REPENTANCE

There can be no salvation without true repentance. God looks upon your heart (soul). He expects a complete unreserved trust in him. First you must REPENT (regret with great godly sorrow, to be sorry to God with much hurt inside; to ask for forgiveness); trust in the Lord with all of your heart, mind, and soul.

Luke 15:7
"I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine persons, which need no repentance."

Acts 3:19"
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord."

Acts 8:22
"Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee."

Acts 17:30
"And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men everywhere to repent."

Matthew 3:2
"And saying Repent ye for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

Luke 13:3
"Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."
