Repentance & Punishment

K. Douglas Bassett
“Alma bluntly told his wayward son that ‘repentance could not come unto men except there were a punishment.’ The punishment may, for the most part, consist of the torment we inflict upon ourselves. It may be the loss of privilege or progress… . We are punished by our sins, if not for them.” (Boyd K. Packer, Ensign, Nov. 1995, p. 19)
