I'm quoting you in this thread (from this one) as it is more appropriate for those who approach the temple endowment changes in disbelief. Please provide said quote or sources for any of your other claims. I'm really not looking to take the source thread into a base discussion. That said, here's a source for you:Col. Flagg wrote: ↑April 3rd, 2019, 1:41 pm Joseph Smith is on record as saying the temple endowment was never to be changed. Well, it has changed numerous times and often as the result of church surveys or to satisfy members' concerns, particularly the appalling stuff involving blood oaths, pantomiming throat-slitting and disemboweling yourself and other changes to try and increase attendance. So much for revelation.
"Whenever the Lord has had a people on the earth who will obey His word, they have been commanded to build temples. Scriptures document patterns of temple worship from the times of Adam and Eve, Moses, Solomon, Nephi, and others.
With the restoration of the gospel in these latter days, temple worship has also been restored to bless the lives of people across the world and on the other side of the veil as well.
Over these many centuries, details associated with temple work have been adjusted periodically, including language, methods of construction, communication, and record-keeping. Prophets have taught that there will be no end to such adjustments as directed by the Lord to His servants.
A dedicated temple is the most holy of any place of worship on the earth. Its ordinances are sacred and are not discussed outside a holy temple."~ First Presidency regarding 2019 endowment changes
The ordinances changed from the time of Moses to the time of Joseph Smith. So on a macro scale this is OK but not on a micro scale? I can see clearly this pattern of curse, curse removal, and blessing within the time and season itself. I'm sorry you don't see it but it seems to me you are looking in the opposite direction of confirmation bias.
