Did the LDS Church just reverse its position on same-sex marriage and LGBTQ issues? In a statement published in November 2022, the LDS Church affirmed its support of the Respect for Marriage Act. This action would seem to indicate that, while the Church's doctrine on marriage hasn't changed, Mormon leaders have offered support of civil same-sex marriages.
This news may delight some Latter-day Saints, and may grieve others, but there's a problem here that all members of the Mormon Church should recognize. The LDS Church has modern prophets and apostles who supposedly hear from God and speak on His behalf to Latter-day Saints. But, if there really are modern prophets, why does the LDS Church change its positions on things so quickly? If the prophets are genuine, then should they not be stable and unmovable in the face of cultural pressure?
It seems like the LDS Church's willingness to bend-the-knee to modern cultural issues and pressures is itself a demonstration of the falseness of Mormon Apostles and Prophets. These changes are "bad fruit," and as followers of God, we're commanded to reject false prophets who yield bad fruit.

LDS CHURCH STATEMENT:
The doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints related to marriage between a man and a woman is well known and will remain unchanged.
We are grateful for the continuing efforts of those who work to ensure the Respect for Marriage Act includes appropriate religious freedom protections while respecting the law and preserving the rights of our LGBTQ brothers and sisters.
We believe this approach is the way forward. As we work together to preserve the principles and practices of religious freedom together with the rights of LGBTQ individuals, much can be accomplished to heal relationships and foster greater understanding.
