Why Repentance is important to our Christian walk
What is Repentance?
the act whereby one turns from his or her sin, idolatry, and creaturely rebellion and turns to God in faith
Do this through prayer; also its a lifestyle change
Repent(Hebrew)= to turn around
How to tell if someone is actually “christian” or just claims the title
Nothing we can do can gain salvation
Christ’s sacrifice cleans us from our sin now that Christ lives in us= Why repentance makes us right with God
Repentance simply turning from old ways to christ ways; we are suppose to be transformed
Importance of Repentance
Again, repentance not only praying for it, but also changing the way we live
Not for God to love us, but of our love for and wanting to please God
If we don’t change, then Christ sacrifice means nothing
How do we change?
Through the Holy Spirit
Holy Spirit- God’s spirit sent to His followers to enact change in them
Jesus was able to change the world/our fate through the spirit
Were captives of sin, but through spirit Jesus set us free
