Im glad you asked that question. This is Biblical New Testament repentance.
Luke 14:25-27
25And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them, 26If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. 27And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
Its when one surrenders their life to Christ. They die to all other competing interests.
Much different than saying Im sorry
