"Repentance is never out of season. Repentance is a grace of God's Spirit whereby a sinner is inwardly humbled and visibly reformed.O that we would therefore, while we are on this side of the grave, make our peace with God! Tomorrow may be our dying day; let this be our repenting day. In Adam we all suffered shipwreck and repentance is the only plank left us after shipwreck to swim to heaven. The first sermon that Christ preached, indeed, the first word of his sermon was 'Repent'. Repentance is a pure gospel grace. The covenant of works admitted no repentance; there it was, sin and die. Repentance came in by the gospel. Christ has purchased in his blood that repenting sinners shall be saved. The two great graces essential to a saint in this life are faith and repentance. These are the two wings by which he flies to heaven."
