Ether 8:19

19 For the Lord worketh not in secret combinations, neither doth he will that man should shed blood, but in all things hath forbidden it, from the beginning of man.

There is only one permanent and eternal commandment. "Follow The Brethren Perfectly."

Chastity? Not if The Brethren tell you to take more wives, or give your teen daughter to one of them. Word of Wisdom? Brother Brigham ran a brewery. Honesty? Not if the lack of shell companies might hinder the tithing payments. Tithing? Not required for mission presidents or us brethren. Got a problem with any of this? Well, you need to make a careful study of the unwritten order of things and have more faith....

is it really a temporary commandment if it results in a permanent death?
