So I recently met with a potential investigator who wrestled me with a couple of questions I cannot answer.
I have not gone to a mission myself, so I redirected him to the instutue( he was a YSA age) . But it gets me to ask these questions myself. However, hoping to stay as anonymous as this forum permits, I came here to ask. This is what he asked:
1) When a couple had gone through the temple divorce, will their children be sealed to the father or the mother?
a) And when each or both remarry in the temple again, could the children be sealed to their new partner?
Therefore, answers to those will also implies
i) if sealings can be canceled at all(I had heard "no" before.)
as well as
ii) who children of their previous marriage be sealed to.
2) Is there a written rule that puts an age limit for someone to obtain a temple recommend? Say a minor at the age of 15, 16 desires to obtain a standard temple recommend, not the limited-use type for youths. I couldn't find any rules says there is an age limit, yet we all know they can't…?
It was kind of embarrassing for me not being able to answer him, and even more embarrassing that i had to come here and ask...
But then... what's the answer?
