New LDS Pronouns And Transgender Policy!

The Church has updated its pronouns and transgender policy. They have clarified that social transitioning from one gender to another includes using pronouns and a name from another gender.

Additionally, the ordinances of baptism and temple ordinance qualification are given.

We use a Salt Lake Tribune article to go through the changes and show how the deconstruction of gender, sex, and even chromosomes is the agenda of gender ideology and how language helps accomplish this goal.

First church that i know that is truly trying to protect our children. God bless the LDS church and their members. Finally there are more people who understand truth.
My wife is getting baptized this Sunday in an LDS church. I support her and read scripture with her. I may be converting myself someday. This new information is definitely steering me towards the church.
I watch your content along with a few other lds channels.
We live in western new york an hour from Palmyra and i just learned of your religion 3 years ago. But i do like what i have learned and i definitely like the church now protecting the members from having to concede their beliefs due to someones feelings.

I am one of those anomalies. I am XXY, better known as Multiple Chromosomal Disorder or Klinefelter's Syndrome. For all intensive purposes though I am male. That is what the 'Y' chromosome does. I am a man, just with some extra bits thrown in. The extra 'X' does give me some female traits, like my hormones going nuts once a month, which synced up with my wife's own monthly cycles too and now that I am older I'm going through Menopause. Hot flashes suck by the way. I am very much looking forward to the resurrection when I can have a wonderful normal celestial body!

I left the church many years ago - however the identity politics makes me want to return just to support traditional values.

Well said, Greg, and you're right, the Young Women to be the greeters is good. Also, as an adult convert myself years ago, I didn't get baptized and become a member of the true Church, to decide one day that I want The Church to change doctrine or even policies, to accommodate me. I joined The Church, to follow Christ and do what He wants me to do and become who He wants me to be, NOT for The Church to follow me or do what I want.

I was recently in a leadership training meeting with a regional rep from LDS Family Services discussing LGBTQ issues. She made an awesome comment, which I wrote down: “The Spirit testifies of TRUTH not of political correctness and it does not tip toe around the issues. If you find yourself tip toeing around the issues you are not following the Spirit.” Love that these updates in the handbook are not tip toeing around these issues anymore. We must live based on truth. While listening to the discussion of the difficulty and awkwardness for 1 individual who doesn’t live according to his/her sex, I couldn’t help but think of this line from 1 Nephi: “it is better that one man should perish than an entire nation dwindle and perish in unbelief.”

"Real love for the sinner may compel courageous confrontation—not acquiescence! Real love does not support self-destructing behavior." - Russell M Nelson

Strongly recommend reading President Nelson's "Teach us Tolerance & Love" general conference talk in which he warns of taking tolerance too far.

Our VERY last Sunday in our old ward in Albuquerque, a woman came to church with her 15 year old son dressed like a girl, and an actual daughter. The mother introduced herself during Relief Society, and said that they were moving from El Paso, Texas. She railed against her previous Bishop, speaking about how unloving and intolerant he was for not allowing her son to go to Young Women and said that she was looking for a ward where the bishop would allow it. On our way home from church that day, my husband and I, despite how much we hated leaving that ward and leaving Albuquerque, both breathed sighs of relief that it was our last Sunday. My husband was in the bishopric, And would’ve had to deal with that. Our daughters had already graduated from young women, but we both said almost the exact same thing at the same time. We would NOT allow our daughters to go to a young women class where a boy was permitted to attend. We’d go to church, attend sacrament meeting, Ward activities, etc., and we would teach young women to our daughters at home — probably with several other young women and their parents who ALSO would have pulled their daughters out.
We kept in contact with friends in the ward, and learned that the bishop did not allow the boy to go to young women, and the family had moved on to searching other wards.

Regarding restrictions on temple covenants, they say "relegating them to second-class citizens." We should say, "Prevent them from making covenants they can't/won't keep."

I look forward to the day when the Lord returns and reigns as King. Then, all of this nonsense will be no more. I enjoy listening to your thoughts, Greg. Your faith is strong.

I have a friend that had to pull his kids out of primary because of the way their ward was doing it. Now he and his wife are being judged as “inactive” because they go to sacrament and then they go home. But at home they spend the whole day devoted to teaching them the gospel and spending time as a family. TBH I would do the same if I were in that situation.

Time stamp 31:35. You can show all the compassion in the world to a large portion of the LGBTQ+ community, but unless you advocate for them they will reject your compassion and revile you as a hater.

[hgdolder]

Why are we even discussing this?
If the Church is wrong, then it cannot provide the means of Salvation it proclaims. Why would you want to be a part of such a mistaken organization? There are plenty of churches eager to cater to you!
Now, if the Church is right, the path to Salvation will require you to bring your "sacrifice to the altar". The sacrifices will be different for each of us. They might include your "perceived identity". We all are expected to do that! The Church, through the infinite Atonement of Jesus Christ, is supposed to change us completely.

NO NO NO!!! Our Heavenly Father wouldn't even condone to this!! We are who we are when we receive our body!! We are who we were in the pre existence!! 😢

[justynafletcher]

The church should be the second safest place for you & your children besides your home. The fact that this is even an issue is appalling. The fact that I have to be concerned about the people teaching my children in church is heartbreaking. I’m glad they added some clarification and I hope it helps.

[barbarad.]

I was just called to our Stake Primary Presidency....I never in a million years thought we would be facing anything like this. God Bless and protect our little ones!

[gregoryrunyan]

I pray all the time that the Church will continue to uphold absolute truth no matter the reactions of the great and spacious building. This handbook addition is good news. Good work, Greg.

What about the parents of those who transition their young children? Will they be held simmilarly accountable? They should be accountable for the abusive actions to the children entrusted them.

[lynndichon]

for mstarters God is not the author of confusion
Thank you Greg for speaking out on this we see that the family proclamation was truly a inspired prophetic message for our day
We have to stand on truth alone and never align with any other ideology or we will be “ Running to and fro with every whim of doctrine “
