For Latter-day Saints, a temple is different from other Church buildings. The temple is a place where Latter-day Saints receive special instruction about God and Jesus Christ.
In the temple, members make eternal covenants or promises with God.

Ancestors can also receive all the blessings of the temple if someone performs the sacred ordinances in their behalf and they accept that act of service.
