I agree with what you said. Most people won't be able to repent, mostly because they don't know or seek the right God and they don't know scriptures that point to a way of escape, I've written many posts and keep trying to improve the way I communicate so people can get what I'm saying in as simple language as I can.

Keep making videos, keep improving, people are hard headed as well as hard hearted people including myself will repent only when they are ready but if you can give them a truth that they can latch onto then they can latch onto more truth and God will have His way in there hearts. I sometimes willingly sin still and I know it has to stop but apparently just knowing isn't enough. I've come along way and have far to go as well.

Another thought: how many people willingly sin and ignore it to the point of not knowing it or not wanting to see that they are wrong?

We can't waste our salvation away.. because it is owned by Jesus

Repent at salvation.. then repentance after is to get closer to God.. not to gain entry to heaven.

(1Peter 1:3-5) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.


Our place in heaven.. is

reserved in advance at salvation
kept by the power of God.. by His faith
incorruptible and undefiled
by Jesus' abundant mercy

So repentance happens when we ask for salvation.. that is saving faith.. then after this we choose to follow Jesus out of what He has done for us.. this doesn't determine entrance to heaven.. but our closeness to Jesus and any rewards we may have in heaven
