What does an unrepentant life look like?

Anthony Mathenia explains in this video that when someone lives an unrepentant life,  their life will be marked by immense selfishness. An unrepentant person is a person who takes advantage of and uses others in their life to promote themselves and please themselves. 

Conversely, a repentant person strives to live a life of humility and service towards others. Repentant people look to the example that Christ set for us. The second chapter of Phillippians states: "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross." There is no greater example of humility and love than the example that Jesus Christ gave us. 

Galatians 5:22-23 (NKJV) - "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law."



For someone to live a life that is unrepentant, their life will be marked by immense selfishness. So within the marriage, within the home, within the workplace, within the community, an unrepentant life will produce a person who is seeking to please themself and taking advantage and using everyone in their life in order to promote self and to please self. As a result of someone being repentant and living a life of repentance before God, they will live a life of humility, not thinking too highly of themselves, regarding others as more important than themselves, within the home, within the workplace, within the community.
