Bible Question: Question - what constitutes true repentance? Must one turn from a sin once and for all never again to return to it, or does one turn from it each time it surfaces? If the latter, how can it be said with any certainty that there has ever been true repentance if there is a constant turning away from recurring sin. |
Bible Answer: Greetings Achilles and welcome to the forum. When you say “repent” are you referring to that which was spoken of by Christ as in Luke 13:3? Luke 13:3 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish. I want to make sure we are both on the same page. I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |
