REPENTANCE OF SIN IS NOT EARNING(working for it) SALVATION.
(Don't misinterpret REPENTANCE OF SIN as a Work. It is a decision to acknowledge our sinfulness, and committed sins, false beliefs about salvation.)
YOU CAN'T TRULY BELIEVE OR HAVE FAITH WITH OUT HATING SIN OR REPENTANCE. YOU CAN'T FOLLOW GOD AND DANCE WITH THE DEVIL.
REPENTANCE IS A DECISION TO ACKNOWLEDGE SIN AS AN ENEMY OF GOD, THE CAUSE OF HIS DEATH, AND WHAT IS HURTING GOD. IT IS TO CUT SATAN'S INFLUENCE ON YOU AND DENY THE FLESH OF ITS FOOD.
REPENTANCE OF SIN DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU CAN'T SIN AGAIN, OUR OLD NATURE IF UNCHECKED AND WE PUT OUR GUARDS DOWN WILL BE USED BY SATAN THAT WE CAN SIN AGAIN. SO WE NEED CONFESSION AND REPENTANCE EVEN AS A SAVED FOR GROWTH CLEANSING WE ALWAYS NEED OUR MIND BE CHECKED, AND BE TRANSFORMED. ROMANS 12:1-3 SO TO AVOID DISCIPLINE AND LOSING OF REWARDS(HEBREWS 12:5-11).
We are saved by Repenting of our sins and put our Faith in Christ(Mark 1:15). A person that can be saved only by faith without repentance is a person who is perfect, without false ideas about salvation, who has never committed wrong that he don't need to change his mind about this things. If anyone who have no sin, and think he is always right, that man alone DOES NOT NEED REPENTANCE!
