Repentance means 2 important things that we must not forget.
First it means a change of mind. This means when we think about our sins we think differently, flee the thoughts that drove us to sin, and fill our minds with God and His word to keep our minds pure.
Second it means a change of heart. This means a change of directions, behaviors, and attitudes. We need to run from the sin and get rid of it from our life. And change direction and go in a new holy way.
We must have both important parts of repentance or else we are not truly repenting and not sorry for our sin. Which then means we do not stand before God clean and holy and we are still doomed for destruction. And if we do not have both parts are we truly Christian and in love with Jesus?
