What is the nature of the torment of the wicked?

Thomas R. Valletta

The Prophet Joseph Smith taught: “The great misery of departed spirits in the world of spirits … is to know that they come short of the glory that others enjoy and that they might have enjoyed themselves, and they are their own accusers … .

“The torment of disappointment in the mind of man is as exquisite as a lake burning with fire and brimstone” ( Joseph Smith [manual], 224).
