The entire evangelical groove is “repentence leads to salvation”. They reach ecstasy whenever someone gives their “testimony” of how they “once were lost but now are found”. If you don’t have a dramatic “story” to tell about what a wretched sinner you were, you are of lesser value. This goes back to all the tent meetings and Billy Graham “crusades” where they called all the “sinners” to come and accept jeebus. For a good conman, they make perfect marks. They’ll love you while you screw them over and lie to them. Just have a good story to share.

Greitens is Jewish — so he may not escape political retribution. No repentance that clears away your sins.
