No Sin Beyond Repentance (Chapter 15, Paragraph 4)

“As repentance is to be continued through the whole course of our lives, upon the account of the body of death and the motions thereof…”

Repentance is not an emergency measure; it is the Christian’s daily discipline. Because we still struggle with indwelling sin, we must continually turn from it.

“…so it is every man’s duty to repent of his particular known sins particularly.”

Vague sorrow is not enough. God calls us to confess specific sins. Repentance is not general guilt but a pointed acknowledgment of where we have disobeyed Him (Ps. 32:5; Prov. 28:13).

Application for the Believer:

There is no sin so dark that God’s grace cannot cleanse it. If you have fallen deeply, do not let guilt silence your cry for mercy. Run to Christ. Confess your specific sins, not with mere regret but with humble repentance and a desire to walk in newness of life. God does not cast off His children when they fail—He disciplines and restores them. Let this truth give you courage to return again and again to the throne of grace. Repentance is not a mark of failure, but of faith. Keep short accounts with God, and trust in His pardoning love.
