[J. Reuben Clark]

[In conversation with a woman regarding previous transgressions:] I explained to her that there were two sorts of forgiveness; first, the forgiveness of the people and the bishop, which was a forgiveness of the offense to them of her transgression, and consented to her being admitted to fellowship; but that the forgiveness of the sin itself rested with the Lord or with His Prophet, Seer and Revelator here, the President of the Church.
