Why do Christians need to repent according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

Christians need to repent to acknowledge their sins and receive God's mercy.

Repentance is crucial for believers as it acknowledges the reality of sin and the need for God's mercy. Nehemiah 8 reveals that when the people heard the Law, they were cut to the heart, recognizing their transgressions. Such an awareness is the work of the Holy Spirit, who convicts individuals of their sins (John 16:8). This is not merely a formal acknowledgment but a heartfelt response that leads to seeking forgiveness and embracing the grace that God offers through Christ. Repentance restores fellowship with God and is essential for spiritual health.
