Repent Or Perish!


The fundamental message of the Word of God,
And the most basic message of Christ Jesus is:
Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.” (Matthew 4:17)

The time has come,” he said. The Kingdom of God is near.
Repent and believe the good news!” (Mark 1:15)

On The Day of Pentecost the apostle Peter proclaimed:
Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the Name of Jesus Christ
So that your sins may be forgiven. (Acts 2:38)

Why must we repent? Because we are all born sinners! King David said:
Surely I have been a sinner from birth,
Sinful from the time my mother conceived me. (Psalm 51:5)

Without the shed blood of Christ Jesus there is no forgiveness
And therefore no possibility of repentance.

In fact, the Law requires that nearly every thing be cleansed with blood, 
And without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
(Hebrews 9:22)

The only reason that repentance brings forgiveness
Is that Christ Jesus was willing to shed His own blood
To purchase our forgiveness.
Only the Perfect and Precious blood of Christ Jesus is able to do this.
(Hebrews 9:11-28)

Everyone who belongs to Christ Jesus has been purchased
With the highest price that could be paid,
The Prefect and Precious blood of Christ Jesus.

Repentance means that we give up our life in this life
And receive the LIFE of Christ. Christ Jesus said:

If anyone would come after Me,
He must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it,
But whoever loses his life for Me will save it.

What good is it for a man to gain the whole world,
And yet lose of forfeit his very self?

If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words,
The Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His Glory
And in the Glory of the Father and of the Holy angels.” (Luke 9:23-26)

The blood of Christ is effective for us as long
As we remain in Covenant with Him, as long as we “Abide In Him.”
Christ Jesus said:

I AM the True Vine and My Father is the gardener.
He cuts off every branch in Me that bears no fruit,
While every branch that does bear fruit
He trims clean so that it will be even more fruitful.

You are already clean because of the Word I have spoken to you.
Remain in Me, and I will remain in you.
No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the Vine.
Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in Me.

I AM the Vine; you are the branches.
IF a man remains in Me and I in him , he will bear much fruit;
Apart from Me you can do nothing.

IF anyone does not remain in Me,
He is like a branch that is thrown into the fire and burned.

IF you remain in Me and My Words remain in you,
Ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you.
This is to My Father's Glory, that you bear much fruit,
Showing yourselves to be My disciples.

As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you.
Now remain in My love.
IF you obey My commands, you will remain in My love,
Just as I have obeyed My Father's commands and remain in His love.

I have told you this so that My joy may be complete.
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
Greater love has no one than this,
That one lay down his life for his friends.
You are My friends IF you do what I command.
I no longer call you servants,
Because a servant does not know his master's business.
Instead, I have called you friends,
For everything that I learned from My Father I have made known to you.

You did not choose Me, but I chose you to go and bear fruit—
Fruit that will last.

Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in My Name.
This is My command: Love each other. (John 15:1-17)

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
