Re: Why is Ongoing Repentance Necessary For A Christian?
youre gonna look a long long time. ever hear about the wise man?
Matthew 7
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
you have to do. whats wrong with people that they cant get a simple concept? jesusw builds his church on the rock. the rock is revelation from the father. how do you get that? he only gives it to those who DO his will, which is what his son tells you to do. he did say "listen to him" in a voice from heaven, didnt he?
there you go. the secret to the kingdom. the keys of whech were given to peter. but your pride wont let you. you dont like me. well, too bad. learn to love.
