Case in point Vicarious work is for people that did not have that oppurtunity in this life. I knew of someone whose grandpa rebelled. He died and guys grandma wanted to know when they could do temple work. JFS said forget it.
I had comp who liked to debate things to stir up your mind be devils advocate. Asked about people that marry out of the church spouse dies they have someone go do the work for them. Went on and on of how Satan won't be there to tempt them, they didn't know it was true, If it didn't work why do they allow it?
Thing is people that refuse to hear the gospel hear won't hear it there. If you had adequete oppurtunity to hear it here but reject tell there you are only going to the Terrestial Kingdom if you lived honorably but were deceived. People can't use they didn't know gospel was true as excuse not to accept it because you were taught it before and if you listen will know it was true. Read were Marion G Romney said something to that effect.
I know of peole that marry out of church say in a year we will be an eternal family. If someone refused to listen to missionaries here for decades what makes you think they will listen to missionaries there in a years time.
W ehave the temple so people that reject the gospel can still be sealed. Since God is fair I don't think he will reward someone that same that rejects gospel in this life as he does that accepts it. He will not be mocked. SWK and BRM gave good talks about that at byu. Heresies and Eternal Marriage.
We don't deny temple work to people, But I think for the most part, People who marry out of the church hoping to convert spouse but does not convert than do temple work I think for the most part they will be disappointed in the next life as God is a God of the living and temple work works for those that would of taken the oppurtunity had it been afforded them.
Of course we don't know who will accept it that lived before the gospel was restored so just do the work. But people that had ample oppurtunity like BRM said what shall it profit them. original talk a waste of time for someone that refused baptism but said someone would do the work anyway.
