On repentance, David Cloud contradicts himself and the Bible on the definition of biblical repentance for salvation and has an unbiblical definition of what biblical repentance for salvation/how to be saved is.

Backloading the work of one's change of life into biblical repentance on/for salvation:

"Biblical repentance is a change of mind toward God and sin that produces a change of life by the regenerating power of God"

"There is a sense, of course, in which you can be saved and not change anything, because there is no change you can make in order to be saved, and the change that does come is by God’s regenerating power. But there is no example of salvation in the Bible without change." "It is to repent of breaking God’s law"

"(I don’t use the term “repent of your sin,” though I don’t believe it is wrong to use that term, if properly explained)"
