Apology of the Augsburg Confession: Article 12. Repentance #3

Concord Matters from KFUO Radio

A clear conscience is only provided through the forgiveness of sins by the blood of Christ. Outward deeds are a fruit of faith, yet repentance is never separated from faith in Christ. Forgiveness in Christ brings the final healing. The Roman Catholic Church agreed that forgiveness is part of repentance, but the conditions of forgiveness were centered on the contributions of the person and not on the full satisfaction found in Christ. By the payment of the indulgence through God in Christ, we repent and receive the free forgiveness of sins.

Rev. Keith Brustuen, St. Paul Lutheran Church, Montevideo, MN joins Rev. Brady Finnern to continue our study on the Scriptural truth of Repentance.
