Maybe you should mention that on the thread in question on "the board that shall not be named."

;)

Oh, and welcome to the board, Kamenraider! Glad to have you with us!

You can quote from the CHI all you want here.

Consistency was never MAD's strong suit. I wouldn't mention this over there, though - not if you want to keep your posting privileges.

I think they're having another "clean house" fest over there. I have an account I have literally NEVER used and never intend to use, that I keep solely for the purpose of accessing the search engine. Suddenly tonight I'm getting the message I "don't have permission" to even VIEW the board.

The interesting thing is that the intro to the CHI book 1 says it's for all leaders to reference and while I have had direct CHI priveleges, whenever I haven't been in that position (such as when I was teaching 11 year-olds in Primary), I've never been refused access to it, to thumb through it, to read it etc.

Why are you surprised, Kamen? Juliann is what Juliann is, and she does exactly as she wants. I'm never surprised when another poster gets removed. Juliann's the queen bee there, and she tends to get testy when the moon is full.

Thanks for the welcomes!

There was another polygamy thread fairly recently on which juliann was having a hard time getting people to accept her notion that polygamy is not doctrine now, so she got in one last post and then closed it. This time around she seems to have decided not to do that.

I have a March 1989 copy of the General Handbook of Instructions that says (on pg. 6-5 under "sealing of wife to husband") that "A living woman can be sealed to only one husband". I also have a copy from the 70's that actually says that a woman will have to pick one husband if she is sealed to more than one, but I can't find it now. The 1998 Church Handbook of Instructions says (the question was about living women):

Living Women

A living woman may be sealed to only one husband. If she is sealed to
a husband and later divorced, she must receive a cancellation of that
sealing from the First Presidency before she may be sealed to another
man in her lifetime (see "Applying for a Cancellation of Sealing or a
Sealing Clearance" on this page).


I can't find the current CHI right now either. Juliann was trying to say that we can't say that men being sealed to more than one women in this life (such as my stepdad was; first to his first wife, and then to my mom after she died) means anything such as that there will be polygamy in the hereafter because some living women are, through rare exceptions to the rules, allowed to be sealed to more than one husband while still living, and the CHI no longer says that they'll have to pick one.

The way I see it, an exception doesn't make a rule. Also, I think that the part about picking one of the husbands was probably taken out so that temple workers or Church leaders wouldn't insensitively inform women that they'll have to pick one when they're sealed to more than one husband, thus hopefully not directing their attention to something that they might worry about.

I also pointed out to juliann, etc., how Wilford Woodruff had said in a letter that a woman who received the second anointing and was anointed a queen and priestess to a good man would not be able to be anointed to another man that she was sealed to if the first died. That would limit her to one, I think.

Also, if you have the CHI, you can quote the significant statement here which would help us know what the truth is. I for one am curious.


What is it you want to know?
