I wish Adino was here to enage in this...Confession and Repentance are not necessarily the same thing..

My question is, if a person has a repented heart full of faith, yet in weak moment he or she sinned, are they instantly lost until they say "Forgive me for my sins"? Do they need to cry or make a long prayer at an alter?

  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
