Repentance - 9781726491785

Repentance is one of the most misunderstood concepts in our Christian vocabulary. Divisions and denominations have developed over the understanding of repentance. Repentance is the decisive act to turn from a life that is headed for destruction in order to head in a direction of true life as found in and through Jesus Christ. Repentance is the pursuit of eternal life. John the Baptist, Jesus, Peter, Paul, James and John all proclaimed and taught about repentance. Repentance is an overall theme of the Bible. From the day that Eve was deceived by the devil, we have been lost, trying to find life, but never truly achieving it. God has been calling us back ever since. He has been yearning for us to change the direction of our lives so that we can truly live. Repentance is the decisive act of our hearts to seek God for this true path of life and to begin to walk in it. It is not that we never sin again or instantly become perfect, but that we turn our direction from a course of death to a pursuit of life in and through God. This study searches the scriptures for a meaningful and practical understanding of what is required to repent.
