WHAT IS REPENTANCE?

Nobody is to "repent from their sins". What the Bible actually says is REPENT! The expression "from your sins" was added to "repent" by man and not God. With regard to the unbeliever, what the Bible teaches is "repentance toward God". Repentance simply means a change of mind, thus "metanoia", which comes from the Greek word "metanoeo". God is not against the sins of the sinner but against his/her carnal mind. Repentance means come to the elevated place of God.
