Response

In answer to a letter "received at the office of the First Presidency of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints . . . .

Question 4: Is plural or celestial marriage essential to a fulness of glory in the world to come?

Answer: Celestial marriage is essential to a fulness of glory in the world to come, as explained in the revelation concerning it;

but it is not stated that plural marriage is thus essential. . . .

These questions are answered, so that it may not be truthfully claimed that we avoid them. . . .

Of the First Presidency."
