2 Corinthians 7:9-10

It is commonly believed that a temporary remorseful feeling over past mistakes—without a real "turning" and "change," and beginning to grow in godly character—is all there is to being "saved."

God says such "repentance" is totally unacceptable and leads only to death!

Repentance is something far more than an "experience." True repentance—"godly sorrow"—involves a complete about-face in our thinking and being, as well as a change of allegiance.
