Matthew 21:28-32
H B Repent C B F
2Co 7:9 As it is, I rejoice, not because you were grieved, but because you were grieved into repenting. For you felt a godly grief, so that you suffered no loss
through us.2Co 7:10 For godly grief produces a repentance that
leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death.
2Co 7:11 For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, but also what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have
proved yourselves innocent in the matter.2Co 7:12 So although I wrote to you, it was not for the sake of the one who did the wrong, nor for the
sake of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your earnestness for us might be revealed to you
in the sight of God.
Great is the difference betwixt a man's being frightened at, and humbled for his
sins. Thomas Fuller
We have a strange illusion that mere time cancels sin. But mere time does nothing
either to the fact or to the guilt of a sin. --CS Lewis
Jesus reserved his hardest words for the hidden sins of hypocrisy, pride, greed and
legalism. Philip Yancey
Honesty before God requires the most fundamental risk of faith we can take: the risk
that God is good, that God does love us unconditionally. It is in taking this risk that we
rediscover our dignity. To bring the truth of ourselves, just as we are, to God, just as God is, is the most dignified thing we can do in this life.
Gerald May
A farmer has greater love for land which bears fruitfully, after he has cleared it of thorns, than
for land which never had thorns but which never yielded a fruitful harvest. --Gregory the Great
Some often repent, yet never reform; they resemble a man traveling in a
dangerous path, who frequently starts and stops, but never turns back. --Bonnell Thornton
It's one thing not to sin---it's another not to want to!
--Jacquelyn K. Weasley
You are the way you are because that's the way you want to be. If you really wanted to be any different, you would be in the process of changing right
now. --Fred Smith
