Blessings are attached to Sincere Repentance:

 

Peace IF...

Prosperity IF...

Posterity IF...

Promised Land IF...

 

IF we Repent.

 

Q:

What is Repentance, Scripturally?

 

A:

As always, we must consider The Hebrew Context:

 

shub: to turn back, return

Original Word: שׁוּב

Part of Speech: Verb

Transliteration: shub

Phonetic Spelling: (shoob)

Definition: to turn back, return

 

The Hebrew word for “Repent” is 

“Shub” pronounced “shoob”. 

This means to “Turn back” or “Shub” 

from one way, and go the opposite way.

 

So to “Repent” from moving left,

is to move right.

 

To “Repent” from moving down,

is to move up.

 

To “Repent” from moving backward,

is to move forward.

 

To “Repent” is not only to 

STOP practicing sin, 

but also to 

START practicing righteousness.

 

Repentance is even more specific scripturally than many understand it to be, as it is always connected to sin:

 

Mark 1

4 John appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a 

BAPTISM OF REPENTANCE FOR 

THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.

5 And all the country of Judea and all Jerusalem were going out to him and were being 

—>BAPTIZED BY HIM

in the river Jordan, 

—>ACKNOWLEDGING THEIR SINS.

 

Luke 3

3 And he went into all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a 

BAPTISM OF REPENTANCE FOR 

THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS.

 

NOTE: 

Sins can be Forgiven in

Mark 1:4, and

Luke 3:3 and

should be Acknowledged in

Mark 1:5.

 

Luke 5

32 I have not come to call the righteous but SINNERS TO REPENTANCE.

 

NOTE: 

Sinners must Repent according to

Luke 5:32.

 

Romans 3

23 for ALL HAVE SINNED 

and fall short of the glory of God

 

NOTE: 

If Sinners are called to Repent in 

Luke 5:32, and 

ALL have Sinned in 

Romans 3:23, then 

ALL have been called to Repent.

 

Acts 3

19 REPENT therefore, and 

TURN BACK, that 

your SINS may be BLOTTED OUT

 

Q: 

Then what do we “TURN BACK” to?

 

A:

2 Corinthians 7

10 For godly grief produces a 

REPENTANCE THAT

LEADS TO SALVATION

without regret,

whereas worldly grief produces death. 

 

A: 

We Repent Back to, 

or Turn Back to 

Salvation (Yeshua, Jesus)

Q: 

As one cannot know Salvation without Repenting from Sin, then what is “Sin”?

 

A:

1 John 3

4 Everyone who makes a 

PRACTICE OF SINNING 

ALSO PRACTICES LAWLESSNESS; 

—>SIN IS LAWLESSNESS. 

 

A:

Sin is Lawlessness in

1 John 3:4.

 

Q: 

Which Law?

 

A:

Jeremiah 31

33 For this is 

—>THE COVENANT 

that I will make with The House of Israel after those days, declares YeHoVaH:

I will put 

—>MY LAW within them, and 

—>I WILL WRITE IT 

on their HEARTS. 

And I will be their God, 

and they shall be my people. 

 

A: 

THE COVENANT is

THE LAW to which we

REPENT/TURN BACK.

 

Q: 

Then which Covenanted Law is

the only Covenanted Law

written by God Himself? 

 

Exodus 31

18 And He gave to Moses,

when he had finished speaking with him

on Mount Sinai, 

THE TWO TABLETS OF 

—>THE TESTIMONY, 

TABLETS OF STONE, 

—>WRITTEN WITH

THE FINGER OF GOD. 

 

Deuteronomy 4

13 And He declared to you 

—>HIS COVENANT, 

which He commanded you to perform, that is, 

—>THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, 

—>AND HE WROTE THEM ON 

TWO TABLETS OF STONE. 

 

A: 

THE 10 COMMANDMENTS are

The only Covenanted Law

Written by God Himself.

 

Therefore, 

Godly Grief produces Repentance, 

Repentance is Turning FROM sin,

Sin is Lawlessness.

 

Repentance is

Turning FROM Sin/Lawlessness,

Repentance is

Turning BACK TO God’s Law

GOD’S ETERNAL LAW is 

HIS ETERNAL COVENANT, which is

HIS ETERNAL TESTIMONY, which is 

HIS ETERNAL 10 COMMANDMENTS.

 

THIS is how Repentance specifically leads to Salvation.

 

HEBREW NOTE:

The Hebrew word for 

“Salvation”

is

“Yeshua”.

 

Yeshua is the given Name for The Messiah, many call Him Jesus.

 

Truly I say, 

IF we keep God’s 10 Commandments, 

then His promises surely follow:

 

Peace 

Prosperity

Posterity 

Protection

Promised Land 

 

Shalom (Peace)
