How does one repent according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Biblical repentance involves changing one’s mind about sin and recognizing reliance on God's grace for salvation.

Repentance, as defined in the context of the sermon, is to think differently about one's condition and need for salvation. It signifies a transformation of mind where a person recognizes their sinfulness and relies not on their merit but on God's grace. This aligns with Proverbs which contrasts the thoughts of the proud with the diligent thoughts of those seeking God's honor. Genuine repentance leads to a humble acknowledgment of one's inability to save oneself, firmly placing trust in Christ's finished work for redemption.
