Each violation of the divine law must be accounted for. In the day of judgment, the wicked will have “a perfect knowledge” of all their guilt, and their uncleanness, and their nakedness, while the righteous will have a “perfect knowledge of their enjoyment, and their righteousness, being clothed with purity, yea, even with the robe of righteousness” (2 Nephi 9:14).
Even when we repent in this life in the sincerity of our hearts, the remembrance of the sin remains, though in time the agony and the sense of personal disappointment leave us.
