Gen 42:21-22. Guilt is a warning of danger and a protection from additional damage


Elder Bednar taught:
All of us have experienced the pain associated with a physical injury or wound. When we are in pain, we typically seek relief and are grateful for the medication and treatments that help to alleviate our suffering. Consider sin as a spiritual wound that causes guilt…. Guilt is to our spirit what pain is to our body – a warning of danger and a protection from additional damage” (We Believe in Being Chaste,” Ensign, May 2013, 44).
