Dave spoke about repentance from 2 Corinthians 7:10 to show that Paul talks about Godly sorrow and worldly sorrow in repentance.
Dave referred to the scene in The Jungle Book where Shere Khan meets Kaa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXjviLBYrS8.
Dave also used the example of worldly sorrow as a “get out of jail free card “.
Question 1
Please discuss if this is understood. For example you ask God to forgive you simply to be able to carry on living the way you were.
Paul was looking for the repentance to result in a life style change.
A good example of the way to repent is Psalm 51.
Question 2
Discuss how David’s repentance is first to God and then asks for the Holy Spirit to cleanse him and change him.
If people keep sinning in the same area, then discuss if they have truly understood Godly repentance.
This could be a very sensitive issue with many. We need to move on from a 'simple' understanding of cheap grace like the get out of jail card, but not slip into guilt. Worldly sorrow leads to guilt. Remember 1 John 1 v 7.
