“The priesthood is the power of God delegated to men to act for the blessing and salvation of all mankind. While we sometimes refer to priesthood holders as ‘the priesthood,’ we must never forget that the priesthood is not owned by or embodied in those who hold it. It is held in a sacred trust to be used for the benefit of men, women, and children alike. Elder John A. Widtsoe said, ‘Men have no greater claim than women upon the blessings that issue from the Priesthood and accompany its possession’ (Priesthood and Church Government [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1939], p. 83). For example, our young women should have just as many opportunities for blessings from priesthood leaders as our young men.” (Dallin H. Oaks, in Conference Report, Apr. 1992, p. 51; or Ensign, May 1992, p. 36) Elder Marion G. Romney has taught us of the responsibilities that come to those who hold the Melchizedek Priesthood. He said:

“The status of one who receives the priesthood and then breaks the covenant is explained by the Lord in this language: ‘… whoso breaketh this covenant after he hath received it, and altogether turneth therefrom, shall not have forgiveness of sins in this world nor in the world to come.’ [D&C 84:41.]

“With such a penalty prescribed for breaking it, one might be prompted to question the advisability of accepting the obligations of the covenant; that is, he might question it until he reads the verse which follows the statement of the penalty. There he learns that those who do not receive the oath and covenant are not much, if any, better off than are those who receive it and break it. For in that verse the Lord says: ‘And, wo unto all those who come not unto this priesthood which ye have received. …’ [D&C 84:42.] “Such is the sober import of ‘the oath and covenant which belongeth to the priesthood’ ” (in Conference Report, Apr. 1962, p. 18; or Improvement Era, June 1962, p. 416).
