JOHN BUNYAN'S FORGOTTEN CATECHISM on Confession of Sin ** Part 2

What does true confession of sin look like in the eyes of God? Is it merely admitting that we've done wrong, or is it something far deeper? In this episode of The Brother Carlton Show, we continue our study through John Bunyan's Instruction for the Ignorant, exploring one of the most neglected subjects in modern Christianity: the confession of sin. Drawing from dozens of Scriptures, Bunyan demonstrates that genuine confession is far more than empty words or religious tradition. It flows from a heart convicted by God, grieved over sin, and longing for His mercy. Together we examine the deceitfulness of the human heart, why every sin should be confessed, how God's Word exposes what we often cannot see in ourselves, and why repentance and confession remain the ongoing marks of a true believer. You'll also hear a biblical warning against superficial religion and "easy-believism," along with an encouraging reminder that salvation is entirely the work of God. True believers don't trust in their own righteousness—they cast themselves completely upon the mercy of Christ. In this episode you'll discover: Why confession of sin is a continual practice in the Christian life. How God's Word reveals the hidden corruption of the human heart. Why repentance and confession always accompany genuine faith. The biblical reasons God commands us to confess our sins. How to distinguish heartfelt confession from empty religious ritual. Why a broken and contrite heart is precious in God's sight. What Bunyan teaches about hatred of sin, holiness, and God's mercy. Why Christ alone is our righteousness and only hope before a holy God.
