“When people have trouble understanding the nature of temple work, it invariably seems to reflect on their understanding of the gospel.

“As temple work progresses, some members wonder if the ordinances can be changed or adjusted. These ordinances have been provided by revelation, and are in the hands of the First Presidency. Thus, the temple is protected from tampering.

“Those who are filled with faith, testimony, obedience, and a prayerful spirit seem to have no great difficulty in appreciating the teachings and blessings of the temple,” said Elder Bangerter.
