“May the Lord Grant Unto You Repentance”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet
See Alma 34:14-15; Acts 5:29-31; Acts 11:18; 2 Timothy 2:23-25 “The return to the path of purity and peace through repentance is not simply a grand work which man must perform on his own .... Rather, repentance is granted and available as a free gift to man through the Atonement; through the grace and goodness of Jesus Christ, men and women are not only entitled to repent but also are enabled to do so” In short, “Since God grants repentance, it cannot be viewed as a human work alone.” (Robert L. Millet, By Grace Are We Saved, p. 34.)
