Repentance Lifelong
Mark 1:15
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent you, and believe the gospel.


"Sir," said a young man to Philip Henry, "how long should a man go on repenting? How long, Mr. Henry, do you mean to go on repenting yourself?" "Sir," was the reply, "I hope to carry my repentance to the very gates of heaven. Every day I find I am a sinner, and every day I need to repent. I mean to carry my repentance, by God's help, up to the very gates of heaven." May this be your divinity, and mine! May. repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ, be Jachin and Boaz — the two great pillars before the temple of our religion, the cornerstones in our system of Christianity.

(Bishop Ryle.)
