Forgiveness vs. Repentance

We get forgiveness confused with repentance. God forgives us despite what we do. However, repentance is being forgiven but with a different mentality. You can't repent and keep doing the same thing. As a man thinketh, he is also. We have to renew our way of way thinking to stop our bad behaviors. We always use "the flesh is weak" as an excuse. In Galations 5:6 Walk in the spirit and you shall not lust in flesh.
