When any desire to repeat it has died, that's when you know that sin has been forgiven. The intent is no longer there. Exactly! Thank You for saying this,dear Brother.
Luther's devilish "sin boldly" statement makes a mockery of God and His forgiveness.

Luther's devilish "sin boldly" statement makes a mockery of God and His forgiveness Indeed. Repentance means your desire for sin is gone and your sins are forgiven. If you continue to sin boldly where does repentance come in? Only Satan could devise such a theology, tailor-made for human nature.
