Mormon Garments Explained

*Why I left the Mormon Church: (https://www.mormontruths.com/why-i-le...)

Mormon garments, commonly referred to as temple garments or simply "garments," are special undergarments worn by adult members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) who have received the endowment ceremony in one of the LDS temples. These garments are considered to be a sacred and symbolic reminder of the covenants and commitments made during the temple ceremony.

Here are key aspects of Mormon garments:

Purpose and Symbolism:

Garments are worn as a symbolic expression of the covenants made in the temple during the endowment ceremony. They are seen as a constant reminder of the individual's commitment to live according to the principles and teachings of the LDS Church.
The garment is often referred to as the "garment of the holy priesthood" and is believed to have a spiritual significance, providing protection and a constant connection to one's faith.
Design:

Garments are typically white and made of lightweight, breathable fabric.
The design includes a top and bottom piece, covering the wearer's shoulders, chest, and legs. The garments are meant to be worn under regular clothing.
They may have various symbols sewn into them, such as lines representing the navel and the knee, serving as reminders of one's commitment to obey the commandments and follow the path of righteousness.

When Worn:

Members who have participated in the temple endowment wear these garments throughout their lives. It is common for members to wear them day and night, only removing them for activities like swimming, sports, or intimate relations.

Protection and Blessings:

Many members believe that wearing temple garments brings spiritual protection and blessings. The garments are seen as a physical and spiritual shield against temptation and harm.
Some members share personal experiences attributing protection or guidance to their faithful wearing of the garments.

Personal Choice and Commitment:

Wearing temple garments is a personal choice, and members choose to wear them as a sign of their commitment to their faith and the covenants made in the temple.
Members often express a deep sense of personal significance and spirituality associated with wearing these garments.
