The word "repentence " was wiped off from most bibles. The devil is not only attacking our only physical weapon that Jesus left us with, but also our Souls. Let those who have eyes see!

People ought to quit removing repentance from the Bible. The book of Revelation teaches that it is very dangerous,to add to,or take away from God's Word. And except a man repent,he shall perish.
