Clarifying Our Commitments
The last of five primary principles of Biblical Repentance is presented in this study, namely: Biblical Repentance Clarifies our Commitments. A clear pattern is present in the experiences of repentance found in Daniel 9, Psalm 51, Psalm 69, 2 Samuel 24, Joshua 7; James 5:16, Acts 9:4 with 1 Corinthians 15:9, etc.
In every case a movement from personal conviction to public commitment to the great concerns of Almighty God is demonstrated. Charles Spurgeon expresses the essence of this working out of repentance, this desire to “undo the evil” one has committed against the Plan, People, Place, and Person of God, as it occurred in David’s life with the following words:
[David] had done mischief by his sin, and had, as it were, pulled down [Jerusalem’s] walls; he, therefore, implores the Lord to undo the evil, and establish his church. God can make his cause to prosper, and in answer to prayer he will do so. Without his building we labour in vain; therefore, are we the more instant and constant in prayer. There is surely no grace in us if we do not feel for the church of God, and take a lasting interest in its welfare. Spurgeon, C. H. (n.d.). The treasury of David: Psalms 27-57 (Vol. 2, p. 407). Marshall Brothers.
