Savior forgives sins "upon earth" and not just at the final judgment. He does not excuse us in our sins. He does not condone our return to past sins. But when we repent and obey His gospel, He forgives us.
The Lord's compassion and grace are the means whereby "in process of time" we overcome the world through the enabling power of the Atonement. As we humbly seek this precious gift,"weak things become strong unto us," and by his strength, we are made able to do that which we could never do alone.
The Lord looks upon the light we have received, the desires of our hearts, and our actions, and when we repent and seek His forgiveness, He forgives. As we consider our own lives and the lives of our loved ones and acquaintances, we should be equally willing to forgive ourselves and others.
