Most things in the Mormon church would not be considered opulent or extravagant. The temples might be able to be described as such because they are built for the Lord using only the finest materials and craftmanship to honor Him. Just because the temples are extravagant does not mean the church is false; that is interesting and not very insightful reasoning. Additionally if you look in to the description of what God told his followers to put into the temple that was built in Old Testament times and if you were to apply the same reasoning to that structure then you would have to say that the God described in the Old Testament, (who I might add Jesus Christ claimed to be) was a false and sinful God, because almost everything in that building was either made of Gold or coated in it. So it was a very extravagant building and because Jesus Christ claimed to be the God described in the Old Testament you would also have to label him as a false and sinful being. The reasoning used in your question falls apart very quickly if you apply it to other things. The temples that are built by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are done so following the spirit of the temples built in ancient times.

Roman temples were built for the gods. Each temple was dedicated to a god or goddess or to two or three related gods/goddesses. There was also the pantheon which was a kind of temple dedicated to all the gods. Religious rituals were performed at the temples. These varied according to the myths and traditions associated with the god or gods in question. They usually started with sacrifices to honour and pacify the god or gods and which also varied for the same reasons. If the god(s) were not honoured, this could cause their wrath.
