Bible Question: Does that mean I dont have to repent of my sin. I just need to admit it? |
Bible Answer: No, you need to do more than admit your sin. You need to repent of it. To repent is to change one's mind; to change the way you think and act. Don't take my word for it -- look it up in any Bible dictionary or English dictionary. It involves more than a feeling of remorse. It also involves more than just an admission of guilt. A person could admit that he sinned without ever changing the way he thinks and acts -- without ever turning from the sin and toward Christ. |
