         REPENTANCE is a term used flippantly and loosely by the whorianity, because after all, their all saved by GRACE and by FAITH and they can turn to one verse wonders to DENY repentance such as Roms.11:29, not realizing they PERVERT REPENTANCE by picking and choosing verses to fit their apostasy. REPENTANCE in the scripture is a "GIFT" granted by God. Its not something you have naturally because the fallen nature is in ENMITY TO IT. Repentance is GRANTED by God unto salvation. Fallen man is so wicked and corrupt that REPENTANCE is an "ENEMY" to his evil pride and wickedness. Man fights off and HATES repentance because of the MAMMON SPIRIT "in" him and his pride AGAINST his fellow man. He thinks he must repent to his fellow man not knowing that his fellow man and himself has GOD IN THEM and they are repenting to God....that's if, God has GRANTED him repentance and its found WITHIN him. The modern churchianity believes that because their saved, they don't HAVE TO REPENT, they only have to REPENT TO GOD and that because "they discern the Lords BODY"!!!. So they 'commune" with the Lords Body HAVING DAMNATION not "discerning" it (1 Cor.11:29) and do all manner of wickedness to each other, with one another!. ESAU was "rejected" because HE COULD NOT FIND "PLACE" IN HIM FOR REPENTANCE and that even though he sought it with tears carefully (Heb.12:17). Jesus Christ was VERY blunt and sharp and forthright about REPENTANCE......


Lu 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

Lu 13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.


       IF you do not find place for or are granted REPENTANCE.......YOU SHALL PERISH, DOUBT IT NOT AND DO NOT BE DECEIVED!!!. Repentance is a primary prerequisite of salvation for without it, you are DAMNED and cast away from God into the lake of fire!......


Mt 3:2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Mt 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Mr 1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

Mr 6:12 And they went out, and preached that men should repent.

Ac 3:19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;

Ac 8:22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.

Ac 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

Ac 26:20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

Re 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

Re 2:16 Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

Re 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

Re 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

Re 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

Re 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.


            REPENTANCE supercedes and is THE FIRST WORK!. As John the Baptist preceded Jesus and his ministry was "REPENT", so as it is the "FIRST WORK" and if it is not done......YOUR CANDLESTICK SHALL BE REMOVED!!!. You are given the gift of eternal life on the onus that ye "REPENT", and if not, then GRACE has been "FRUSTRATED" and so has God and he will CAST YOU AWAY DOUBT IT NOT!. He will come to you "quickly" with the SWORD OF HIS MOUTH THROUGH HIS SAINTS AND JUDGE YOU OF YOUR WICKEDNESS!!!. Their judgment will determine your fate, DON'T BE DECEIVED (1 Cor.6:2). Unless all men EVERYWHERE "REPENT", they shall......."PERISH"!!!. The 'fruit" from the seed given in you MUST BRING FORTH FRUITS MEET FOR REPENTANCE for without them, you shall have no fruit only a vine with "leaves" on it which shall be cast into the fire (Mt.21:19). REPENTANCE is always "frustrated" because SIN is attempted to be HIDDEN in that person, thus, they make excuses NOT TO REPENT because of pride, covetousness, envy, jealousy for "ALL SIN IS WITHOUT THE BODY" (1 Cor.6:18}. Think about that one again......"ALL SIN IS WITHOUT....."THE BODY"!. Not only your FLESH body, BUT THE BODY OF CHRIST THAT IS "ONE" IN JESUS CHRIST!. Repentance is a "GIFT". As the gifts and calling of God is "WITHOUT YOUR OWN REPENTANCE OF YOURSELF, IT IS OF GOD AND IS ONE OF THOSE GIFTS" and is numero uno on the list of "the calling". You were called to "REPENT"......FIRST!.


Mt 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:

Mt 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

Mt 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Mr 1:4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

Mr 2:17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Lu 3:3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

Lu 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

Lu 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Lu 15:7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

Lu 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

Ac 5:31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

Ac 11:18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

Ac 13:24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

Ac 19:4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

Ac 20:21 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

Ac 26:20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

Ro 2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

2Co 7:9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.

2Co 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

2Ti 2:25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

Heb 12:17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us–ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.



        REPENTANCE IS A "GIFT" OF GOD AS THE SCRIPTURE CERTIFIES!. IT IS TO BE SOUGHT FOR AND FOUND IF GOD VERILY SHALL GRANT IT TO YOU BY "THE WORKS" YE MEET FOR IT!!.


2Ti 2:25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

Ac 11:18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.


         "IT IS A GIFT GRANTED BY GOD"!!! You are "given" it if FOUND WORTHY by the fruits meted and it gains ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THE TRUTH!. If your like ESAU, and God has found "NO PLACE IN YOU FOR IT" to be given because their was no "fruits" for it........SAYANORA!!!.. "Godly sorrow" woketh REPENTANCE NOT TO BE REPENTED OF IN THE END"!!!. I tell you now, If and when God comes a knocking "as a thief" and FINDS that you are IN NEED OF REPENTANCE OR "IN" REPENTANCE.......YOUR TOAST.....


Ho 13:14 I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from mine eyes.


       If you are still "IN" repentance then your still "IN SIN"!!. Do you understand this? Your conscience bares witness to the Lord that THE GOSPEL has not availed and had effect unto you and you need REPENTANCE FOR SIN!. It means your STILL A SINNER and if so your still SINNING......"IN SPIRIT WITHOUT THE BODY"!!!. If so, YOUR DOOMED!!!.


1Jo 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

1Co 6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.


         This is not to say that he is WITHOUT SIN (1 Jn.1:8}, it means HE DOES NOT SIN WITHOUT THE BODY ANYMORE......"THE SPIRIT"!!!. You are made in the image of God. YOU are his "TEMPLE", HIS DWELLING PLACE". If you sin "WITH THE BODY" you are sinning against THE TEMPLE, DEFILING IT!. If you get the sanctuary dirty and unclean, GOD WONT DWELL THERE!!!. He's "HOLY" and will not dwell where you've dirtied it up having "DISRESPECT FOR IT"!!!. All sin in the end is "WITHOUT THE BODY, IN SPIRIT" and if your sinning WITHOUT THE BODY YOUR........"BLASPHEMING THE HOLY SPIRIT AND IT SHALL NOT BE FORGIVEN YOU"!. This is hard and deep stuff and I don't know if many will understand what I and the word is saying. Nevertheless, I'm placing it up here anyhow so that perhaps "FEW" may grab hold onto these little nuggets. Those who are in abject sin and that AGAINST THE BODY are being pushed off and rejected away from God. HE'S NOT GRANTING YOU "REPENTANCE" and as such their NO PLACE FOUND "IN" YOU FOR IT just like Esau!. Everything is by SPIRIT and if your sinning WITH THE BODY you are sinning "WITHOUT IT IN SPIRIT"!!!.


REPENT THEREFORE AND DO THE "FIRST WORKS........"REPENTANCE"!!!


Jer 18:10 If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.


Re 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works ; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
