The Fruit Of Repentance

"how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;"
1 Thessalonians 1:9

Repentance becomes a sham when its ends in words without action.

There is no true clinging to Christ except there be a willful act of repentance, are there not many of Gods People who think Crying or Self Pity party is Repentance?

They sometimes have the tears of Judas, yet lack the heart of Peter.  I call it a "deceptive repentance" that hides under the cloth of outward piety yet lacks the heart of Godliness.

But the early saints knew its was impossible to serve two master at the same time, because there must be a turning from Sin before clinging to Christ, no wonder it was said of them, "how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;"

True repentance always has an everlasting testimony in the fruit its bears consistently...

Think about this. True repentance is not passive but active in its actions.
May The Lord Give You Understanding.

If You Go To Hell

by Chima Anaele Sylvanus

"And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments"... Luke 16:23

There are many people today who do not believe in what I am about to share or even if they believe they have a watered down understanding..

So let me say this real quick, the doctrine of Hell remain the same just as Jesus preached it. See.

"And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out,
and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for
thee that one of thy members should perish, and
not that thy whole body should be cast into hell". Matthew 5:29
