THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS
GOD MANIFEST IN THE FLESH.
THAT IS WHY HE IS GOD.

The compromise of the convention center church age has corrupted the minds of countless sinners from the simplicity that is in Christ Jesus. Today's average confession of salvation consists of nothing more than a show of hands; filled out visitors cards, a walk down the aisle, repeat after me prayer session, baptism or church membership. Crowd pleasing pastors, preachers, deacons, teachers, etc. have chosen the comfort of compromise over Christ, his cross, and his convictions, while sinners travel the road to Hell. This kind of “come as you are” “live how you want” philosophy continues to be promoted by sacrilegious superstars, who reject repentance. Those who reject repentance have robbed themselves of the gift of God. Do you like being robbed? I did not think so. HELL will burn you!
1. Repentance is a gift from God! Acts 5:31: Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. Acts 11: 18: When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life. 2 Timothy 2:25-26 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. HELL is Satan’s frying pan!
2. Repentance is a turning away from sin and turning to God! Ezekiel 14:6: Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Repent, and turn yourselves from your idols; and turn away your faces from all your abominations. Ezekiel 18:30-32: Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. 31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? 32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye. Acts 26:20: But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance. HELL is never ending pain!
3. Repentance is a command of God! Proverbs 1:23: Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. Zechariah 1:3: Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. Acts 17:30: And the times of this ignorance God winked at: but now commandeth all men everywhere to repent: HELL is everlasting fire!
4. Repentance is a sorrowful change of heart toward God because of sin that produces outward evidence! 2 Corinthians 7:9-11: Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing. 10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 11 For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter. Matthew 3:8: Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: HELL is scalding hot!
5. Repentance is required for salvation! Luke 13:3: I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Luke 5:31-32: And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick. 32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. Acts 3: 19: Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; Acts 20:21: Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks. repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. Have you ever repented of your sins and trusted the Lord Jesus Christ? If not, you will perish in Hell forever. Will you repent of your sins and believe on the Lord Jesus? Romans 3:23: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 6:23: For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 5:12: Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: 1 Corinthians15:3-4: For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Luke 13:5: I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Romans 10:13: For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 2 Peter 3:9: The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. God does not want to send anyone to hell, but he will if you do not repent and trust the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour. God’s message is repent or burn! If you mean what you say, ask God. HE will save you. Call out to the Lord Jesus Christ today!
