Temple Recommend Questions (Part 2): Worthiness and the Gospel
In this episode, Bryan and Layne continue their conversation about the 16 temple recommend questions every Latter-day Saint must answer in order to be considered “worthy” to enter the temple. Picking up at question nine, they explore the topics of honesty, tithing, the Word of Wisdom, divorce obligations, temple covenants, serious sins, and the final worthiness questions.
Layne shares from his own experience as a former Mormon how these interviews shaped his view of God and created constant pressure to prove his worthiness. Together, Bryan and Layne contrast that system with the Bible’s message of grace—where worthiness is not earned by man but fully given through Christ.
You’ll hear how:
- Honesty and integrity matter, but only Jesus was perfectly honest.
- Tithing becomes a “fire insurance” requirement in Mormonism, but the Bible calls us to joyful generosity.
- The Word of Wisdom mixes biblical wisdom with added, shifting rules.
- Temple covenants are heavy and impossible to keep perfectly—yet Jesus kept the law on our behalf.
- True confession begins with God, not with a bishop or stake president.
- Our worthiness is found in Christ alone, not in passing a list of man-made questions.
This episode helps listeners see the difference between the pressure of man’s system and the freedom of Christ’s finished work.
