Bible Note: 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. |
