Overview
Repentance begins at conversion--but it doesn't stop there. It's an ongoing attitude for daily living in Christ. Repentance is not religious penance, self-effort or condemnation, says Jack Miller. True repentance puts us in right relationship with the Lord and enables us to walk in the fullness of His Spirit, growing and being used in the fullness of His purpose for us. These principles were learned in the fires of Jack's life, and in this new edition his widow, Rose Marie, has written an epilogue telling of Jack's own journey of living out repentance on a daily basis. As my spiritual father for twenty-one years, Jack showed me the enormous difference between guilt-laden penance and gospel-kissed repentance.

It is nothing less than an attempt to reclaim biblical Christianity from a modern powerless variety. --from the foreword by Andr e Seu Senior Writer, WORLD Magazine Author of Won't Let You Go Unless You Bless Me, Normal Kingdom Business and We Shall Have Spring Again About the Author: C.
