The Doctrine of Repentance

Lk.5:32

Salvation requires repentance [Acts 20:20-21]

The Lord is still calling sinners to repentance today.

 

God’s word puts much emphasis on repentance, yet it is still a very misunderstood doctrine

 

Repentance is best defined by its three parts:

It is a change in MIND, that results in a change in HEART, that results in a change in DIRECTION.

[Gen.6:6-7] First mention, God repented!

True repentance is the complete package.

Change in MIND (Involves the Intellect)

Change in HEART (Involves the Emotions)

Just how much emotion is necessary? [Ps.38:18] [Lk.18:13-14] [Matt.26:75] [Heb.12:15-17] A shower of tears found no repentance

Change in DIRECTION (Involves the Will or Actions)

And turned from his sin [1Thes.1:9] [Acts26:18]
