Sorrow and Repentance

There are two kinds of sorrow:
            constructive sorrow
            & destructive sorrow.

Constructive sorrow
is better than destructive sorrow.

            Constructive sorrow is:
                
o    repentance (morally turning 180 degrees),
                
o    fruitful,
                
o    self-constructive and others-constructive,
                
o    of Heaven.

            Destructive sorrow is:
                
o    regret, (emotional, but staying as you are),
                
o    fruitless,
                
o    self-destructive and others-constructive,
                
o    of the Earth, hence of the world.

.

 

You cannot go backwards in time.

            So there are some past wrongs
            that even constructive sorrow cannot fix.

 

 

But we all go slowly to the future:

            So constructive sorrow causes you to do
            less wrong in the future.

            As right is the opposite of wrong
            so constructive sorrow causes you to do
            more right in the future.

JUDGMENT REPENTANCE
&
FORGIVENESS REPENTANCE

 

 

In the previous section I wrote that:

            there are two kinds of sorrow:
                       constructive sorrow
                       & destructive sorrow,

            and only constructive sorrow leads to repentance.

 

I now show that there are also
two kinds of repentance:

            Judgment repentance:
                       humbly doing good & not bad
                       causes
                       us to go to Heaven


                       our actions    prompt    God.

            Forgiveness repentance:
                       gratitude for our new eternal life
                       causes
                       us to humbly do good & not bad

           
            God’s actions    prompt    us.

THIS IS A TECHNICAL SITE

 

For something less technical & more practical
on Forgiveness repentance,
see:
YouTube: – Repentance, it's simple... -Dan Mohler.,,,,,

 

I don’t also include a link to Andrew Wommack’s material here
because it’s so thorough & lengthy.
Ideally, go to:
A better site than this one
and from there to Andrew’s site.
