Miracle of forgiveness
Is the miracle of forgiveness a respected book by Mormons ?
..must make sacrifice of his own life to atone. for the blood of Christ alone under certain circumstances will not avail." - Bruce R. McConkie
And so I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven, … Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man (a.k.a., Jesus) will be forgiven (Matthew 12:31-32).

Not exactly. It's a respected book by a single Mormon (not Mormons): Spencer W. Kimball.

My husband just bought a brand new copy and started reading it. We already have a copy and I'm kinda ticked he got another one.
They sell it at the bookstore and I'll bet there are bishops that still hand it out. Yes, it is respected by most believing Mormons I know.

That point, in The Miracle of Forgiveness, about it being better for the rape victim to die resisting the rape might be an instance where respect for this book may falter.
