Pornography

 

“Many who are in a spiritual drought and lack commitment have not necessarily been involved in major sins or transgressions, but they have made unwise choices.”

Quentin L. Cook, “Can Ye Feel so Now?” Ensign, Oct. 2012, 6.

“Some involved in pornography apparently minimize its seriousness and continue to exercise the priesthood of God because they think no one will know of their involvement. But the user knows, brethren, and so does the Lord."

Dallin H. Oaks, “Pornography”, April 2005.

“Avoid any semblance of pornography. It will desensitize the spirit and erode the conscience. We are told in the Doctrine and Covenants, “That which doth not edify is not of God, and is darkness.” Such is pornography."

Thomas S. Monson, “True to the Faith”, April 2006.

“Pornography will always repel the Spirit of Christ and will interrupt the communications between our Heavenly Father and His children and disrupt the tender relationship between husband and wife."

Boyd K. Packer, Cleansing the Inner Vessel, October 2010.

“Permissiveness, immorality,  pornography, drugs, the power of peer pressure—all these and more—cause many to be tossed about on a sea of sin and crushed on the jagged reefs of lost opportunities, forfeited blessings, and shattered d­reams.”

      Thomas S. Monson, “Believe, Obey and Endure”, Broadcasts, 2013.

“Pornography is a plague that is detrimental not only to a person’s moral standing with God but can also destroys marriages and families and has an adverse impact on society.”

Quentin L. Cook, “Don’t Wear Masks,” Liahona, March 2013

“People who are involved with pornography often assume a false identity and hide their participation”

      Quentin L. Cook, “Don’t Wear Masks,” Liahona, March 2013

“Pornography is especially dangerous and addictive. Curious exploration of pornography can become a controlling habit, leading to coarser material and to sexual transgression. Avoid pornography at all costs.”

                                        Thomas S. Monson, “Preparation brings blessings,” Liahona, May 2010

“Let us all improve our personal behavior and redouble our efforts to protect our loved ones and our environment from the onslaught of pornography.”

                                                                       Dallin H. Oaks, “Pornography,” Ensign, April 2005

“You cannot afford in any degree to become involved with pornography, whatever its form. You simply cannot afford to become involved in immoral practices--or to let down the bars of sexual restraint.”
                                                  Gordon B. Hinckley, “A Chosen Generation,” Ensign, May 1992
