LDS Teaching on Jesus' Marriages
As I noted in an earlier post, the Time review of The Da Vinci Code mentioned that Brigham Young believed that Jesus was married. This, I figured, was congruent with Mormon doctrine but I chose to focus on the comments concerning Martin Luther.
Now Ask the Pastor has just posted The Da Vinci Code: Mormons and the Marriage of Jesus. In it, Pastor Snyder uses primary sources to show how not only Young, but much of Mormonism, has held the belief that Christ was married — often claiming that He (and His Father) have multiple wives in the heavenly realms.
