Repentance in the Bible
Repentance in the bible is a
good sign of salvation — the person without repentance to his evil deeds is a
wicked person. If the person has feeling of repentance it is possible that the
person has mercy in his / her fellow human.
However due to limitations of
human being and as we know humans are easy to deceived by co –humans especially
if the deceiver is so smart. They pretend those they repent to show to the
other fellow but in the deepest of their heart, they said something not right
after they showed their repentance, in short the repentance is hypocrisy.
Some approach to the other
people seek forgiveness their misdeed but not from the real heart that they
seek forgiveness to their intentional misdeed; approach with pathetic face and
other hypocrisy method.
God knows our heart, even
though you are repent to your misdeed still there is being that can see
anything. In this case, the people who practiced and had behavior like this are
dangerous compare to the people who done nothing after they did not approached
for forgiveness of their mistakes.
If the person approach and
repent to his / her misdeed with good heart; seeking forgiveness in order the
people who received the injustice shall put into ease — that person is
righteous.
If the people do something not
right especially if the deeds are mortal sins; there are verses in the bible
that those people did committed mortal sins should not pray for forgiveness
said by Jesus Christ.
Repentance is very important as
ingredient for salvation; however there are some cases that there was person
never repent but shall save as said by Christ but might that person repent his
mistakes in his hearts. We cannot ascertained if that person was repented his
sin or not. That person was on the cross together with the Lord Jesus Christ.
There was phrase in the bible
that mentioned if the person did that type of sin shall not forgive and that
sin is unforgivable here on earth and to the eternity. In short, there is
eternal sin that no one can forgive even the God Father in the heaven and there
was sin that forgivable and the time shall come if the person does sin
especially with intentional and from the evil heart, shall not renew from
repentance.
What if there was incident that
the person never apologized to the mistake that he / she done to the other
person but he / she apologized to the God Almighty still acceptable?
The answer in this type of
question is MAYBE; it is good to do an apologize to the person that you
aggravated especially if your misdeed was not intentional and maybe if the
person who did intentional with you but he / she approached for forgiveness
might still acceptable in the sight of the Lord.
The repentance is used by God
in order for them to forgive the person from his mistake; there was instance in
the bible that mentioned in the book of the revelation on the part of the NewTestament that God encourage the Church of the particular place to back in him.
He wants to repent that particular church to back in Him.
Repentance has great role in
terms of forgiveness in our sin and do not let your repentance prevail over to
your bad emotion.
