Monday quote

Though true repentance is never too late, yet late repentance is seldom true.

  1. I don't think Thomas Brooks, or any other human, is in a position to make such a claim.

  2. If "true" means "genuine" here then perhaps you are correct.

    I read it more like true to the nature of things rather than whether or not the repentance is true/ genuine

    Though true repentance is never too late,
    yet late repentance seldom happens.

    If one puts off repentance till later then he may never repent.
