Reformation generally refers to a significant change or improvement in a system, practice, or institution. It is often used in historical contexts to describe the Protestant Reformation, a religious movement in the 16th century that led to the establishment of Protestant churches and significant changes in Christian theology and practice. The movement was initiated by figures such as Martin Luther, John Calvin, and Huldrych Zwingli, who criticized the Catholic Church's practices and beliefs, ultimately leading to a schism in Western Christianity. In a broader sense, reformation can apply to any process aimed at reforming or improving societal, political, or institutional frameworks.

The concept of reformation can be viewed from multiple perspectives, and the most encompassing answer may vary depending on the context in which you're discussing reformation.
1. **In the mind**: This suggests a change in understanding or belief, which is often a critical component of reformation.
2. **In the will**: This implies a change in intent or desire, indicating a deliberate choice to reform or improve.
3. **In the heart**: This suggests a deeper emotional or spiritual transformation, often associated with motivations and values.
4. **By efforts of man**: This implies that reformation is a result of human initiative and action, suggesting that change does not occur passively but requires effort.
If we consider the Protestant Reformation, it involved changes in all these aspects—intellectual (mind), motivational (will), emotional/spiritual (heart), and practical (efforts of man). However, if you have to choose one option that most broadly captures the essence of reformation as a transformative process, **c) in the heart** may be the most fitting, as it encompasses changes in beliefs, motivations, and deeper convictions that drive the overall process of transformation. However, it's important to note that reformations often involve a combination of all these elements.

To identify which of the options describes what is "not" true repentance, we should reflect on the core elements of true repentance, which typically include a combination of a change of mind (intellectual acknowledgment), a genuine sense of sorrow for wrongdoing, and a commitment to change (often described as reformation or transformation of will).
Looking at your options:
a) **Element, intellectual, sorrow** - This option seems vague, but "intellectual" and "sorrow" could fit into the context of repentance.
b) **Mind, Reformation, sorrow** - This option includes key elements of true repentance: a change in mind, a genuine commitment to change (reformation), and sorrow for past actions.
c) **Will, penance, sorrow** - Penance often refers to acts performed to exhibit repentance, but if taken alone without the genuine change of heart or mind, it doesn't encapsulate true repentance fully. "Will" and "sorrow" can fit, but "penance" may not be necessary.
d) **Sorrow, penance, reformation** - This option mixes sorrow (which is necessary) and reformation (which is also necessary), but it includes "penance," which can be viewed as more ritualistic and may not represent true repentance if it lacks the heart change or sincerity.
Based on these interpretations, **c) Will, penance, sorrow** and **d) Sorrow, penance, reformation** are the options that include elements that can be misleading concerning "true repentance.” **Option c)** is particularly notable for emphasizing "penance" without explicitly mentioning the necessary change of heart or mind, which can sometimes be misconstrued as true repentance.
Ultimately, **c)** and **d)** are the more accurate responses to your question about which elements are not aligned with true repentance, particularly if "penance" is seen as ritualistic without deeper change.
