Repentance requires the end of our pride. Repentance requires at least four things. 1) It begins with 'realization' of our spiritual condition. 2) It means 'recognition' of our spiritual danger (certain death). 3) It requires 'renunciation' of the path we are on. 4)And it ends with resolution to take the only way of escape (turn around). Repentance is about turning to Jesus and His way of being human.
