rpn Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Well, it is possible that "the walls will fall" for Lyle Jeffs: all the others have been released on bond. He may be too. I don't imagine though that he's going to be able to travel to see Warren Jeffs though in TX, even if he is released in SLC. Link to comment

Tacenda Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 (edited) It's about time!!! Thanks for the good news ERayR! Here's hoping for all those disconnected families to reunite with all their loved ones...lost boys no more, and young girls marrying whom they choose. But still allowing them freedom of religion, and finally freedom from dictatorship. Edited April 5, 2016 by Tacenda 2 Link to comment

I thought one of the points of Lorin Woolley's version of perpetuating plural marriage was the idea that by continuing "the practice" and ensuring that children continued to be born under the New and Everlasting Covenant (which Woolley believed to be synonymous with plural marriage) that they were forestalling the end of times?

Tacenda Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 http://www.good4utah.com/news/local-news/warren-jeffs-the-end-will-come-in-2016 I guess Warren predicts the end of world and comes down hard on the followers, he tends to blame them for it. Maybe that's where I got it wrong. He's saying they aren't righteous enough and the world will end because of it. Link to comment

It was "the principle", not "the practice". And I've never heard any teaching of Woolley that the end of times was being forestalled by the practice. I'd like to see that quote. He claimed that they were under covenant by John Taylor " that while we lived we would see to it that no year passed by without children being born in the principle of plural marriage. We were given authority to ordain others if necessary to carry this work on, they in turn to be given authority to ordain others when necessary, under the direction of the worthy senior ( by ordination), so that there should be no cessation in the work.

Can't say for sure, but based on my research into Woolley it's a safe bet he would denounce the lot of them. Child marriage didn't start until well after his death. Link to comment
