Keep up the good work!
Luke 13:3-5 "I tell you, no, but
unless you
repent, you will all likewise perish. "Or do
you suppose that those eighteen on whom the tower in
Siloam fell and killed them, were worse culprits
than all the men who live in Jerusalem? "I tell you,
no, but
unless you repent, you will all likewise perish."
(NAS)
The word "repent" means a change of heart and
mind that leads to a change in behavior or action.
Consider the example given in Matthew 21:28-31:
"But what think ye? A certain
man had two sons; and he came to the first, and
said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard. He
answered and said, I will not: but afterward he
repented, and went. And he came to the second, and
said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir:
and went not. Whether of them twain did the will of
his father? They say unto him, The first. ...."
Matthew 21:28-31 (KJV)
The first son refused at first, but he regretted
what he had done; a regret that led him to doing his
father's will.
What do you think about Jesus wanting us to change
our hearts and actions to become His disciples?
