Inside the Latter-day Saints' Washington D.C. Temple
Inside the Latter-day Saints' Washington D.C. Temple
For decades the towering marble edifice that is the Washington, D.C. Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has posed a mystery to those outside the faith. Now, after a major renovation, CBS News’ Ed O’Keefe takes a tour inside the temple, before a public open house that will welcome all to visit a building dedicated to reverence and contemplation.

I wish they had asked about the secret meetings held on weekday mornings between the church elders and the pre-pubescent boys. There is a lot of secrecy in this religion and knowing what I know, it borders on cult
I’ve never heard of this building til now.
Jesus divides people and families.
Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law — a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’ (Mat 10:34-36)
The God of truth (Isa. 65:16) is the God of the Bible. Since truth divides, then Jesus would naturally divide his followers away from those who reject and hate God’s truth, even one’s natural family members. Remember, Jesus divides families:
Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division. From now on there will be five in one family divided against each other, three against two and two against three. They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.” (Luke 12:51-53)
Those same truth rejecters become enemies to the truth lovers as they resist and persecute the follower of Jesus.
To be worthy of Jesus and eternal life, one must side with God’s truth even though it divides his own family.

Fake crap. You really belive some guy left gold plates in the desert with the book of Mormon written on them? Come on man… next you’ll have a burning bush.
didn’t mention the duplicate oval office in this temple.
Disgusting cult
what a joke!!!! feed the people NOT YOUR BUILDINGS !!!!! SHAME !!!!!
What strange ritual is performed to become a part of this cult?
Latter Day Yuck
They have the nerve to call themselves apostles, doesn’t God hate Golden idols
I got to go in on the open tour. Very fascinating and beautiful place! I’m not Mormon but the Mormon people are very nice and welcoming.
A media fluff piece for a cult. Way to go, Cbs.
The temple was dedicated today. Only members in good standing and with a recommend card can go inside now. However, visitors are always welcome to walk around the temple grounds and/or go through the visitor’s center. And of course, the Christmas light display and the free Christmas concerts at the Visitor’s Center in December are wonderful and well attended.
Cult begets cults.
That’s what Protestantism has beget
I would love to see how much this cost. All built with 100% tax deductible money.
Mormons are not Christians. They are heretics at best, non-believers at worst.
She just kick the money changers out of his Temple and everything Jesus done was done in public in front of everybody he had nothing to hide the Church of Jesus Christ is now the world’s largest financial institution Catholic churches second so if you want to worship money go to the temple imagine millions of dollars that it takes to build one of them and where the money comes from it’s one of the few institutions that could stop world hunger forever but they don’t they build temples to make themselves feel it Superior to all others it’s just plain disgusting reading read the New testament of the Bible and see what it says and then listen to the Mormon point of view and you’ll know the truth truth will set you free
I went in there a couple weeks back! It was like a never ending series of 5 star hotel lobbies. It went on and on but never really went anywhere.
Beautiful
weather or not you are a member of the church or not you Cant denie that the LDS Temples are Beautiful Inside and out
After it is back in service, all non Mormons are forbidden. Creepy rituals stolen from Free masonry. Anointment of genitals, baptizing the dead…. creepy stuff…
Show me a perfect religion an il join it,at least the Mormon have a good upbringing teaching kids not to lie cheat an steal .I would trust the Mormon to watch my house than 90 percent of other so call Christian churches at least nothing will get stolen .they have the best upbringing.
Mormonism is a false religion with a false jesus a false prophet and a false "bible" joseph smith practiced divination occult practices to receive his supposed revelations. This is demonic doctrine as the true biblical jesus warned us of in the true bible.

This terrorist group needs to be squashed!!!
Mormon temples are interesting but their beliefs are bizarre.
Muy pronto estaré hay
This is so nice to see
Protect your children…. BOYCOTT DISNEY NOW… STOP THIS WOKE INSANITY…
Converted in 2019. Just recently went to Temple in Hawaii. I am honored to be a member of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
The San Diego LDS Temple is shockingly beautiful!
the illusion of God and holiness!
the mormon church was NOT persecuted for their beliefs. they were persecuted for lies, sins, false teachings, false prophecies occult origins(divination) and plural marriages. lets not let them play victims when they have a checkered history and dubious origin
Satanic House of Worship.
So wonderful to get married without your family being allowed in. The mormon church ruins lives, stay away from it.
"We will not reveal any of the secrets of this, the first token of the Aaronic priesthood, with its accompanying name, sign or penalty. Should we do so; we agree that our throats be cut from ear to ear and our tongues torn out by their roots." ~ 1931
It’s not baptism of the dead, it’s baptism for the dead.
As of June 5, 2022, about 250,000 people toured the inside of the DC Temple. Best guess is that when the open house ended on June 11, about 300,00 attended.
Nicely and Respectfully done – Thank you, CBS Sunday Morning.
Thank you for this respectful report.
The last day of the DC Temple open house was yesterday. I hope many of you had the opportunity to see the inside. Visitors are welcome to stroll around the outside and see the beautiful gardens and landscaping. Also, there is a visitor’s center located on the property if you want to know more about our faith. At Christmas time, the outside of the visitors center is lit with about a million Christmas lights and there are a lot of free Christmas concerts put on by community groups. It is a great holiday tradition for many.
Beware of false prophets and trust in Jesus Christ and his teachings, man though sin want the truth to be how they want it to be and not what Jesus Christ teaches
the book of Mormon is a lie
Don’t be deceived Jesus Christ is come in the flesh to die for your sins and save you and give you eternal life as a free gift by believing in Jesus Christ and what Jesus Christ did and how he rose from the grave on the 3rd day!
