Fruit Worthy Of Repentance

Matthew 3:1-12 "Therefore bear fruit in keeping with repentance; (Matthew 3:8) The call to repent is woven throughout the tapestry of the entire Bible. Repentance does not merely begin the Christian life. According to Scripture, the Christian life is repentance from beginning to end. Regrettably, the call to repent is strangely absent in many modern churches today. The message preached is ‘God loves you’, which is true, ‘God cares for you’, which is also true, and ‘God has a plan for you’, which again is true. But, some churches are more concerned about being “seeker friendly” than biblically literate and legitimate. To proclaim the words of Jesus, “Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.” or the words of the Apostle Paul from Romans 6:23 “the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.” that is the real message of the Gospel that still needs to be preached, and still needs to be heard.
