“Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.” (Matthew 3:8, NIV)

There is a way for a person to show oneself to be as one who has never repented (turned from that which is far from God and moved towards God). This type of person was written about by the Apostle John in 1 John 2:18-19. This (false repentance) happens to be the same reality that John the Baptist is warning against in his call to the Pharisees and Sadducees when he called them to produce fruit in keeping with repentance.
