“Days of My Probation”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet
Mortality is the time of probation. All are expected to endure to the end. No ordinance or experience excuses one from the responsibility to live righteously and to render full obedience to the laws of God. Those having so kept this probationary estate are promised that they “shall have glory added upon their heads for ever and ever” (Abraham 3:26). For those with a knowledge of the gospel, probation ends at death. For those who have not had the opportunity to hear the gospel in mortality, the days of probation continue into the world of spirits.
