President Fielding Smith taught, "The forgiveness of sins comes through faith and sincere repentance." He said that, "it is necessary, not merely that we believe, but that we repent," and he also taught that when we perform good works in faith until the end, we will, "receive the reward of the faithful and a place in the celestial Kingdom of God." With a desire for all people to receive this reward, he testified of Jesus Christ and preached repentance throughout his ministry.
Sisters, please come to class with examples from the scriptures that have increased your faith, given you an answer to your prayers, or inspired you to action.
Thanks,
Karen Armstrong
