Send us Fan MailWhat if feeling bad about sin is not the same as repenting? And what if painful correction is not proof that God has rejected someone, but evidence that God is still working to restore that person?In 2 Corinthians 7, Paul explains the difference between godly sorrow and worldly sorrow. One produces repentance that leads to salvation without regret. The other produces death. This distinction helps us understand why genuine repentance goes beyond emotion and becomes visible through changed actions.This teaching also examines what it means to bring holiness to completion in the fear of God. Holiness is not the price we pay to become God’s children. It is the response of people who have already been received into His family.In this episode:Why God’s promises call believers toward holinessThe difference between remorse and genuine repentanceHow biblical correction can become an expression of loveWhy mature holiness becomes visibleHow character affects responsibility, influence, and stewardshipWhy grace and the fear of the Lord must not be separatedWhat the prosperity gospel leaves incompleteGod wants His people to walk closely with Him, remove what damages fellowship, and become mature enough to steward what He places in their hands.https://www.skool.com/estero-ekklesia-1658Support the Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2394920/support Support the show
