Repent

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son. That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. {17} For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." - SAINT JOHN 3:16-17

From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. - SAINT MATTHEW 4:17

Praise JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS GREETINGS my Friends,

     This is the day the LORD Has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it {PSALMS 118:24}.  We have been writing in this JESUS CHRIST TRUE VINE Ministries daily Blog the things that will help us as born again children of ALMIGHTY GOD, live a vibrant and Spiritually successful Christian life.  We all need correction, and open rebuke {PROVERBS 27:5}, however we also have a promise by ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD in ISAIAH 54:9, that HE will no longer be angry with us, nor rebuke us.

     Let's face it!  Our PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT of the ALMIGHTY GOD Has given us all things necessary to for life of godliness {2 PETER 1:3}.  When we tap into the deep resouvior of ALMIGHTY JESUS'S GREAT LOVE AND GRACE, we see that HE INDEED IS THE FRIEND That sticks closer than a brother {PROVERBS 18:24}.  However, before we come into the Ultimate Knowledge of our Precious LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST, we must acknowledge our transgressions before our Heavenly FATHER, thus making things right with ALMIGHTY GOD, to move onward without condemned unto victory in CHRIST JESUS.

     In today's foundational Scripture, we are taught by THE MASTER, JESUS CHRIST, to "repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand {SAINT MATTHEW 4:7}.  To repent simply means to turn from wickedness unto CHRIST JESUS {2 CHRONICLES 7:14}.  This act of contrition involves feeling sorry for, and confessing our faults to our Beloved Heavenly FATHER, JEHOVAH GOD.  When we confess our mishaps and sins, we are to rely on the Grace of ALMIGHTY GOD, in order that we would endure unbroken fellowship with our HEAVENLY FATHER, THE PRECIOUS HOLY GHOST, and HIS BELOVED only BEGOTTEN SON, JESUS our CHRIST!  Once we have repented, we must thereby, by faith, receive THE LOVE, MERCY, AND FORGIVENESS of ALMIGHTY GOD, and continue on the path of life, ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST Has so graciously Purposed for us, without guilt, shame, or condemnation.

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. - ROMANS 8:1

     Lastly, there is no way we can become Christians receiving our INHERITANCE, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, WHO essentially IS ETERNAL LIFE, unless we first repent of our past sins, coming into the flock of our Precious LORD, SAVIOR, and GOD.  We must first acknowledge that we have sinned or missed the mark, and that we are in desperate need for a Savior, to Save us and make everything right between us and ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD.  This is exactly why CHRIST JESUS HAD TO DIE ON THE CROSS AND RESURRECT {SAINT JOHN 19, SAINT JOHN 20}, in order that we'd receive the Redemption of our souls which can only be had through a vibrant relationship with JESUS CHRIST.

     So the next time you feel overwhelmed with constant sin in your life whether in thought, word, or deed, please remember, that when CHRIST JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS some 2018 years ago, RESURRECTING THE THIRD DAY, after Spending Three days and Three nights in the heart of the earth {SAINT MATTHEW 12:40}, we ultimately received the forgiveness of our total sin debt for offenses past, present, and the future.  Remember, there is no condemnation.  when our adversary the devil tries to bring up your past or attempts to throw you off track in your Christian gait (walk) remember that you are not alone.  We all go through something as Christians.  Saint Peter attests to this in the HOLY SCRIPTURES:

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: {9} Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. - 1 PETER 5:8-9

     Please never forget that GOD IS WITH us {SAINT MATTHEW 1:23}.  When we make mistakes (and we will), knowing that ALMIGHTY GOD WILL NEVER STOP LOVING US {ROMANS 8:39}, gives us great confidence in order that we may successfully tread a path of Love and Faith for those that will after us, through daily repentance of our sins unto ALMIGHTY GOD, thus showing the next generation the GREATNESS, GOODNESS, AND MERCY OF our LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST as we eagerly anticipate HIS SOON COMING Return to gather up all of us {1 THESSALONIANS 4:16-18}, HIS precious flock in order that we might forever be with Him, in JESUS'S NAME.  Amen?  Amen!


 "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen {1 JOHN 5:21}."

For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. {17} After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. {18} Therefore encourage one another with these words. - 1 THESSALONIANS 4:16-18
