“The First Fruits of Repentance Is Baptism”

Brant Gardner

Mormon succinctly describes the moral part of the celestialization process. The penalty of the law leads to repentance, and repentance leads to baptism. Baptism requires faith in the Savior. The baptized person accepts the Messiah and lives the commandments, thus making redemption operational. The sin is removed.
