The Power of Nine...

Do you know the 9 words that sum up the Gospel message?

"Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand" Matthew 3:2; 4:17.

Repentance, Repent.. What does that mean? It means to turn around from sin and go the other way. John the Baptist, Yeshua, and the Deciples all taught this. This is a BIG part of the Good News, the Gospel message. Turn around and stop sinning. If you turn around, you turn your back on sin (unrighteousness) and by doing this you turn toward righteousness, for Sin is Transgression of the Law (Torah) 1 John 3:4. Righteousness is the keeping of the Law (Torah). No, we are NOT Saved from our righteous acts (works) of Law abiding, but by doing so, we show our Faith and our Love for HIM and HIS Grace (unmerited favor) is abundantly given to us. James 2:17-26, 1 John 2:3-6; 5:3.

The Torah is G-d's guidlines or instruction. If we fail in one commandment, we have broken them all (James 2:10), but Yeshua is there with forgiveness. He takes away the condemnation because HE kept every aspect of the Torah, Perfectly.. The unblemished Lamb.

So I say also... Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand.. The King is Coming again... Are you Ready?

Shalom,

John
