Can God forgive us without repentance?

Ignorance is not a crime, but it leads to the commission of serious errors.

He who spurns genuine repentance and tramples on forgiveness can never progress in the spirit world.

Let both be exercised on the dying bed if never before, and the indwelling spirit will certainly be strengthened thereby.

Oh! How I pity that one who dies when vile passions are aroused, who neither repents, nor forgives.

Within him, there is a two-edged sword that he cannot easily banish in spirit life.

The church is right in its estimate of the value of repentance and forgiveness, for I say that without repentance and forgiveness, there can be no salvation.

The dying one should be placed in harmonious relations with all, especially those he has injured, and those who have wronged him.

Before the spirit can advance rapidly that condition is very essential.

If you have, in any manner, deprived a dying man of his vested rights, seek his bedside and ask his pardon, and make all honourable amends possible, for you must do that sooner or later. Never allow an enemy to approach the side of the dying unless actuated with the spirit of repentance and forgiveness.

The attendants of the dying should always be inspired with the most tender love. Hate should never have access to the sick room.

When one passes away under the influence of malignant spite, his soul is pierced with venomous arrows, and he must pluck them from his soul in spirit life—on the contrary, when his controlling aspiration is love towards all, he exalts his whole nature, as if planted in a fertile soil.
