:::RobS please tell us what you mean by "seeking repentance from original sin", as it doesn't seem to "originate" in ourselves. [[User:VargasMilan|VargasMilan]] ([[User talk:VargasMilan|talk]]) Saturday, 19:04, 9 November 2019 (EST)

::::Recognizing our flawed nature and wanting to do something about. There are three paths one can take: (1) reject God, become an atheist, and think you can improve yourself or work out your own salvation (in this sense, salvation does not refer to the hereafter. Salvation begins the moment a person is spiritually born). This just Pride, or original sin coming to full fruition. (2) Hear the word of God but never do anything about it. These people a genuinely serious about wanting salvation from sin (in this life) but don't quite trust or believe God that he is serious about his promises. It's a lack of faith. Again, faith is not an intellectual doctrine that must be fully comprehended or a work to perform. It is the faith of child that is necessary. IOWs, adults might have some unlearning to do about the "wisdom of this world" to have faith in God and his promise of salvation (from sin, in this life. A gigantic Satanic lie is that salvation is a promise of an afterlife). (3) Have the faith of child and accept God for who he is, and believe what God says about you and sin is true.
