James Talmage on those who hear the gospel in the hereafter
No soul is justified in postponing his efforts to repent because of this assurance of
longsuffering and mercy. We know not fully on what terms repentance will be
obtainable in the hereafter; but to suppose that the soul who has wilfully
rejected the opportunity of repentance in his life will find it easy to repent
there is contrary to reason. To procrastinate the day of repentance is to deliberately
place ourselves in the power of the adversary. (James R. Talmage, The
Articles of Faith, 105).
