MEligion, Part 5: MEpentance // Chance Holt

Victory Fellowship Church Podcast

Repentance is not the same as MEpentance. In this message, Chance Holt explains the foundation of repentance on which we need to build our faith.

Jesus came to establish the kingdom of God.

Worldly culture vs kingdom of God.

Matthew 6:33

True wealth comes from seeking the kingdom of God and his righteousness.

Culture says repentance is a sign of weakness. The ways of the kingdom of God are opposite to the ways of worldly culture.

True wealth comes from seeking out the kingdom of God and His righteousness.

Fear based repentance is repentance focused on ourselves.

Repentance is not just emotional remorse and regret. Repentance is Godly sorrow that leads to salvation and leaves no regret.

Mark 6:12-13

Repent and then people were healed.

Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.

2 Cor 7:10

Hebrews 6:1. Repentance is the elementary side of being a Christian.

Repentance is a prerequisite (foundation) to your relationship with the Lord.

Repentance is a daily decision meant to be renewed day by day.

God forgives you when true repentance begins, not when it's complete.
