Why Do Pentecostal Churches Lay More Emphasis ''repent'' by Christmasdon(m): 9:05pm On Jul 09, 2020 |
Why repent and go back to that sin. because thats what some of we humans do. i think we should not repent, what we should do is to repent at every minutes of our lives because human nature is SIN. we even eat and breath sin. and not telling people repent. instead lay more emphasis in accepting CHRIST JESUS. Peace! |

Christmasdon:John the Baptist called on men to repent, this was before Jesus Christ showed up on the scene, to prepare men for what is to come. After Jesus Christ showed up, He, Jesus Christ preached a New Covenant that required men to become born again to receive. So, no longer are men simply required to turn from their old ways, but to submit to a rebirth, become born again, in order to accept the New Covenant that is Jesus Christ, and the promise that is He. The new Covenant promises a life lived above the law of sin and death, a life in adherence to the perfect law that is Jesus Christ, controlled and administered, not by man's flesh and spirit but by the Spirit of the Living God Himself. Christmasdon:True, but what does it really mean to "accept" Jesus Christ? There is a cost and it is steep. Are these churches willing to lose their congregation when they begin to preach the truth of Jesus Christ to these people? |

@Pentecostals are not the only denomination to blame for even the mighty Catholic Church does not teach the truth to its people, so many remain what I call "dangling believers," with no real roots in the New Covenant that is Jesus Christ, and hence, no hope of the Kingdom of God. No one can become a follower of Jesus Christ simply by wishing for it. Jesus required that those who choose to follow Him do the work that He commands they first do. 1. Be prepared to abandon parents, brother, sister, children, spouse, in-laws, e.t.c. 2. Abandon all that you know/believe, have, and all that you are 3. Bear your own burden (not someone else's cross- not even your family's or children's)
4. Become a child again in your thinking and your actions 5. Be prepared to lose life(reputation, career, control, property, etc.)
6. Desire above all to find and enter the Kingdom of God and also walk the path of righteousness, with God as your guide every step 7. Let go of all control you have over your life and circumstances, allowing God to take care of your every need
