Lifelong Repentance

Psalm 119, the greatest Psalm declaring the glory of God’s Law Word, ends with a most profound confession.
Psa. 119:176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep;
Seek Your servant,
For I do not forget Your commandments.
It is this combination of confession, helplessness in our own strength, and determination that by God’s grace should also be your testimony.
Because you have a merciful and sympathetic High Priest you are to live a life of faith, confession, and repentance.
We will consider three related points on the doctrine of repentance.

1. The necessity and place of repentance
2. The necessity of specific repentance
3. The necessity of confession to others and the granting of forgiveness
