 Now in regards to confessing sin to God as per 1 John 1.9, we talked about that earlier. If we confess our sin, he's faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Do we have to feel sorry when we sin? Metamelomai, do we have to regret it when we sin? In order for 1 John 1.9 to work, should you feel sorry about what you did? Do you have to promise God that you're never going to do that again before he will forgive you
