Confess AND Turn or you will Burn

There are many people who make a habit of confessing the same sin over and over. They confess tonight and tomorrow they go on doing the same sin.  Such a person does not receive forgiveness but he is rather piling the wrath of God onto him for willfully sinning.  We read in Proverbs 28:13 "He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will find compassion.”  If you confess your sin, you must turn away from sin, you must REPENT from that sin and not go back to the same sin or else you just didn’t mean it, you didn’t repent.  You did not intend turning away from that sin.  God requires that we turn away from sin and obey Him and live holiness.  We read in Hebrews 10:26-27 He says: "For if we go on sinning WILLFULLY after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a CERTAIN terrifying expectation of judgment and  the FURY OF A FIRE which will CONSUME the ADVERSARIES.” That is how serious it is.  If we go on sinning we can know for sure that we will definitely end up in hell.  We must CONFESS our sins and turn or else we will burn.
May Jesus bless you.
