    I'm not talking about works, i'm talking about sin. If a person says they are a Christian and live in sin, they have an unrepentant heart and are not truly trusting Jesus as their Lord. When a TRUE believer becomes born again in Christ, they still struggle with sin, yes I'm not denying that, and doing enough good things to counteract that won't get you into heaven (as the catholic church believes you need to do more good works in addition to believing in Jesus Christ as your Lord). BUT if you DO NOT REPENT when you (as a Christian) DO fall short, you are not truly following Christ because you have a new heart and you should be convicted by the Spirit every time you DO break a law and sin, which MAKES us want to REPENT. Being a believer in Jesus changes your heart, and you will want to stop sinning (it doesn't mean you will never sin again) and you will WANT to live more like Christ did and that is part of the santification process. Some verses to remember where God COMMANDS us to repent as a believer in Christ:

    What Does the Bible Say About Repentance?

    You're twisting my words around, and I don't appreciate that and you seem to have a confused idea of what repenting (repentance) is in Biblical sense.

    Repenting in it's simplest form is having Godly sorrow for a sin you have committed and in response to that sorrow you actively TURN AWAY from your sin, which is, the sinful nature, and seek after righteousness. (repenting of sin is part of the sanctification process that all TRUE, BIBLE-BELIEVING Christians go through in their lives- if you don't repent of your sins you are not truly a follower of Christ according to the Bible) Repentance isn't a one time thing only either, it is something Christians do over and over after they fall short.

    eschatology that is not A Mil has NOTHING to do with the Gospel itself, not unless one holds to full preterist views!

    Repentance is a synonym for faith, nothing more in terms of the gospel.

    NONE of that though has anything to do with how one views eschatology!

    If in the Messianic Age right now, there would be no more wars, no sickness, and Jesus known and worshiped by all!

    I am done talking with Yeshua1 and Sai

    You both are DENYING SCRIPTURE and TAKING IT OUT OF CONTEXT and ADDING YOUR OWN MEANINGS. I rebuke you in the name of Christ for your demon-minded words. May God show you mercy.

    In Jesus name.

    Goodbye.

    Holding to the Premil position is denying the scriptures and holding to demonic theology?
