    The Case For Daily Repentance: Examining Yourself Daily In Your Walk With Christ

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 26, 2022
     | 1,453 views

    One of the best things you can do is sit down with another Christian or your pastor and confess the sin. It loses a lot of power when you share it with someone else.

    Today I’d like to make the case to you for the concept of daily repentance. As Christians we know we must be born again of the Spirit to share in the inheritance of Christ. We must be truly born again. We must be a new person. And as a new person in Jesus Christ we have the holy spirit within us. ...read more
