一、悔改得生命是福音恩典所賜，所以每位福音使者要傳講相信基督，也要傳講悔改福音才得生命。
Repentance unto life is a gospel grace (a), the doctrine of which is to be preached by every minister of the gospel, just as is the doctrine of faith in Christ (b).
二、罪人悔改，不但看到自己的危險，更看到且感受到他的罪何等污穢可憎，因為違背上帝的神聖本性和公義的律法，但更知道上帝在基督裡向悔改之人所顯的恩慈，就為自己的罪憂傷，並且恨惡自己的罪，轉離一切罪惡，歸向上帝，定意(委身)竭力按照上帝一切誡命所吩咐的與上帝同行。
By it a sinner – seeing and sensing not only the danger but also the filthiness and hatefulness of his sins, because they are contrary to God’s holy nature and his righteous law – turns from all his sins to God (c) in the realization that God promises mercy in Christ to those who repent, and so grieves for and hates his sins that he determines and endeavors to walk with God in all the ways that he commands (d).
三、雖 然 我 們 不 能 靠 悔 改 達 到 任 何 償 罪 的 功 效 ， 上 帝 也 絲 毫 不 是 因 為 我 們悔改才赦 免我 們 (赦罪 乃是上帝在基督裡白白的恩典 )﹔ 每個罪人都需要悔改，人不悔改就不得赦免。
Although repentance is not to be relied on as any payment of the penalty for sins, or any cause of the pardon of sin (e) (which is God’s act of free grace in Christ (f); yet repentance is so necessary for all sinners, that no one may expect pardon without it (g).
四、沒有一個罪會太小，以致不必被定罪﹔ 照樣，也沒有一個罪會太大，能使真心悔改的人仍然沉淪。
No sin is so small that it does not deserve damnation (h). Nor is any sin so great that it can bring damnation upon those who truly repent (i).
五、人不應該滿足於籠統的悔改﹔每個人都有責任竭力為自己某項特別的罪認真悔改。
No one should be satisfied with a general repentance; rather, it is everyone’s duty to endeavor to repent of each particular sin, particularly (k).
六、每個人都應該 私自向上帝認罪，祈求赦免 ，並且 離棄罪惡；只要他一 認罪 ，就必蒙憐恤了﹔ 所以得罪弟兄或基督教會的人，應該願意私下認罪，或公開認罪，為罪憂傷，藉此向那被他干犯的人表明悔改﹔ 那被干犯者就應當與他和好，以愛心接納他。
It is the duty of each one to make private confession of his sins to God, praying for pardon (l) (and whoever confesses his sins, prays for forgiveness, and forsakes those sins shall find mercy (m)). Similarly, anyone who has scandalized a brother, or the church of Christ, ought to be willing by private or public confession, and sorrow for his sin, to declare his repentance to those that are offended (n), who are then to be reconciled to him and receive him in love (o).
