Sorry, not sorry?

Sorry, not sorry?

Pastor Plek and Catie Sas are joined by Machine Gun Nick and Seth Sparks this week to recap Sunday’s sermon Exodus 11 & 12. In this episode we address several questions about the hardening of Pharaoh’s heart, free will, repentance and forgiveness.

Faith, culture, and everything in between.

Questions:
If you "repent" from your sin, but in your heart aren't really sorry and keep doing that one sin, does God still forgive?
Why do you continue to stress that Pharaoh hardened his own heart by witnessing the miracles instead of what the scriptures say that the Lord hardened his heart? What is wrong with God doing the hardening?
Exodus 12:23 mentions the Lord and the destroyer. Does this mean there were two spirits involved? I've always just thought of it as the Angel of Death passing through, but this made it sound different.
Does the Lord harden Pharaoh 's heart or does Pharaoh harden his own heart?  If the Lord does this, was Pharaoh never given free will? 
One line from one of our recent worship songs says "day and night, night and day, let incense rise". I'm guessing this is referring to the tabernacle incense they used to burn. However, today, incense can be associated with the new age, so sometimes I feel weird singing these lyrics. Is this line referencing a specific verse? I'm hoping to find meaning in these words when they're sung in corporate worship, while perhaps also leaning into the scriptural significance of incense.

Scripture Referenced:
Exodus 11-12, Revelation 5:8
