1 | Christians? | Matt 7:21 | Asis | 187333 | ||
I agree with you whole heartedly. One of the bedrock scriptures that every believer must believe is Numbers 23:19. If we believe this scripture it establishes all that God has said. therefore if He said it it is true. As God through His word renews my thinking my thoughts are His thoughts and my ways are His ways. We call this obedience to God's word. What we forget is that this book is written with eastern thought. To find the definition of words used by God in his word we should not use Webster's dictionary. The Hebrews define "repent" as turning to God's way. When I do something in my own way the Holy Spirit convicts me of doing it my way instead of God's way. As a disciple of Christ my desire is to choose always to do it God's way and therefore I repent and turn back to God's way. That is what Peter was telling those who asked "what shall we do to be saved". Peter said turn to God and be saved. Romans 10:8-13 lays down the criteria for salvation. This cannot occur if we are thinking the world's way. We must repent and choose to live God's way. In Him Asis |
