The temple is a place of holiness. It is the most sacred and holy place on earth and should be treated with the greatest degree of reverence and respect.

At times, our circumstances call for us to make critical choices to keep our covenants or to compromise them. Covenants should never be compromised, even when at the moment some circumstances might seem to justify it.

Irreverence not only shows disrespect to Deity but also makes it hard for the Spirit to teach us the things we need to know.

The temple is a place of worship. Reverence is a supernal form of worship. It is the form of worship found in the celestial kingdom.

It is inappropriate to discuss matters of business, pleasure or current events in the temple.

Receiving personal revelation is not a passive process. As we seek such revelations, we must prepare for these sacred experiences.

There is a difference in just attending the temple and having a rich spiritual experience. The real blessings of the temple come as we enhance our temple experience. To do so, we must feel a spirit of reverence for the temple and a spirit of worship.
