Real Repentance (1 John 1:5-2:2) 1 Thing Matters
-
- Spirituality
Contrary to popular belief, “repentance” isn’t the dirty word many people think it is. While repentance does involve admitting and owning up to the filth of our sins, it isn’t repentance if it stops there.
No, real repentance also includes embracing by faith what Jesus has done with our sins: wiped them away and washed us clean from them. The result? Not only are we left standing in the perfect purity of God’s light, but we also have the newfound desire to remain there.
