1 | Christians? | Matt 7:21 | CDBJ | 187284 | ||
Greetings AF, I’m not saying that I completely disagree with you but the verse you used to explain repentance, in Matt. doesn’t say what you’ve implied in the KJV. Matthew 4:17 (KJV) From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Using the word to describe it isn’t a definition the way I see it. Have a great day, CDBJ |

If showing that repentance is turning from sin using two translations doesn't define it, what would? | ||||||

Hi AF, Maybe I missed something in your post; I’ve been known to do that now and again? What two translations were in reference I only noticed the one, (KJV)? I also notice that you made a change in post #187070 form (sins), to (sin) in post #187288 is there a difference? CDBJ |

Matthew 4:17 From then on, Jesus began to preach, "Turn from your sins and turn to God, because the Kingdom of Heaven is near." (New Living Translation) Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (King James Version 1611, 1769) Sins are acts we commit. Sin is the nature imputed to mankind through Adam. Jesus not only died for our sins, the acts we commit that fall short of the glory of God, but for sin, the nature that makes us blind to God's righteousness and our relationship to Him that is now restored through Christ. |
