Repentance unto life is when a sinner returns to the Father’s house and eats together. One who was dead and is alive again, one who was lost and is found again.
This process must be present for it to be true repentance.
In other words, it is the sinner believing in our Lord Jesus Christ and returning to the Father’s house.
Ephesians chapter 2 says that we were dead because of sins and transgressions. We were those who followed the customs of this world.
That is, in Romans chapter 5, before to the atoning grace of Jesus Christ’s cross, we were descendants of fallen Adam. Through fallen Adam, sin entered the world, and through sin, death entered.
Thus, because all have sinned, death entered to all people. Sin and death reign within us, the descendants of fallen Adam.
We were slaves to sin and death. Ultimately, at the final Great White Throne Judgment, we suffer the harm of the second death through the resurrection of death. We are cast into the lake of fire.
We must recognize the fact that we are dead because of sin (Ephesians 2:1).
We are not sinners because we committed many sins; rather, we were born dead because of sin from birth. We had no relationship with God and were held captive by the devil, who holds the power of death.
But God loved us and sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, into this world. Hallelujah!
The Word who was in the beginning came to this earth partaker of flesh and blood. It was Jesus. He was crucified and died for our sins. And on the third day, He rose again from the dead for our righteousness. He ascended to heaven and sat at the right hand of God. Jesus, the Lamb seated on the throne, has come into us as the Spirit of truth. It is Christ, the Son of God. Anointing is within us. It is Immanuel. Hallelujah!
God has sent the Holy Spirit within us.
"The Holy Spirit has come, the Holy Spirit has come, the Holy Spirit sent by my Lord has come." Let us proclaim this good news to the whole world. The Holy Spirit has come. The Holy Spirit has come into us.
The Holy Spirit works outside for unbelievers with miracles, signs, and various gifts, and He comes into us to become the Spirit of truth and the Spirit of life. We have eternal life by believing that Jesus, who was crucified, is Lord and Christ and dwells within us. Hallelujah.
We are freed from sin and death in Christ Jesus our Lord.
We are freed from sin and death by the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus.
The Spirit of life in Christ Jesus is in us.
Romans 5 says:
Through the grace of the Lord's atonement, He has transferred us, from death to life.
He has transferred us, who were in fallen Adam, into the last Adam, Christ. Our affiliation has changed.
We must recognize the fact that our affiliation has changed.
We must know the fact that God has transferred us from death to life through Jesus' death on the cross and resurrection, and that through the baptism in Romans 6, we have become united with Christ. Hallelujah!
In fact, without revelation, one cannot even repent.
The flesh distinguishes only between good and evil; it cannot distinguish between sin and righteousness, death and life, or darkness and light. Only the born-again believer can do this.
You must come to know yourself as someone who is united with Christ through baptism, whose death is in the Lord’s death, and who is dead to sin and free from it. Furthermore, through union with the Lord’s resurrection and life, you must discover yourself and confirm that you are one who is dead to sin and alive before God in Christ. Only then can you approach God boldly. You enter the Father's house.
One who has nothing to do with sin, you come to long for the Lord to manifest within you.
You eagerly await the manifestation of the Lord’s glory within you.
That is why the Book of Hebrews says partakers of Christ, partakers of holiness, and partakers of the glory of God.
Only then do we become the house of God.
It is a house where the glory of God dwells.
If you are not partakers of holiness, there is discipline.
You must receive forgiveness of sins through repentance and baptism to receive the Holy Spirit as a gift.
The Holy Spirit works within us and manifests his glory within us.
The Kingdom of God is manifested within us. That is why it is said that the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are blessed.
When the glory of God shines within me, the glory of God becomes my treasure.
We must earnestly hope for the Kingdom of God to manifest within us.
"The Word dwells within us, and we see His glory..." Just as it is written, we must certainly see the glory of the Lord.
Otherwise, we are merely flesh.
Do not rejoice simply because you have participated in the manifestation of the Holy Spirit. Judas Iscariot also participated in the manifestation of the Holy Spirit. There are self-proclaimed servants of the Lord in the lake of fire.
If you live in the flesh and bear the fruit of the flesh, you will suffer the resurrection of death. You will go to the eternal lake of fire.
Those who claim to go to heaven later are those who have not been born again.
Those who currently have no their own resurrection are still dead in sin.
They are those who have not repented unto life.
We must receive the Lord Jesus Christ into us to have life.
There are many Antichrists in this world.
