All homosexual or same-sex sexual activity is forbidden by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) in its law of chastity, and the church teaches that God does not approve of same-sex marriage.[1] Adherents who participate in same-sex sexual behavior may face church discipline. Members of the church who experience homosexual attractions, including those who self-identify as gay, lesbian, or bisexual remain in good standing in the church if they abstain from all sexual relations outside an opposite-sex marriage,[2][3][4] but all, including individuals participating in same-sex sexual behavior, are allowed to attend weekly church worship services.[5] Additionally, in the church’s plan of salvation noncelibate gay and lesbian individuals will not be allowed in the top tier of heaven to receive what’s called exaltation to become like God unless they repent, and a heterosexual marriage is a requirement for exaltation.
