Repentance and faith

Testifying to Jews, and also to Greeks, repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
Acts 20:21

Repentance and faith
Do you want to get your life right with God and be saved for eternity? In order for this desire to come true, it is necessary that you repent and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. What does the Bible mean by this?

– Repentance means a change of thinking about sin, a change of our attitude. It is admitting that we are sinners and enemies of God. We have to see the evil and wrong we have done as God judges it. He hates every lie, detests every evil desire. How filthy and repulsive our transgressions are!

Repentance also means forsaking evil and becoming willing to live as it pleases God. This requires a consistent turning away from the wrong way to the living God.

– Believing in the Lord Jesus means acknowledging that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that He became man and that He laid down His life for sinners on the cross. It also means believing in His power and love, for He can and will save us. Finally, faith in the Saviour involves giving up our own attempts at salvation and trusting Him completely.

If God has made you aware of your lost condition and you desire to be saved, confess your sins to Him. Turn in faith to Jesus Christ who paid your debt on the cross and you will receive a deep and lasting peace.

Today’s reading: Malachi 2:1-17 · Mark 15:40-47

BEFORE YOU GET ANGRY

Yesterday we learnt it is not right for us to get angry with God or to take offence against Him, even if we experience the deferment of our hopes. The example of John the Baptist who earlier acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah, but later doubted Him because of his painful experience of incarceration is a warning...More

Don't Lose Sight

...when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem...
Luke 2:45

We might as well face it, strife has even infiltrated our church life. It is true enough that the Church is now the Church militant. But, as such, its warfare ought to be that of dedication to revealed truth and divine...More
