The Tale of Two Cities that had God's Wrath 

Wanting to Repent?  

 

For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord God. “Therefore turn and live!” Ezekiel 18:19-32

Jesus, “And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him Who, after your body has been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him.” Luke 12:4-5

WHY REPENT? 

Our Condition     God’s Warning       God’s Hope     Our Turning

 

Our Condition -

           for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans 3:10-26; Psalm 14:1-3; Psalm 53:1-3; Ecclesiastes 7:20; Psalm 5:9; Psalm 140:3; Psalm 10:7; Isaiah 59:7-8; Psalm 36:1    This means that you and me, and every person, has come short of the Perfection of God.

 

            The fool has said in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, They have done abominable works, There is none who does good. Psalm 14:1-3

            Their feet run to evil, And they make haste to shed innocent blood; Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquityWasting and destruction are in their pathsAnd there is no justice in their ways; They have made themselves crooked paths; Isaiah 59:7-8

            There is no fear of God before his eyes. Psalm 36:1


            I listened and heard, But they do not speak aright. No man repented of his wickedness, Saying, ‘What have I done?’ Everyone turned to his own course, As the horse rushes into the battle. Jeremiah 8:6

 

God’s Warning

            it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,Hebrews 9:27; Hebrews 4:12-13; Romans 1:18-2:11; Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10; Revelation 20:14-15 

Hebrews 9:27; Hebrews 4:12-13; Romans 1:18-2:11; Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10; Revelation 20:14-15 

            Jesus answered, “But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.”  Matthew 12:36

            So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. Romans 14:12

              For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand? Revelation 6:17

            He says: “All day long I have stretched out My hands To a disobedient and contrary people.”  Romans 10:21  

            For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another. But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Titus 3:3-7    

            Jesus lamented, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! Matthew 23:37-39, Psalm 118:26

            Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” Luke 21:7-36 

            “God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?” Numbers 23:19

God’s Hope -

            “Therefore I will judge you, every one according to his ways,” says the Lord GOD. “Repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity will not be your ruin.” Ezekiel 18:30

 

            “Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” Joel 2:12

            Thus says the Lord GOD: “Repent, turn away from your idols, and turn your faces away from all your abominations.” Ezekiel 14:6

            Jesus answered, I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish…I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.”  Luke 1:2-3,5

           

            Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.” Acts 2:38-39

            Surely, after my turning, I repented; And after I was instructed, I struck myself on the thigh; I was ashamed, yes, even humiliated, Because I bore the reproach of my youth.’ Jeremiah 31:19

 

            The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9

 

           

            “Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways,” says the Lord God. “Repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity will not be your ruin. Cast away from you all the transgressions which you have committed, and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit. For why should you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord God. “Therefore turn and live! Ezekiel 18:19-32 (What God says to Israel is also for you, the Reader, and for your nation.)

            “If our transgressions and our sins lie upon us, and we pine away in them, how can we then live?”’  ‘As I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn, turn from your evil ways! For why should you die, O house of Israel?’ Ezekiel 33:10-11

            The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself. Do I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die?” says the Lord God, “and not that he should turn from his ways and live?” (No!)  Ezek 18:20, 23

            I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. Luke 13:3

            I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." Luke 15:7,10

            Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones. Luke 3:8, Matthew 3:8

            So you, by the help of your God, return; Observe mercy and justice, And wait on your God continually. Hosea 12:6
