[QUOTE="El Correcto, post: 5560623, member: 60631"] No it’s not. Repentance is just acknowledging you are sinful like everyone else and grace is the perfect forgiveness offered by god of people who acknowledge Jesus Christ. To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable: [URL='https://www.biblestudytools.com/luke/18-10.html']10 [/URL]“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
