The question has been discussed: which is prior, faith or repentance? It is an unnecessary question and the insistence that one is prior to the other is futile. There is no priority. The faith that is unto salvation is a penitent faith and the repentance that is unto life is a believing repentance... It is impossible to disentangle faith and repentance. Saving faith is permeated with repentance and repentance is permeated with faith
