The spirit of rebellion is antithetical to the Spirit of the Lord. There is no salvation in such a spirit. By contrast, of those seeking righteousness the Lord said, “Verily I say unto you, all among them who know their hearts are honest, and are broken, and their spirits contrite, and are willing to observe their covenants by sacrifice, every sacrifice which I, the Lord, shall command-they are accepted of me” (D&C 97:8).
