Quotes (455)

awpink.jpg Repentance is taking sides with God against ourselves. It is the unsparing judgment of ourselves because of our high-handed rebellion. It is a ceasing to love and tolerate sin, and to excuse ourselves for committing it. It is a mourning before God because of our transgressions of His holy Law. Therefore, Christ taught, “Except ye repent, ye shall likewise perish” (Luke 13:3), for He would not condone evil. He came to save His people from their sins, and not in them.

- A.W. Pink

1886 – 1952
