Eli, you probably already saw this, but this is right from the LDS website.

To repent, you:

Recognize that you have sinned and feel sincere sorrow for what you have done.
Stop sinning and strive never to commit sin again.
Confess your sins to the Lord and ask for forgiveness. If you have sinned against another person, you must ask that person for forgiveness.

Hi Anonymous, thanks for the comment.

Here's why I have to disagree with you: because the Scripture says "There is none righteous, no, not one... there is none that doeth good, no, not one." (Romans 3:10,11)

It is common to fool yourself into thinking you love God and have dedicated your life to Him, thinking you serve Him with your whole heart. Paul did that. What Paul

I can tell you what the missionaries thought. They thought this guy is trying to say that we don't have to keep the commandments, do good works, etc. because Christ paid the price for all of your sins ... so sin all you like it's pointless not to. Why try to live a Christ-like life to the best of your ability? That would be their take-away from the conversation.
You assume they are

Eli, what a blessing to read this!! I would hug you now, if you were here. Praise God for growing His children and for giving us the Gospel. Thank the Lord for Jesus, and for putting to shame the works of the flesh!!

As a response to Jesse's question, if I may quietly say a word or two, I believe the Lord is justified in giving mankind conditions of fulfillment which we "cannot" fulfill

Agree with you Eli about SELF. Self is the spirit of anti-christ. It's vitally important to repent of SELF; and humble ourselves before the Lord. To relinquish what we think & agree with the Word of God 100%. This article gives a deeper understanding of Mormons. Thank you! Margie

Eli,

I agree with you completely. I think you were falsely accusing me. We don't need to repent of the symptoms, but the origin. Outward actions are mere symptoms of an internal condition of the heart. We need to repent of self, or selfishness, we need to repent of a selfish heart. Sinful actions cease only when a sinful heart is removed, when the Spirit brings us to a place of repenting

Hi Jesse, good to hear from you.

Hi Jesse, good to hear from you.

The reason why you 'don't get it' is because you have a low view of the law and an incorrect view of repentance. True Christian repentance is to repent of SELF. You are misunderstanding repentance to be about the symptoms, not about the problem. Sins are the symptoms of the greater problem of self. You must repent of SELF to be saved.

Ironically

QUOTE: "You will never repent of your sins, because the Bible says you cannot." Eli

QUOTE: "you can't repent of your sins" Eli

Can you explain this? Unless a person repents, they will perish. But your saying that nobody can repent?? I don't get it. Why would God make repentance a condition of salvation if repentance was impossible? Certainly God would give us the power to repent

A good read, Eli. I have to wonder what the missionaries' take of the discussion was, though.
