You are correct, Repentance and baptism come first. It is important to be forgiven of our sins, then we are to do the works and not return to our sins:
We are FIRST saved. People without the Spirit see no need for repentance and no legitimate reason to be baptized.
Thanks for quoting the scriptures from the D&C. However they are true. I did not notice anything contrary to what they stated.
Mormons have been indoctrinated with Mormonism. They can't see its errors until God reveals truth to them.
We are saved through the blood of Jesus Christ. He atoned for our sins and made our salvation possible. Thus we are not saved by works but by grace. That being said should we deny God by not doing the works being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate? God forbid that we should deny God.
Mormons don't understand mercy or grace because they have to EARN every blessing.
Mormons have to access the atonement by obedience to extra biblical laws.
