I still think the best example was the conversion of saul.
God opened His eyes up spiritualy on the road to damascus. He fasted for 3 days and was praying. I am sure during that Time he was repenting and was asking God for Forgiveness.
But even before he got to that Point. He was already Justified, because he believed in Jesus, and He showed His belief by being baptized. a few days later.
same with us God openeds our eyes as sinners, we come into a understanding of Jesus and we Belive/ justified and because of those beliefs, we change direction. (we have our own road of damascus) were God guides us by the hand. and with the faith we already have recieved we begin to act upon that faith.
same as the thief on the Cross, That was His road, his eyes was opened and with what faith was Given. He believed changed His ways,, condemend his sinful deeds and ask for God to remember Him.
