It is after sincere repentance that people can come to the Knowledge of the Truth. This is specifically true in the Fellowship of True Believers. If we need to repent, and especially if we know that we need to repent, we cannot come to the Knowledge of the Truth as God wants us to have it, until we come to the place of repentance first.
