How do we know repentance from dead works is true?

Answered in 1 source

Repentance from dead works is affirmed as true by its Biblical foundation and the transformative experience it produces in believers.

Repentance from dead works is established in Scripture as a core tenet of the Christian faith, as expressed in Hebrews 6:1. This doctrine is rooted in an understanding of God’s grace and the believer’s need for Christ's righteousness. True repentance is evidenced in the life of a believer by a tangible change in the way they perceive their own works. They come to see their past reliance on human effort as futile, leading them to trust solely in Christ for salvation. The transformation that takes place is a clear indication that the work of the Holy Spirit is effective in producing repentance from dead works, thus validating its truth.
