==Question: Why did Bruce R. McConkie say that polygamy would be practiced again before the Second Coming?==
 
===The Church has no position on whether polygamy will ever be reinstated===
 
 
 
Bruce R. McConkie in ''Mormon Doctrine'' said "The holy practice will commence again after the Second Coming of the Son of Man and the ushering in of the millennium." <ref>Bruce R. McConkie, ''Mormon Doctrine'' (Salt Lake City:Bookcraft, 1958; second edition, 1966), 578.</ref> Elder Bruce R. McConkie, therefore, believed that it would.  Others believe not.  In any case, the book ''Mormon Doctrine'' is not an official publication of the Church.
 
 
 
The Church official website responded to the question, "Is polygamy gone forever from the Church?" by saying:
 
<blockquote>
 
We only know what the Lord has revealed through His prophets, that plural marriage has been stopped in the Church. Anything else is speculative and unwarranted. <ref>"Polygamy: Questions and Answers With the ''Los Angeles Times''," (31 May 2006) {{link|url=http://newsroom.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/commentary/polygamy-questions-and-answers-with-the-los-angeles-times}} (last accessed 15 January 2009).</ref>
