Bible Note: But Brad, wouldn't you agree that we as obedient children of God MUST comply with the terms and conditions of Jesus' Last Will and Testament as reflected in... Heb 9:16 For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. 17 For a testament is in force after men are dead, since it has no power at all while the testator lives. If we're agreed on that then we must agree to God's other Commands as given by His Son and His Apostles listed in... Matt 28:18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen. and Acts 2:38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.” I agree with you Repentance in of itself doesn't save us just like the act of Baptism doesn't save us. It's the fact that we're willing to humbly submit ourselves to God's Requirements so that we can receive the Gift of Salvation. This is made so clear by Jesus Himself in... Jn 14:21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered and said to him, “IF ANYONE LOVES ME, HE WILL KEEP MY WORD; AND MY FATHER WILL LOVE HIM, AND WE WILL COME TO HIM AND AND MAKE OUR HOME WITH HIM. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me. (As usual, all caps above are mine for emphasis.) I don't see how God's Word could make it any more clear. Repentance is most certainly REQUIRED of us IF we want to be saved from our sins. Go with God in all things, Bill |
