How do we know repentance is required for salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Repentance is clearly stated as a command from Jesus for all who desire life (Luke 13:3).

Repentance is not just a suggestion but a command from Christ, affirming its essential role in the salvation process. In Luke 13:3, Jesus emphatically states, 'Except you repent, you shall all likewise perish.' This demonstrates that repentance is critical for gaining eternal life. Furthermore, true repentance reflects a heart that acknowledges its failure to meet God's standards and depends solely on Christ for redemption. Therefore, recognizing the need for repentance is a sign of genuine faith and a work of God’s grace in the believer’s heart.
