Quote
The next ordinance of salvation is confirmation, the laying on of hands, by those with proper authority the Melchizedek Priesthood), for the reception of the Spirit. This also is not optional; it is mandatory. Latter-day Saints believe that one must have hands laid upon the head, be confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and be told, “Receive the Holy Ghost.” The gift of the Holy Ghost is the right to the companionship of the Spirit, the third member of the Godhead, based upon personal worthiness. (See 1 Cor. 3:16-17; 6:19)Share
