You can't repent, oppress, and seek to exploit the Holy Spirit at the same time. Repentance is turning away from such self serving behavior.

Indeed, It Is Happening Again
and all for the very same reasons.
Ezekiel 14 ²³ (NLT)
"When you meet them and see their behavior, you will understand that these things are not being done to Israel without cause. I, the Sovereign LORD, have spoken!”
Ezekiel 33 (NKJV)
²⁹Then they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have made the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed."' ³⁰"As for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking about you beside the walls and in the doors of the houses; and they speak to one another, everyone saying to his brother, "Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the LORD.' ³¹So they come to you as people do, they sit before you as My people, and they hear your words, but they do not do them; for with their mouth they show much love, but their hearts pursue their own gain. ³²Indeed you are to them as a very lovely song of one who has a pleasant voice and can play well on an instrument; for they hear your words, but they do not do them. ³³And when this comes to pass--surely it will come--then they will know that a prophet has been among them."
Ecclessiastes 1:9 (NLT)
History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new.

WORD OF GOD
Thanks Be To God
*Verses 30-32 = Mockery
Though very sad to witness in my hometown, the scriptures must be fulfilled. And it is just as Solomon prophsied: "repeated time and time again, as in days past," until Christ’s return.
Note: I use red simply to highlight the scriptures. I know they're not all Jesus's words. Howbeit, being that Jesus is the Word of God; I doubt that it'll be held against me. Besides, there are far more important things, such as:Though very sad to witness in my hometown, the scriptures must be fulfilled. And it is just as Solomon prophsied: "repeated time and time again, as in days past," until Christ’s return.
REPENTANCE, for the forgiveness of sin.
