Jules, this is an interesting question concerning this woman. I agree with Dragon's take on this. One thing I have noticed that CEers do have is a clear conscience. They do not feel that they are constantly sinning and in need of constant repentance from evil sins. Instead, their form of repentance is to constantly try to learn and grow-a much more positive outlook on life. I believe there is too little info for us to determine whether or not this woman received her CE at that moment. And I must say that being forgiven of one's sins is something that takes place from time to time [hopefully often] with the average faithful member of the Church. When a person is touched by the Spirit, they are cleansed because the Spirit cannot dwell in an unclean habitation. When they are healed by a spiritual gift, they are cleansed from their sins. As a person learns to follow the Spirit more and more constantly, they are more and more often clean from sin. According to the setting, with her being a repentant big time sinner, it would seem logical that she had not developed that spirituality to a point of having the spirit as her constant companion and being ready for her calling and election to be made sure. She was unlike Enos, for example, who was the son of a prophet and was at such a spiritual level as to be able to hear the Spirit as he prayed all day.
