What are the secrets of the Mormon church?

Answer 1

There are no secrets. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" Church), like Christ, invites all to "come and see."

Answer 2

Their secrets are identical to the secrets of the Catholics, Methodists, Episcopalians...etc.

By "identical" I refer to the fact that in all cases the secrets have great meaning to the group involved, while not having much to do with actually acquiring salvation. Additionally the secrets will always seem silly or bizarre to those not of the group, while the outsider's own secrets will seem holy and proper.

The history of religion admits to no exceptions.

If you wish to have the specific details, you need only join the Catholics, Methodists, Latter Day Saints, or any other church. When you have shown you are of the faith, you will at some point be initiated into it's "mysteries". This may take years.

Or you may attempt to "cheat", and pry into what is holy to others by interviewing the apostates of the various faiths, or asking one faith to describe their rival faith's secrets. You may or may not get the truth this way. I will bet you will only get twists and exaggerations.

Best to let each group have their special private customs. It harms none.

Answer 3

Like hidden secrets? Not really.

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) are very active in sharing their beliefs with others. They want to spread their faith to anyone who will listen, and love to answer questions about their religion. Worship services, classes, and activities are all open to the public, and all books and documents published by the Church are available for free online.

The only thing that might be considered a 'secret' are the Temple ceremonies. Only baptized Mormon adults are able to participate in Temple ceremonies. The ceremonies are very sacred and special to Mormons, so they do not repeat the exact words or actions from the ceremony outside of the Temple. While the exact words and actions are not repeated outside the Temple, Mormons can describe the ceremonies in more basic terms.

Mormons do not wish their Temples or the Temple ceremonies to be a secret. When a new Temple is built they offer free public tours before the dedication. Once a Temple is dedicated, however, it is considered sacred ground and only those who qualify (actively practicing baptized adults) can enter. The Church encourages all members to participate in a Temple ceremony at least once in their life, and even provides funds for transportation to the Temple if the member cannot afford it.

While Mormons wish to keep their ceremonies sacred by not repeating them outside the Temple, it is no secret what these ceremonies are like. Many who have left the church have published the exact words and detailed descriptions online.
