If you believe the endowment is an eternal ordinance in any way and that Christ received his, do you believe Christ ever wore the temple robes?

strappinglad Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 Would Christ have been allowed into the inner rooms of His temple ? Maybe He arranged for a ' special session ' .

If that was the case, shouldn’t the women have a corresponding tie from the veil to the robe? Because they don’t. I’ve never heard anyone say that it was the case. It’s only what I’ve surmised over the years. And I know next to nothing about what women wear for the temple ceremony.
Duncan Posted January 18, 2020 Author Posted January 18, 2020 Would it be too much to ask to have an ounce of air conditioning in the Temple? an ounce! sometimes it feels like a sauna🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 3

On the other hand of course everyone knows it if you're a 6 th generation member then you obviously get a much higher place in the Celestial Kingdom, even if you drink coffee occasionally. Sounds like strictly Utah culture to me Why is it whenever you hear or see something that annoys you you go off on “Utah culture”? I think you have a complex. I don’t know what JLHPROF is talking about either, and I’m from Utah with ancestors going back to the 1800s. I guess I missed the memo. Edited January 18, 2020 by Scott Lloyd

You've made statements in the past I respect greatly on them. While I didn't expect you to disagree with Church actions, I thought you would understand the meanings of the clothing. The tie is definitely not meaningless. Of course it is not meaningless. But anything I learned I learned from the Lord not oral tradition. But velcro and hooks have taken away a lot of that away anyway Sorry if I was offensive. 1

In volume 12 of the Collected Works of Hugh Nibley you will find an article on "Sacred Vestments," which deals with the history of such things. Another good source is online at https://ldstempleendowment.blogspot.com/2010/03/garments-veil-and-gammadia-markings_03.html Virtually all the temple ordinances, paraphernalia, signs, and clothing familiar to us today was had anciently. Both Bible and Book of Mormon contain the basics, but they can only be seen by very careful reading. Edited January 18, 2020 by Robert F. Smith 1

strappinglad Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 Our temple has been closed for a couple of weeks for cleaning. It is just as well because the temps here have been between - 20 and - 30 F . We will take any heat you can spare. 2

When I was still a temple attending member, I would tie the cap to the robe before I put it on my head. I would tie it at the very end so it was loose and turning my head was not a problem. 2
