What we love once, we love forever. Shall there be joy in heaven over those who repent, yet no forgiveness for them upon earth?

The more faithful preachers are to the Word of God in their preaching, the more liable they are to the charge of hypocrisy. Why? Because the more faithful people are to the Word of God the higher the message is that they will preach. The higher the message, the further they will be from obeying themselves.

There is no more confused message that you and I could give to a lost and dying world than to live in sin and at the same time to tell people about the transforming power of Jesus Christ. There isn't a more confusing thing we can do to our kids and the generation behind us, to this world.
God will not use a compromised life to reach a compromised world. God will use a life that is given over to Him, that is a demonstration of the message that through the power of Jesus Christ and His love He can transform our lives and set us free.

If we rebuke our heart by a calm, mild remonstrance, with more compassion for it than passion against it and encourage it to make amendment, then repentance conceived in this way will sink far deeper and penetrate more effectually than fretful, angry, stormy repentance.
Francis de SalesTags: resolution repentance

And here, shipmates, is true and faithful repentance; not clamorous for pardon, but grateful for punishment.
Herman MelvilleTags: punishment repentance atonement
Repentance was never yet produced in any man's heart apart from the grace of God. As soon may you expect the leopard to regret the blood with which its fangs are moistened,—as soon might you expect the lion of the wood to abjure his cruel tyranny over the feeble beasts of the plain, as expect the sinner to make any confession, or offer any repentance that shall be accepted of God, unless grace shall first renew the heart.
Charles Haddon SpurgeonTags: repentance grace-of-god
There is no repentance where a man can talk lightly of sin, much less where he can speak tenderly and lovingly of it.
Charles Haddon SpurgeonTags: sin repentance
If you are renewed by grace, and were to meet your old self, I am sure you would be very anxious to get out of his company.
