Q: What’s the difference between faith and repentance?
A: That’s a very perceptive question!
They Only Function In Unison
In practical, and scriptural, terms there’s little difference, because bible faith is an action, not mere mental assent, and repentance without a corresponding change in action constitutes hypocrisy.
For example; the mental assenter declares; by His stripes I was healed, but reaches for medicine when Satan tries to put symptoms of disease on him.
That’s not Holy Bible faith, it’s unbelief in action, and plain hypocrisy in words.
