The Book of Mormon makes it clear that Mormons only receive grace after they do all they can do. In the Book of 2 Nephi 25:23 it says: (emphasis added) "for we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do." Moroni 10:32 is the IF...THEN statement for grace: (emphasis added) "... if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you" The LDS published "Bible Dictionary" defines grace as: (emphasis added) "grace is an enabling power that allows men and women to lay hold on eternal life and exaltation after they have expended their own best efforts."

In case you might doubt the above interpretation of "All We Can Do", Here are a couple of references | Reference |
---|---|---|
. |
On December 9th, 1982, Ezra Taft Benson gave a talk entitled, "After All We Can Do", and said the following: "What is meant by 'after all we can do'? 'After all we can do' includes extending our best effort. 'After all we can do' includes living His commandments. 'After all we can do' includes loving our fellowmen and praying for those who regard us as their adversary. 'After all we can do' means clothing the naked, feeding the hungry, visiting the sick and giving 'succor [to] those who stand in need of [our] succor' (Mosiah 4:15)-remembering that what we do unto one of the least of God's children, we do unto Him (see Matthew 25:34-40; D&C 42:38). 'After all we can do' means leading chaste, clean, pure lives, being scrupulously honest in all our dealings and treating others the way we would want to be treated." |
Ezra Taft Benson, "After All We Can Do," Christmas Devotional, Salt Lake City, Utah, 9 December 1982. Quoted in The Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, p. 354. |

I've written a detailed report on how "After" in "After All We Can Do" is actually proven to be a preposition of time. |
"After" is a preposition of time |
