??? Need true repentance! ???
A person may have returned from bad habits that ruin his life. But that too indicates that he is trying to save his life on this Earth. The legal warning on cigarette packs reads, "Smoking is injurious to health." That’s why some people do not smoke! For the same reason, people may not drink or gamble! Many people today do not engage in prostitution, for the fear of contracting "AIDS"!! But, the Bible clearly and systematically says, none of these people "truly not repented from their sin!!"We were created to live for the glory of God. Without realising this, if we live for our own comforts and self-pride, we are not truly got the repentance and not got the salvation! That is why, Jesus died to redeem us from this sinful way of life (2 Cor. 5:15). For example, if anyone wants to be a great man who is to be respected by others in the church or expecting others to honour him.... there is no doubt, he is living for himself. He could have "whitewashed" himself in some "religious matters." But basically he has no transformation! He may also have spoken Christian languages such as "born again" and "baptism". But his inner personality remains the same.True repentance is leaving something that God dislikes, leaving his own way, coming to God and to follow God's way!Prayer:Heavenly Father! Thank you for knowing the way of life for us, as the 'sinful way' and we thank you for leading us to repent of it! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.Author : Brother Zac Poonen
