Repentance Dear to the Christian
Mark 1:15
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent you, and believe the gospel.


Rowland Hill, when he was near death, said he had one regret, and that was that a dear friend who had lived with him for sixty years, would have to leave him at the gate of heaven. "That dear friend," said he, "is repentance; repentance has been with me all my life, and I think I shall drop a tear as I go through the gates, to think that I can repent no more."
