Repent and Believe - The Real Meaning (Mark 1:15)
Episode 67
Published 1 year, 9 months ago
Description
Many people today will say that salvation is a 2-step process of repenting from your sins (grieve, turn, commit to stop sinning) and believe. But the Greek word metanoia which is translated repent simply means to think differently or change your mind (Strongs 3340).
Repentance and belief should not be seen as separate items in response to the gospel, but together they signify belief in Christ. To believe in Christ is to change one’s mind about Christ and trust Him alone for salvation.
Mark 1:14-15,,, 14 After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God. 15 “The time has come,” he said. “The kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news!”
