GEMS-Family: Families Should Be United
"The Savior of the world, Jesus Christ, said of those who would be part of His Church: 'Be one; and if ye are not one ye are not mine' (D&C 38:27). And at the creation of man and woman, unity for them in marriage was not given as hope, it was a command! 'Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh' (Gen. 2:24). Our Heavenly Father wants our hearts to be knit together. That union in love is not simply an ideal. It is a necessity."
( Elder Henry B. Eyring, "That We May Be One," Ensign, May 1998, 66)
