god of this worl
d!)
If you are still not sure if they prayed to the false god or the True God, did y
ou know that the chant has been changed? Until just before 1930, they chanted "P
ale hale hale" or Pale ale ale."
What a coincidence! The direct Hebrew translation of "Pele Heylel" is "Marvelous
Lucifer."
Why did the LDS leaders remove this chant in April, 1990, after this Luciferian
connection was revealed by former Mormons?
Wasnâ t the Temple Ceremony given as the pure and perfect revelation of God for th
e Saints? Did God change his mind after this band other pagan parts of the ritu
al were made public?
Where is the Biblical or historical support for wearing the Mormon temple underw
ear? What do the secret markings on them mean?
Why does it no longer have power when the secret Masonic marking are cut out? Is
n't this more the working of an occultic Talisman? Where are the references for
this Secret Underwear in the Standard Works?
"Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, wh
ich prophesy out of their own heart and prophesy thou against them. And say, Thu
s saith the LORD God; Woe to the women that sew pillows to armholes, and make ke
rchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of
my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?
And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of
bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that s
hould not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies?"
Ezek.13:17-19.
Early Mormon prophets established full-length secret "garments." They were â told b
y God" to wear them as "Heî (God) designed them.
Where is the Revelation giving the authority to shorten them as they are today?
Is the LDS God a slave to fashion?
"And they lay themselves down upon clothes laid to every pledge by every altar,
and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god." Amos 2:8.
In the Temple ceremony, Elohim curses Lucifer to crawl on his belly and eat dust
forever, and to have his head crushed.
Lucifer arrogantly defies Elohim to his face, goes about his business and overco
mes his curse, since he never changes his conduct or bodily function. What kind
of God is Elohim, anyway? Is his son, Lucifer, that much stronger than he?
"Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt
worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Then the devil leaveth
him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him." Matt.4:10-11.
After Adam is cast out of the Garden, he builds and altar, lifts his arms above
his head and calls upon God three times saying, "Oh God, hear the words of my mo
uth." Yet Lucifer answers and says, "I hear you, what is it you want?"
Adam asks, "Who are you?â and Lucifer replies "I am the God of this world." How ca
n this be? Is Lucifer the Mormon God? It sure seems so.
Why do couples have â Powers and principalitiesâ sealed upon them in the Temple Marri
age ceremony when the bible clearly defines them as the powers of darkness?

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against
powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wick
edness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye
may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Eph 6:1
2-13 KJV
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities
, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor
any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is
in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom 8:38-39 KJV

Excerpt From The Sealing of Marriages ritual: LDS Temple

Officiator: Brother ______, [naming groom] and Sister ______, [naming bride] ple
ase join hands in the Patriarchal Grip or Sure Sign of the Nail.
[Ed: See: http://www.saintsalive.com/resourcelibrary/mormonism/the-sure-sign-of-
the-nail-and-the-god-of-the-lds-temple]
Marriage Couple: Joins hands in the "Patriarchal Grip, or Sure Sign of the Nail.
" This token is given by clasping the right hands, interlocking the little finge
rs and placing the tip of the forefinger upon the center of the wrist. No clothi
ng should interfere with the contact of the forefinger upon the wrist.
Officiator: Brother ______, do you take Sister ______ by the right hand and rece
ive her unto yourself to be your lawful and wedded wife for time and all eternit
y, with a covenant and promise that you will observe and keep all the laws, rite
s, and ordinances pertaining to this Holy Order of Matrimony in the New and Ever
lasting Covenant, and this you do in the presence of God, angels, and these witn
esses of your own free will and choice?
Groom: Yes.
Officiator: Sister ______ do you take brother ______ by the right hand and give
yourself to him to be his lawful and wedded wife, and for him to be your lawful
and wedded husband, for time and all eternity, with a covenant and promise that
you will observe and keep all the laws, rites and ordinances pertaining to this
Holy Order of Matrimony in the New and Everlasting Covenant, and this you do in
the presence of God, angels, and these witnesses of your own free will and choi
ce?
Bride: Yes.
Officiator: By virtue of the Holy Priesthood and the authority vested in me, I p
ronounce you ______, and ______, legally and lawfully husband and wife for time
and all eternity, and I seal upon you the blessings of the holy resurrection wi
th power to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection clothed in glory
, immortality and eternal lives,
and I seal upon you the blessings of kingdoms, thrones, principalities, powers,
dominions and exaltations,
with all the blessings of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and say unto you: be fruitful
and multiply and replenish the earth that you may have joy and rejoicing in the
day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
All these blessings, together with all the blessings appertaining unto the New a
nd Everlasting Covenant, I seal upon you by virtue of the Holy Priesthood, throu
gh your faithfulness, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy
Ghost, Amen.
The Priesthood given in the temple is tied to the emblems of Lucifer's power and
priesthoods and the blessing is the sealing of those same powers and principali
ties.. of the rulers of darkness. Not my idea of a happy start to any marriage.
