I am at a loss to understand the concept of repenting for something we haven't yet done!

But what we are talking about is salvation and entry into Heaven. It is the difference between necessary AND sufficient, and necessary BUT insufficient.

What difference does that make - whatever that means? The concept of repenting for something you haven't done yet is ridiculous. How can you be sorry for something you haven't done yet? There can be no sorrow where there was no action done yet.

Also, salvation and entrance into heaven are two different things, so I've been told by Protestants.
