“Acknowledge Your Faults”

Church Educational System
All sins must be confessed to the Lord in prayer and to those sinned against. Sins which place one’s Church membership in jeopardy must also be confessed to the bishop. Elder Spencer W. Kimball said:

“When one has wronged another in deep transgression or in injuries of lesser magnitude, he, the aggressor, who gave the offense, regardless of the attitude of the other party, should immediately make amends by confessing to the injured one and doing all in his power to clear up the matter and again establish good feelings between the two parties” (Miracle of Forgiveness, p. 186).

Note that Corianton repented and returned to full activity and participation in the Church (see Alma 43:1–2).
