Are You Polygamous?


Journal of Discourses 21:296:
 
…if plurality of marriage is not true… then marriage for eternity is not true, and your faith is all vain… for as sure as one is true the other must be true. Amen. 
Apostle Orson Pratt, Salt Lake City, 7/18/1880.


Doctrine & Covenants 132:4 (concerning plural marriage): For behold, I reveal unto you a new and an everlasting covenant; and if ye abide not that covenant, then are ye damned; for no one can reject this covenant and be permitted to enter into my glory.

Supposedly given personally by “God,” 7/12/1843.


So according to this teaching, any Mormon man who is not polygamous cannot “enter into [God’s] glory,” i.e, he cannot be saved.


What about women? Can they be saved if they are not part of a polygamous marriage?
