Why You Must Repent Today, Even If You Profess Jesus by ProudNigerian01: 11:04am On Dec 31, 2023 |
1John.1.8 - If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 1John.1.9 - If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Constant repentance is critical in our Christian journey and it is important we know this and act accordingly. Repentance is an act of humility before God, a way of depending on him to make us perfect as he is perfect Matt 5v48. One common trick, the accuser of the brethren often uses against God's children is making us think immediate and constant repentance isn't important. Well, it is and you must learn to adopt a lifestyle of repentance no matter how "LITTLE" your sin was. Remember pride, unforgiveness, anger leading to offence amongst others are all wins. Let us repent right now of those sins we might have committed knowingly and unknowingly, good thing you are not in the church auditorium where you are asked to come to the front so please despise your pride and shame and do this with all your heart. Say the Prayer: Father I acknowledge I have sinned, I confess all my sins, Be faithful and just to forgive in accordance with your word in Jesus name. Amen. 16 Likes 11 Shares |

The truth is that not everyone who professes Christ Jesus will make Heaven. There are many gospel ministers who masturbate, fornicate,lie compulsively,steal from the church purse, engage in homosexuality and bisexuality, lesbianism and other vices,yet they stand on the altar and preach,sing and conduct counseling sessions. There are gospel singers who live sexually immoral lives . There are also Professing Christians who pray at all,attend churches,read the Bible,yet the Devil uses their lives to do target practice. WHY? Because they have one foot in God's Kingdom and the other in the world,or they have both in God's Kingdom and look backward at the world. Or they have still the Old Man still active in their lives.The characters of the Old Man include 1.Pride 2.Arrogance 3.Anger 4.Disobedience 5.Self centredness 6.Domineering spirit 7.Rebellion 8.Controlling freak spirit 9.Spirit of criticism 10.Unforgiveness 11.Keeping malice 12.Judgementality 13.Sexual sins of any sort 14.Hypocrisy 15.Backbiting 16.Greed 17.Covetousness. 18.Love of pleasure rather than God and many more . Many men of God do possess one or more of these vices characterising the Old Man,in their lives. 5 Likes 4 Shares |

UncleKoboko: The Book of The Law (Bible) is not a story book, but a revelation. It is a spiritual guide / book to those that the Almighty God, Tru Jesus Christ has revealed himself unto. You cannot know Jehovah or the touch of His hands, unless He decides to reveal himself to you. That is why you will not understand him. 4 Likes 1 Share |

That is why the scriptures talks about about righteousness being like a filthy rag before God. All of these you have listed is very true, it goes on to show our human nature. However there is a place of leaning on the help of the holy Ghost. Even when we fall, scriptures encourages us to rise and not remain fallen. Proverbs 24:16 For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity. Thee is no way a man can walk without his head shaking. That is to tell you that in as much as you try, there are moments you will fall short of his glory. But what is important is for you to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, having at the back of your mind that there is something called eternity in heaven or hell. Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before usβ (Heb. 12:1). Philippians 2:12 Why, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:3 And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

UncleKoboko:You miss the point of being Christlike. The aim is not to prove anything to you or anybody. The commandment we were given is to love just as we have been loved. What you choose to believe is left to you. 2 Likes 1 Share |

ProudNigerian01: Unfortunately very few Christians understand what repentance is all about. That's why few enter into eternal life and many into eternal death. What I do is to make a list of sins and browse through them asking God for mercy in any way I have sinned against Him. 1 Like |

Onyiiobi7735: Sorry brother, you're wrong. Judgement of any and all humans has been committed to Jesus alone, the only one Who identifies with our frailties having gone through it too. He is merciful and understands. He will accept anything as long as love is the motive. You're very ignorant of what Jesus has done for you. If indeed you have received Christ, then you ought to know that you're no longer the one there. You're dead and in place of you is Jesus, the immovable rock. Sin has no place in your life whether you did it knowingly or not. Righteousness is what you are. Sin as we know it has lost its hold on any born again. It's up to you to grow into the full measure of Christ or remain a babe. There's so much room for growth and improvement for anyone in Christ. Just know one thing: No ine, not even you can pluck yourselves out if Jesus's Hands as long as you have believed in Him. 1 Like |
