Except you repent, you will all likewise perish. - Luke 13:5
It is indifference that leaves people alone and allows them to go their own way. It is love, tender love, that warns them and raises the cry of alarm. The cry of “Fire! Fire!” at midnight might sometimes rudely, harshly, and unpleasantly startle a person out of his sleep, but who would complain if that cry was the means of saving his life? The words Except you repent, you will all likewise perish might at first seem stern and severe, but they are words of love, and they could be the means of delivering precious souls from hell.
1. The nature of repentance: What is it?
2. The necessity of repentance: Why is repentance needful?

Thank you Jesus. I cannot understand why You love me. But I bow at your feet and worship.
For me .

Everyone, please listen to this at least 16,000 times until it sinks completely into your soul!
However long it takes until the truth sinks in, for sure. And we could wish 16,000 people listened to it at least once every day.
@@jeremiahzeiset Amen! Powerful!
What a blessing, that we can still learn from these Gods generals after many years!
Repentance is the rope that pulls the sinner out of Hell.
Forgiveness is the loving Savior holding on to the end of that rope🙏
This is a great explanation of repentance and actually it is the best I have ever heard, even though I have been "in church" for decades. The subject is clearly and simply explained. I purchased the book. In fact I purchased about 10 copies to distribute to "church people" I know (friends and family). This is what I will distribute for "gifts" going forward. No card or gift can provide an explanation of eternal life the way this sermon can. I just wanted to add, I am continuously reading the book and applying it to my life. Repentance towards God and faith towards Jesus Christ IS the message for this hour. Thank you for releasing the copy of the sermon.
Thank you, very glad you found this book and are able to give copies to others too. The Lord is good to let us work in His vineyard - thank you for what you are doing for Him!
Thank you Lord for another day to Repent. Thank you for your Love
Amen, thank you Lord.
For by grace our you saved through faith and not of works lest any man should boast
"Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death." II Corinthians 7:10 AND "Do you take lightly the kindness, tolerance and patience of God, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance." Romans 2:4 . First, comes a "godly sorrow" which is a deep remorse in that we have treated a holy God in ways that this God doesn't deserve to be treated . . . and that pierces our heart to the core. Secondly, it is (that is repentance) a gift of God and is a daily spiritual disciple that true believers should take part in. Therefore, let's not take God's goodness lightly or else we may become hardened and forget, forget, forget . . . where each breath we take comes from. Honor and praise to our Creator God forevermore !!!
Amen, honor and praise to the Lord forever!
Hello, my name is Laura and I'm 15, I want to be saved, I want to repent but I don't have Godly sorrow over my sins that produces repentance and I'm just stuck, I feel empty and I worry about it, I need help I don't know what to do, I want to truly repent and be truly converted but my heart is hardened to my sins that I have no sorrow over it, or sometimes I don't recognize my sins, but lately my heart is feeling cold towards God but part of me doesn't want to be like this. I want to be truly saved but I don't have godly sorrow. I do want to be born again but I am stuck.
@@GMan7418 Hello Laura, I've just listen to this book and was moved by the Holy Spirit to reply to you.
Tell God all of your cares, problems, doubts, stresses and your sins.
God knows and loves you, you won't be telling Him anything He didn't know already, however, by telling Him you show trust and belief however small in Him who is greater than all.
God loves you with an everlasting Love, His desire is for you to be His child and receive His gift of a home in Heaven.
Jesus has made that possible with His sacrifice on the Cross.
If you're struggling to pray or don't know how, look in your bible or go online if you don't have one and go to Matthew 6:9 to13 and then pour out to Him all that is troubling you. Ask Jesus to do for you , what you cannot do for yourself, He loves you so much Laura.
Read Matthew 11:29 to 30.
Ask the Holy Spirit to help you to trust and believe in God, our Father and His loving son Jesus. To know and believe that He will set you free from your sins.
Each day talk to God in prayer, ask for His guidance , help in navigating your day to day life, especially the negatives in it and He will help you.
I will pray for you, may God pour out His love upon you, may you see and feel His mighty hand in your life. My your heart be warmed and changed by His Word, The Bible. I pray for God to use you for His honour and glory, to lead others to His son Jesus. May He bless and keep you under His wing of protection and keep you faithful to Him, please God hear my prayer, in the wonderful name of Jesus Christ, Amen. 🙏🏾🤗
Thank you so much for making these books available in this format. Love JC Ryle, look forward to meeting him in heaven one day soon.

Big up Aniko Press for what you are doing. Old book gems of folks who were committed and consistent in service to our Lord Jesus Christ, our Champion. May our good God richly bless you all and colleagues
Thank you, Percy. May the Lord be praised, He is good.
This is the 1st time I shall listen to this particular study by R.C.Ryle.
I Have been listening to his expository notes on the Gospels, The Gospel of John in particular. I’m captivated by his lucid and articulate mentality,. Above all, by his sincere admiration and love of The Gospels.
Shalom.
Thank you father thank you Lord Jesus thank you Holy Spirit in Jesus name amen
l'm at 14 minutes, and Ryle has just described _EXACTLY_ what happened to me ....to the letter!!! First time in my life! THANK YOU JESUS! :D
Amen, praises to the Lord!
Praise the Lord! 🙌🏻
Bless you Jesus i repent for the idolatry of my grandma and grandpa in my life
I have listened to this dozens of times and it still impacts me every time! I can’t get over the richness and profound simplicity of the gospel rightly divided for our edification. Thank you
You are very welcome, Bernie. We're glad this book is a blessing to you. All praise is to the Lord.
Thank you Lord.
Amen, thank you Lord!
Yes Praise God for all Truth and for all His wonderful Love and Amazing mercy. Thanks be to the Lord Almighty Jesus Christ the Redeemer of souls. We give you Lord Almighty Jesus all the praise and glory. Amen! Maranatha!
I have been working on translating J.C.Ryle teachings in Romanian language , specially this video. I have been preaching in Gipssies Churches here in Romania, I notice that a lots of Christians here in our churches are being touch deeply by the message of repentance. I pray to God to bring a revivial in our Churches. Thank you for posting. God bless
Alexandru, it's great to hear that you are translating Ryle's books into Romania. If you need any help from us with printing or distribution, please let me know.
@Grigorescu Alexandru I'm sorry, I may not have been clear. I was simply saying if, after you translated J.C. Ryle's books, that we'd be interested in doing what we can to help distribute them. As it is, we don't have any Romanian language books or tracts.
Thanks,
Jeremiah
Such a very God given word in a Holy Spirit deliverance! Thank you Jesus Christ for this very needed message!🙏🩸✝️🙏
Great sermon!!! Thank you so much!!! I have been so lost to get to truly repent of all the sins I have committed. Satan is a foe who will leads me to believe I am ok!!! Jesus is TRUTH!!!
Amen!
Very Good I see 52 who gave thumbs down dont like the ideal they need to repent over their sin and stop doing it.
Thank God for the true doctrine of repentance and necessity of repentance. Thanking for His mercies and graces up on me for the eternal fellowship and salvation of God. Thanks to Br. J. C. Ryle for the truths recorded and Aneko press for bringing them to light in this dark internet world.
You are very welcome, Santosh. The Lord is so very good to us.
Repentance comes as a consequence of hearing about the goodness of God (Rom 2:4). So if you want people to repent, tell them how good God is. Preach the good news: God loves you, he died for you and he offers you his righteousness. Do you believe it?
God’s power for salvation - for your forgiveness, healing, deliverance and provision - is revealed in the good news of grace. Do you believe it?
All the blessings of God come to us by grace alone. Do you believe it?
Faith and repentance are two sides of the same coin. Repentance, like faith, is a positive response to something God has said or done.
John says little about repentance but he talks about believing over and over. He wrote so “that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name” (John 20:31). The key to life is not in turning from sin but trusting in Jesus.
You want others to repent? Then preach the gospel that reveals the goodness of God. Use words if necessary.
Jesus has done it all!
“He labours however feebly to
lead a new life” ...,
Amen!!
Amen and Amen.
Love Aneko books!!
Thank you - may the Lord be praised!
Amen and Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus Christ!
Hallelujah praise the lord God bless you .
Amen, praises to the Lord!

Wow! What a wonderful book!
We must repent everyday!!
Superb book!
Very glad to hear you enjoyed this book. May the Lord be praised!
Be baptised in Jesus Name.i asked to repent thunder lightening came from heaven.
Many claim the law was done away with, but the truth of the matter is it is impossible to repent if you don’t know the law and commandments, you must understand first what qualifies as sin in Gods eyes and only then can you repent of your sins and remember…. Keep the Sabbath Holy it’s a commandment.
Are you a Seventh-Day Adventist? I am, you sound like you might be.
@@christybiondo I don’t believe denominations will do anything for you, Jesus saves denominations don’t save.
As I am sure you are aware Keeping the commandments of God is a must with the testimony of Jesus Christ but this is what We must go by…..
Matthew 19: 17 Keep the Commandments.
John 14:15 Keep my Commandments.
John 14:21 He that hath my Commandments.
John 15:10 Keep my Commandments.
1 Corinthians 7:19 Keeping the Commandments of God.
1 John 2:3 We know him if we keep his Commandments.
1 John 2:4 If you don't keep his Commandments you are a liar.
1 John 3:22 Keep his commandments.
1 John 3:24 He that Keep his commandments.
1 John 5:2 Love Gods children and Keep his Commandments.
1 John 5:3 The love of God is that we keep his Commandments.
Revelation 12:17 Keep Gods Commandments and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Revelation 14:12 Keep the Commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
and the last Page of the Bible Revelation 22:14 ....DO HIS COMMANDMENTS.
@@christybiondo Shabbat Shalom👍🏻
Thank you so much for this!
when you head toward the light of jesus that automaticaly puts your back to the darkness of sin
A very edifying book.
Thank you for your comment. All praises to the Lord.
Beautiful
Thank you for your comment, very glad to hear this book was meaningful to you. May the Lord Jesus Christ be praised.
Great
Thank you for this video. I want to help everyone I know to repentance. It’s so obvious, and it blows my mind that many people ignored their sin into the grave for the last 2,000 years.
You're very welcome, J.J. It's a privilege to be able to distribute these books.
@Robert You Sir, will never wake up until you repent and turn your attention to the Lord your God.
@Robert it's worse than just not giving your heart to Jesus. It's about rejecting the Lord, and not worshipping your creator.
@Robert Unfortunately, you haven’t moved spiritually, yet. The only thing you’re passing by is the Sun...
@Robert I'm interested in knowing how you were seeking God as a child and/or when you were older too. When I was a child, there was a lot I didn't understand. As I read the Bible and pray, things are becoming clearer and clearer, as I ask God to teach me and truly want to know the truth.
Thank you and may God richly bless you 🙏
You are very welcome, Lucy. May the Lord be praised!

How many sins can you remember all of them Salvation is a gift of God not works least any man should boost
@@craiglilyspeer8971 This book doesn't actually promote _confession_ as a means of salvation, and certainly doesn't teach that you need to confess every sin. But _repentance_ is biblical. Confession may be biblical too, but if you listen to the book, you'll notice it's about _repentance_ Jesus is the one who said we must repent.
@@craiglilyspeer8971
No one is arguing that. Yeshua also tell us to continually repent. Rather once saved always saved is true or not, if we all did what we were supposed to No one would even have to stress over it.
There's a few things that are listed in the New Testament:
1. Accept Yeshua as your Savior
2. Love Yeshua
3. Love your neighbor
4. turn from sin
5. not be of this world
6. continually repent
Yeshua literally set a foundation and people are still confused..
@@isheephearhim2609 the Bible does talk about confessing sin, quite a bit. I would be worried about telling others that it does not say that, when it actually does, in so many words.
Repent is turning back to God, if my people. Who are called by my name.
Please Jesus Help Amen 🙏
Jeremiah no one downplayed the audio book I listened I read comments I enjoy both thank you sir
Ok, glad to hear your thoughts. Someone had not liked the idea of repentance, and I was responding to them...

You're very welcome, Simone! Amen, may we be rich in the things of God. His riches are so much sweeter than anything our flesh can dream up. May the Lord be praised.
Sin comes from the heart. Wow.

Its also good to read the Present with Religion, a book available for free on the internet.The book is about the truth of life and it shows the full picture of life for the first time so that you may stop being deceived by the world and be able to follow the steps of Jesus and other prophets to Heaven.Knowing the whole truth of life is the key factor in our salvation.We must know the real truth, all of it and live in it and change ourselves according to it in order to be saved.There is no other way to our salvation.With the knowledge of the truth there comes true repentance which means changinf our minds and also true obediance to God' s law and finally our santificatiin which is a lifelong process.And God in His mercy will give us His wonderful grace which is the time and ability to make the proper change.Only in this way will we be able to attain our eternal salvation.Our task is to find this narrow gate that leads to God and do it quickly and stay on it till the end no matter what.Then and only then we will be saved.There is nothing more important or serious to do in this fallen world as our eternal fate depends on it.
That book endorses evolution. We did not evolve, we were created. The theory of evolution cannot be proven because it didn’t happen.
That book endorses “collective consciousness”-new age beliefs that we are all divine and just need to “tap into” that divinity.
Please do not recommend such readings on a Christian thread!
We need to use discernment in these times.
Father please send your Holy Spirit to convict without the Holy Spirit drawing one to himself it’s impossible to come to repentance! 🙏🩸✝️🙏
Thanks for sharing this book. I was going to download for kindle and it says $2.99 and preorder. Will this be free later? Thanks
You're very welcome. The eBook should be free of charge soon after it is released. Please check back soon.
Wow 1hr 20 mins to explain repentance?
I'll explain in 3 words REPENTANCE MEANS TO "CHANGE YOUR MIND". ITS THAT SIMPLE!!!
Given how much Jesus talked about repentance, and the importance he placed on it, it hardly seems 1 hr and 20 min is enough. "No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish." (Luke 13:3)
Many have changed their mind but were unable to change their ways or their heart. Obey The Gospel as Peter spoke about in Acts 2:38...we must live as did Paul "crucified with Christ". The good news is that it is now revealed to us that we no longer have to obey the world, the flesh nor the devil. Receive ye The Holy Ghost as Peter and Paul preached in Ths Book of Acts!!!
You sir are dead wrong. And by dead wrong, I’d like to put an emphasis on dead. Repentance is not in the mind. If you are unable to testify of the type of repentance spoken about here, be concerned, because without repentance there is no forgiveness of sin.
Repentance is turning back to God, “turning from” the world/satans kingdom, to God/the kingdom of light.
Every person who has truly repented knows this, as when you do this His Holy Spirit comes to reside inside you and transforms your life from the inside out. He changes our desires and causes us to hate sin and desire righteousness.
Peace to you.
Repentance has nothing to do with salvation. Read your Bibles again.
But i don’t think we always keep laboring under sin, i think we break out and begin to walk in victory, walking in the Spirit…
I repentance for formisl spirit and wizards Leviticus 19.31
Hosea 10:12
Sow for yourselves righteousness; reap steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the Lord, that he may come and rain righteousness upon you.
Jeremiah 4:3
For thus says the Lord to the men of Judah and Jerusalem: “Break up your fallow ground, and sow not among thorns.
Hebrews 6:7-8
For land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned.
Jeremiah 7:23
But this command I gave them: ‘Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. And walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’ But they did not obey or incline their ear, but walked in their own counsels and the stubbornness of their evil hearts, and went backward and not forward.
Jeremiah 8:5
Why then has this people turned away in perpetual backsliding? They hold fast to deceit; they refuse to return.
Jeremiah 9:6
Heaping oppression upon oppression, and deceit upon deceit, they refuse to know me, declares the Lord.
John 3:19
And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed.
Ephesians 5:11
Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible,
Jeremiah 23:24
Can a man hide himself in secret places so that I cannot see him? declares the Lord. Do I not fill heaven and earth? declares the Lord.
Proverbs 15:3
The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.
Psalm 90:8
You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence.
James 1:23-25
For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.
Luke 11:28
But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
Luke 8:21
But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
John 13:17
If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.
Matthew 7:24-25
“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.
James 4:17
So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.
John 15:22
If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have been guilty of sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.
Acts 17:30
The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent,
Luke 24:47
and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 🙏🏼
Amen

is CHANGED
I want to be very clear. Repentance is only a change in how you feel about sin; not actively turning from sin. Jonah 3:10 says God views turning from sin as a work. If you believe actively turning from sin is required you believe in works salvation. Furthermore, several times throughout the New Testament we're told that belief is how we get saved so repentance has to be something that can happen when we believe.
Why would you tell people not to actively turn from their sin? Do you think God will propel you to away from sin? Flee from temptation, turn from your evil ways, beat your body into submission. Those are all biblical, lawful commands. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and _strength._
@@jeremiahzeiset people are mislead, people pull away from God because they think they need a level of perfection. Although they do not admit that they want to work their way into heaven they act like it an seem to believe it not knowing. Repentance is to change ones mind, so change your mind and believe the gospel.... Works are not required for salvation, neither before or after.. and works dont come naturally after salvation its a choice that one must make. Once again people are mislead by a worked based doctrine. Fellowship or being a disciple and being saved are two different things. All disciples are saved, but all of the saved are not disciples.
@@jeremiahzeiset yes you should get rid of your sins, but many think its for salvation when its not
@@ImJsB1 I just don't understand statement "repentance is not turning from your sin." Once I come to grips with the fact that I am a sinner, destitute, and far from our holy God, it seems to me that once I see the Lord for who he is, I will detest my sinful ways. Will I truly on Christ for help? Yes, more than ever. But, I will cut off my arm, so to speak, if needed, as Jesus said, to avoid sinning.
@@jeremiahzeisethi. Repentance is a resolve, a firm decision, a mindset, to follow Jesus. It is not a work. It is a decision to follow Jesus. You ‘make up your mind’ to follow Jesus. Faith and repentance are two sides of the same coin. Our ‘turning from sin’, then, is a fruit of that repentance. ”Faith without works is dead”. If you’d like, I can supply all the supporting Bible verses, and others. It’s 5:30 AM, looking at some videos, and unfortunately the book, chapter, verses escape me at the moment. Thank you. Have a blessed day.
If J.C. Ryle were to come back and see the dismal state of the Church of England today, he might have become a strict psalm singing Presbyterian. Liberalism destroys every thing it touches.
I have also a problem, that i don't fell my lostness, no godly sorror
Dear M G. I don't know how much emphasis I'd put on feelings. While it's true that "Godly sorrow leads to repentance," that's not necessarily the entire context. We're not told that we must feel sorrowful, but that we must repent. We're not told that we must feel a certain way, but that we must "deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Christ." We're not told to say certain words, but we're told to believe in Christ.
Hopefully this helps. I do think a natural reaction is for us to feel sorry for our sins, but if you don't have that, take what you can and turn to Christ anyway. You can still confess your sins.
@@jeremiahzeiset I know, that i am not born again, my heart is cold toward god and other christians. I also dont have saving faith, so unbelieve.
@@MG-hg1sq I appreciate your honesty. I think we must be honest about how destitute we are, even to the point of not feeling anything towards the Lord. But you know your need, and I think that is enough. I was very similar, doing what I wanted to do, and not feeling sorrowful for sins. It wasn't until I told the Lord I was willing to be made willing to live for him that things began to change. Take a simple step of faith towards the Lord, confess your lack of feeling, and ask Him to work in your heart and life. He knows best what you need, and it is he who takes away hearts of stone and gives hearts of flesh (Ezekiel 36:26)
Also, please know that the Lord is very good. He rewards those who diligently seek him. There is some pleasure in sin for a season, but having a heart filled with love is so much better. I think this can be yours, but you must go to the Lord yourself, and if you don't receive what you seek right away, keep seeking, but only from the Lord, not any other spirits, or even from angels. Be like the woman who wanted her daughter to be healed by Jesus, don't give up. I'm confident you will find what you need, if you seek it from Him.
@@jeremiahzeiset Thanks for the reply, to admit, i am also a bit kind of worried/uncomfortable/weird about it(Because its a kind of uncertain thing in my imaginations, how it would be as an christian, but that is, what i want and it's the most important to getting save) and i don't know why, i think that i wouldn't hold a thing back, as example that i gave up before 3 month to get a gameDeveloper, which was a kind of dream, but i am comfortable this conflicted with this dream/hobby is over, because i also recognized clearly that i didn't know the lord and weren't born again and this also would be a idol.
@@MG-hg1sq Hmmm., if you were convicted in your conscience to not become a game developer because it would be an idol to you, I think that is evidence that you are not totally cold and indifferent towards the Lord. What is it like being a Christian? Well, we are blessed, but sometimes also challenged (the Lord disciplines those he loves). But most of all, it is right. As God, He deserves to be worshipped by us. It is only the right thing to do. I'm a Christian more because it is the right thing than I am for the benefits, great as they are.
Here is an audiobook I'd recommend listening to. I think it'll help you a lot. ua-cam.com/video/JiZTZpt5a5Q/v-deo.html&ab_channel=AnekoPress
Can't play it.
Sorry that it's not working for you. Can you tell us a little bit of what is happening so hopefully we can identify the issue?
@@Anekopress I am extremely sorry, it was my phone , now, I can listen, and thanks alot for all this audio books I listen every day and it's a blessing for me
@@somihmar6404 Ok, very glad it works now. Glad this audiobook is a blessing to you - may the Lord be praised!
J.C. rather. It’s 2am.
HELP PLEASE PRAY. help please pray please pray
I need this
We've been praying for you, Doyle. The Lord makes it clear that if we draw near to him, he'll draw near to us (James 4:8). There is hope for all who are willing to deny themselves and follow Christ.
@@Anekopress Please for the stronghold's that in my mind.
@@louiswall6409 Faith and genuine love for God will help you overcome, if you don't grow weary in well-doing. I don't know if anything helps more than love for God, and that cultivated by spending time with Him, and serving Him as you are able. I am confident that the Lord is more than willing and able to walk with you, and help you, and deliver you. Keep up the good fight.
There is a curious little lie told to Christians. It might come at the beginning or sometime after but there it will be and it took little time for it to be told in this book. I would say to every Christian if you are a Christian to remember that you are not a Buddhist. Their salvation it to become a person free of all temptations. To be a free son of Adam, but ours is to become a child no longer of Adam at all but of God.
The steps on this journey if it is taken at all may wonder true, but they are also always taken in order.
First to believe. It makes no real difference how one comes to this belief. It might be by considering the stars or seeing the design all around, it might be because of science, understanding that all things at one point were not, and then they were. It might be the love of a child but regardless of how, a firm conviction must come about that God has to be real….
At this point what normally happens is this person will begin seeking answers; then turn to the place they feel has them, the people they feel have them, a church. That’s where most of it goes wrong…..
I have heard a few men preach truth but very few…..So the new Adamic seeker listens week after week doing all he can do in becoming a first rate Buddhism because that is his best self possible? You might hear it called Lordship salvation; and think that sound so right how could it not be? but then bad lies the ones that dont sound so right do work very long and this one has been around a long time. Confident that in this effort, he is proving his faith to God, himself, and those around him? He looks no further?
No its not works to be saved its works because he already has been???
This is a lie……
While its going on he is going to hear about repentance and ya why else would he be here its happened, he hates the sinner he is and is proving that by working as hard as he can to change…..yes he is still sinning, but just as the Buddhist is told, well it takes time, so to is he that we will always sin but just keep doing what you are, God will meet you at the point you get to ….if that is you get far enough? How very Muslim?
Believe, repent, gain the gift of faith, receive baptism in the Spirit, that is the journey. That is Christianity!
Simple enough, but how, where, why, what, are all these to begin with?
At some point all your efforts are going to fail you, after all Adam is the problem. We are being saved from what we are, clearly the what we are is not going to be helpful in that?
The single greatest truth about Adam is that Adam wants to run the show….Adam wants to drive the bus….Adan wants to be in control, have the power, be god. To repent is to concluded that can never work. Not even a little bit, and turn to God for something that will.
If you get to step three, you’re going to need God; and what you really have at this point is not God it's a belief, a concept born of scripture, logic, proof, all good stuff, but it still boils down to knowing about Him, and what you need is to know Him….. So you seek Him
I mean you look for Him like you would your own lost child, with a determined desperate purpose.
Scripture says if you do He will be found…..
Romans 10 17 says ἄρα ἡ πίστις ἐξ ἀκοῆς, ἡ δὲ ἀκοὴ διὰ ῥήματος Χριστοῦ.
The translation in most bibles reads So faith from hearing - and hearing through (the) word of Christ
That’s probably why most pastors encourage you to read scripture…ask them yourself. Will reading scripture build my faith? If I don’t think I have faith will I get it reading the Word of God?
I think the answer you get is going to be YES, YES, YES….. But that’s the problem That’s why I included the Greek; that is not what Paul is saying…….
Paul said ῥήματος (rhēmatos) that’s the term second from right to left Paul used in this passage, where he is instruction the church where faith comes from?
He could have said λόγος (logos). Both are translated (word) in English, but they are not the same thing in Greek. The Bible is the λόγος (logos), What you hear preached at a service I hope is the λόγος (logos). But the only way to receive the gift of faith from God is by ῥήματος (rhēmatos).
This is literally to Hear Gods voice, to hear Him speak, to personally encounter Him….This changes a belief into something much more, it changes knowing about Him, into knowing Him.
I encourage you to look up this passage in Greek yourself and to translate the term you find there to know if what I'm saying is true?
So you believed, and that brought you to repentance, that caused you to seek, seeking you found; at this point you have faith. That is very likely enough to bring you into His kingdom. We are told he gave all those the power to become children of God. Even at this point you can still turn away; however, I think it quite unlikely. Yet sin is still a constant problem. The only way to begin to have victory over sin is to walk in the Spirit, also understood to be a baptism in the Spirit. To receive power from God to see truth, to love, to demonstrate wisdom to become a peace maker. Not as a new and improved child of Adam but as a child of God.
That’s it, the four steps of the longest Journey any of us ever take, and too few do….
27 thumbs down combo of scoffers, and lukewarm who do not wish to repent of sin. Pick up our cross, and serve the Lord not Satan that's the whole reason Jesus is soon to come for his chosen, and Judgement to a world of unbelievers who turned from Jesus, and his salvation offered to all here.
Please pray for me I can’t repent
Praying for you, friend. Don't give up until you find forgiveness and peace with Christ.
@@jeremiahzeiset I’m trying not to but my heart is so hard because of my continual sin I can’t even feel remorse for my sin anymore I just want God to save me
@@aerosmith2233 I have no way of knowing the extent of your sin or the bondage that you are in, but in my own experience, I found that the Lord is powerful and stronger than the enemy and my flesh. I also know that the situation with sin is desperate enough, that we have to do whatever necessary in order to remove ourself from it. That's what Jesus even said to cut off our hand if needed (Matthew 5:30). Not that I'm advising you to cut off your hand, but theoretically removing yourself from whatever it is it is causing you to sin. It is imperative, and so much is at stake, that we have to overcome. And with Christ, all things are possible. The bondage that sin has over us is not as strong as it would like us to think it is.
We go to Jesus by faith and we overcome by faith. By faith, you can overcome sin and you must come to Jesus for remission of sins, by faith.
@@jeremiahzeiset what does it mean to come to him? I keep hearing people say that but I don’t understand it
@@aerosmith2233 Well, for me it was, and is, in prayer. I confessed to the Lord that I was a sinner, told Him I didn't even want to change, but that I was willing for Him to change me, and asked Him to do so. Spend as much time in prayer as is needed. If you are looking to connect with an individual, you'd go to great lengths to get to know that person. Do the same with Christ. Learn about Him, from scripture and books like these, and pray.
(every day i find my self a sinner )if you have repented you can't be a sinner every day, because Christ died to take away our sins and in him is no sin ? most of this audio book was worth listening to, just disappointed in the last five minutes. remember every book must be filtered and examined through the Word of God which is the final authority on doctrine.
This also is in the Bible: _If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness._
We may be criticized for this, but I believe all of the Bible is true. Some people may only take part of the Bible, but I will take all of it in as much as I am able.
What if the holy spirit tells you to repent but didn't.
My initial thoughts on this are that the command to repent doesn't go away. Maybe a person is convicted to repent, but they don't right away, but later they do. Well, that is better than not obeying at all, isn't it? _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._ (Matt. 21:28-31)
@@jeremiahzeiset brother I rejected my salvation and I have no desire to be saved cold I have desire to be saved?
I was Given by Grace of God to repent but I rejected it. What would I do now?
@@ShamasAli-ff5yz Are you sure you have no desire to be saved? You are asking questions I don't think you'd be asking if you were entirely cold. But it's not your desire that saves you, but Jesus. Looking to Him is what saves us, not our feelings, desires, etc. obey Him and trust Him...
But I blasphemed the holy spirit for almost 28 years and my heart was so hard.
God repented more than anyone in the Bible it does not mean repent of sins it means a change of mind to believe on Jesus Christ for savation sin is not the problem Jesus payed for our sin the problem is unbelive For God so love the world that he gave his only begotting son who soever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life
God repented more than anyone? Sin isn't problem? Repentance doesn't involve repenting of sin? I guess you didn't actually listen to this audiobook, and even more important, you didn't study the Bible to see what the Lord has to say about these things.
@@jeremiahzeiset you don' at understand repentance it's not being sorry for your sins like the book says and turn to Jesus we turn to Jesus to be forgiven through his blood that's the only way to be saved not living
@@edwardegamino3420 I've read the book, and it doesn't have the emphasis that you think it has. You should listen to it. But, I, more than the book, am saying that you can't say that repentance isn't about repenting of sin, if scripture says it is. Do you think you know better than the Bible? "Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out." (Acts 3:19); "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:19), and etc. The problem today is that people think they know better than scripture. That bothers me.
What, you are crazy! God hates sin.
The ignorance is real, God's repentance wasn't of sin. He repented from destroying humans, because they would repent. Hello, John the Baptist whole ministry was of repentance, read your Bible instead of copying other ignorance.
CCOMPLETELY WRONG TEACHING. REPENTANCE OF SIN IS THIS ONE PREACHES. JESUS SAID REPENDANCE FROM OLD WAYS TOWARDS KINGDOM OF GOD. CONFESSION OF SIN IS ONLY ONCE IN THE WHOLE BIBLE. IN 1JOHN 1BUT THE WHOLE CHRISTIANITY IS HUNG UP ON THIS ONEVERSE WHICH HAS NO PAIR! THE WORD REPENDANCE HAS GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH CONFESSING SINS AT ALL. THEN WHY JESUS MUST DIE?
The book talks about forsaking sin, which is our old way of life.
Repentance of what ? And become hypocrite...
Ahh, but that's where you are mistaken. Genuine repentance doesn't allow for hypocrisy. Listen to the audiobook video and you'll see what it actually means to follow Christ.
Repentance of your carnal mind my friend, that means to stop thinking the way you’ve always done and start thinking according to what the Bible says, otherwise you will perish forever in Hell, but you don’t have to do that, if you truly repent and come to Christ for the washing of your sins and after that keep on coming to Christ all the days of your life by believing His Word and Loving Hin Servíng Him and Obeying His Hoky Word then and only until then you will see heaven. Sorry to disappoint you but this is the way of God, far from ours.
Repentance means to insult the creator because he made us and not ourselves, period.
@@lewis76ad What? We have all sinned, and need to confess that and turn to Christ, our only Lord and savior.
@@jeremiahzeiset to confess you have become a hypocrite, please.
Useless definition of repentance.
Totally agree 👍
@tristdrums Also agree! Metanoia means 'change of mind'. Even the word, repentance, comes from the Latin which the Catholics implemented in the dark ages. They deceptively translated it as "do penance" (repentance).
Oh but ye only no not what sin is sin be deceived hash like Idiots, and find the true root of your manifests
@@brianhurt3801 Uhm... what?
@tristdrums keep up the good work ignorant Christian
