We say that to 'give up all evil and to develop the good' is the heart of the Buddha's teaching.

Even if the water is falling right on it, it only touches the outside and not the inside. In this way the bowl will never get full.

You cannot undo your acts. If you have depraved another's will, and injured another's soul, it may be in the grace of God that hereafter you will be personally accepted, and the consequence of your guilt inwardly done away; but your penitence cannot undo the evil you have done. The forgiveness of God - the blood of Christ itself - does not undo the past.
Frederick William Robertson
