The call to Repentance – Luke 13:1-9

March 22, 2025

Pastor Hans Peters

Fear of God and knowledge of sin is essential, but that is not the essence of repentance. Repentance is not remorse. It is not just enough to be broken. It is not just enough to be contrite. It is not just enough to turn over a new leaf to mess up a clean page. True repentance is revealed by changing our actions. Repentance it is more than turning over our lives. It is more than just feeling sorry for our sins. Repentance means to change the direction of our lives completely. It means to stop walking toward selfishness or self-centeredness or a life that is centered upon what the self desires. It means to make a 180-degree turn, to start walking toward God, toward his vision, toward His aim and goals for our lives.
