Wednesday, January 12, 2011 ( Repentence @ 2:15 AM ) Hi all, a post on repentence. Q. What is repentance unto life? A. Repentance unto life is a saving grace, whereby a sinner, out of a true sense of his sin and apprehension of the mercy of God in Christ, doth, with grief and hatred of his sin, turn from it unto God, with full purpose of and endeavor after new obedience. The Westminster Shorter Catechism, #87. Two observations: One, the motive for repentance is not only sorrow for sin but also a sense of the mercy of God in Christ. We have zero motivation to repent unless we see the mercy of God awaiting us. Not the slap of God but the embrace of God. Repentance is not just turning from sin; it is also turning to God with a bright hope in his mercy. Two, the outcome of repentance is not a restored status quo, getting back to “normal,” getting back to where we were before we sinned. The outcome is new obedience, unprecedented obedience, perhaps unheard-of obedience. Newness of life. True repentance is hope-inspired and newness-creating. Taken from: http://thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/rayortlund/2011/01/04/what-is-true-repentance/ One little thing i might add, repentance is that which we have to / will do everyday of our lives till the day we die or when Jesus returns. So don't give up when you see yourself failing, we will only stop sinning when Jesus removes our sin totally from us. It is not sinning that ruins men, but sinning and not repenting, falling and not getting up again. - Matthew Henry Labels: Bible, Questions and Answers, Repentance 0 comments |
