2 Corinthians 7:10
Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.
Outwardly professing and confessing to belong to God but, inwardly continuing to please the urges and evil desires of the sinful nature of the Devil in you. Refusing to repent from all the acts of the sinful nature of the Devil in you amounts to rebellion towards God. Worldly sorrow is the stubborn refusal to give up pleasing the sinful nature of the Devil whereas, godly sorrow leads to repentance from living according to the wants and desires of the sinful nature of the Devil in you. Outwardly pretending to be a child of God, when you are not one. Just how long can you pretend to be one? You will be defeated soon! Warnings have been given, but to no avail. We observe no changes. You show no fear of God. You have no reverence for Him. You have no respect for His Word at all. Stubbornness and rebellion towards the LORD has always been paid in full later. Probably, you had never seen any demonstration of God's power in your life yet, therefore you are full of unbelief. You are going to see a great one soon. Demonstration of God's power through His Spirit works two ways. One will cause you to repent and the other punishment. You will see either one. When it comes, you will know it.
Jeremiah 23:17
They keep saying to those who despise me, 'The LORD says: You will have peace.' And to all who follow the stubbornness of their hearts they say, 'No harm will come to you.'
