I have many areas to improve because of repentance. I saw that I was a despicable wretch in need of a savior who wanted forgiveness for living such a wicked, selfish life and so I repented at the foot of the cross and now I am a new creation in which I have an ongoing struggle with sin, some days I win other days I lose but because of this battle, constantly examining myself that I know that I am on the right path and everyday I ACKNOWLEDGE & CONFESS my sins to God.

Fundy do not be absurd you know i am not saying that .
Lets give a very simple illustration . I have just become a believer , i react the wrong way to some one who curses me , the holy spirit then speaks to me and says bless them that curse you , can say yes Lord forgive me and repent from that old way of reacting or choose to ignore it to my own misery.
How do you define that as continually changing ones mind ?.
It's simple basic christianity if you like
Anyway back to the more important point again . We are not saved by repentence , we are saved by faith in His Grace Ephesians 2 verse 8 .
