I believe the Bible is clear that repentance is not only a one time act for the unbeliever but also and ongoing act for the believer as well. My question is based on Scripture would you says the repentance of a believer is to be the same in content as that of an unbeliever? I have been more and more convinced by reading Scripture that they differ. So that as believers our repentance is not so much a need to ask God to please forgive us of our sins (such as an unbeliever) but that we are to confess our sins honestly to God and then thank Him for His already forgiving us of our sins through the blood of Jesus when we were first converted. Thoughts? Any books that you know of that touch on this distinction? Got any verses of Scripture that could help show that I am correct or incorrect in my thoughts?
Thank you!
