“Repentance and obedience are absolutely essential for the Atonement to work its complete miracle in your life. …
“The
Atonement was a selfless act of infinite, eternal consequence. …
Through it the Savior broke the bonds of death. … It opens the gates to
exaltation for all who qualify for forgiveness through repentance and obedience” (“The Atonement Can Secure Your Peace and Happiness,” Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2006, 42).
