29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Christ’s yoke is easy and HIS burden is light.

The LDS burden is VERY HEAVY and the yoke painful. This is true of ANY group that says Christ alone is not enough.

We as unregenerated humans cannot CHOOSE to walk in the ways of the Lord, we walk in his ways because he has ALREADY changed us and made us a new creature (regenerated us) by grace through faith in his FINISHED work on the Cross, not through our own ‘filthy rags’.
