In Obadiah 1:17, 21 of the King James version of the bible it is talking about Saviours on Mount Zion. In Doctrine and Covenants 128:5, 15 it further references the Saviours of Mount Zion. In the Latter Day Saint religion we believe that we can redeem those who have passed away with baptism for them. As a member of the church I go to the temple regularly to participate in this. The temple is a special place where members of the church go to come closer to God. We believe that it is a place where God can more fully communicate with us.

 

The temple is a place where we as members of the Church of Jesus Christ are able to go and participate in ordinances to help our loved ones receive the gospel. We believe that through the temple we are able to be sealed to our family for eternity. The term "seal" means just that we are able to become a forever family with them.
