- Popular opinion in Jesus day: These were more evil than others,
hence their suffering. (Jn. 9:1-3; Job 4:7) Eliphaz (Jobs friend)
answered and said: Job 4:7 Remember now, who ever perished being
innocent? Or where were the upright ever cut off? John 9:1 Now as
Jesus passed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth. 2 And His
disciples asked Him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his
parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither this man
nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be
revealed in him. M 18

- Another example of this mentality (Acts 28:3-4) People today
call this Karma In Luke 13:1-5, Jesus emphasizes the absolute
necessity of repentance for all. Acts 28:3 But when Paul had
gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came
out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand. 4 So when the
natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one
another, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has
escaped the sea, yet justice does not allow to live. H1H1

- Luke 13:1-5 (NKJV) 1 There were present at that season some who
told Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with
their sacrifices. 2 And Jesus answered and said to them, Do you
suppose that these Galileans were worse sinners than all other
Galileans, because they suffered such things? 3 I tell you, no; but
unless you repent you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen
on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that
they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise
perish. O4O4

- In Luke 13 Jesus refutes this common idea 3 I tell you, no; but
unless you repent you will all likewise perish. 4 Or those eighteen
on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that
they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem?
5 I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise
perish. OrRepent Perish A 10 5

- Thayer: to incur the loss of eternal lifeto be delivered up to
eternal misery. Vine: the idea is not extinction, but ruin, loss-
not of being, but of well-being. Used of the loss of well-being of
the unsaved in eternity (Matt. 25:41) Matthew 25:41 Then He will
also say to those on the left hand, Depart from Me, you cursed,
into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:

- It is Gods desire that we repent! (2 Pet. 3:9) When we
understand the meaning of perish we see the imperative need of
repentance. Repentance is a prominent Biblical theme. 2 Peter 3:9
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. C 19

- Taught by Gods prophets to Israel Jeremiah 25:5 They said,
Repent now everyone of his evil way and his evil doings, and dwell
in the land that the L ORD has given to you and your fathers
forever and ever. Ezekiel 18:30 Therefore I will judge you, O house
of Israel, every one according to his ways, says the Lord G OD.
Repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity
will not be your ruin. A 16 8
- Slide 9
- Taught by Christ and His Apostles Mark 6:12 So (the Apostles)
they went out and preached that people should repent. Acts 17:30
(Paul to the people of Athens) Truly, these times of ignorance God
overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, Matthew
4:17 (Jesus beginning His Galilean ministry) From that time Jesus
began to preach and to say, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at
hand. A 17

- Luke 24:46 (Jesus appearing to the apostles after His death)
Then He said to them, Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary
for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,
47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in
His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And you are
witnesses of these things. Acts 2:38 Then Peter (in Jerusalem on
the day of Pentecost) 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. C 20

- Fear. (Acts 24:24-27) Acts 24:24 And after some days, when
Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, he sent for Paul
and heard him concerning the faith in Christ. 25 Now as he reasoned
about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come, Felix
was afraid and answered, Go away for now; when I have a convenient
time I will call for you. 27 But after two years Porcius Festus
succeeded Felix; and Felix, wanting to do the Jews a favor, left
Paul bound. R 14 11
- Slide 12
- Conviction of guilt. (Acts 2:37-38) A person may have a brief
moment of guilt, only soon after to move past that feeling. Acts
2:37 Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said
to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall
we do? 38 Then 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. E 13

- Regret for wrong-doing. (Matt. 27:3) Matthew 27:3 Then Judas,
His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and
brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and
elders, 4 saying, I have sinned by betraying innocent blood. And
they said, What is that to us? You see to it! 5 Then he threw down
the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and
hanged himself. E9E9 13
- Slide 14
- Sorrow. (2 Cor. 7:10) Some are sorry because they got caught.
Some are sorry because of humiliation. Some are made sorry because
of the penalties. 2 Corinthians 7:10 For godly sorrow produces
repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the
sorrow of the world produces death. E5E5
- Slide 15
- Mere reformation of ones life. (Ezek. 14:6) Repentance leads to
reformation. Some reform for other reasons. Addict might reform for
health reasons A gambler might reform for financial reasons An
adulterer might reform to save his/her marriage Ezekiel 14:6
Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord G OD :
Repent, turn away from your idols, and turn your faces away from
all your abominations. G2G2 N 21
- Slide 16
- Confession. (Ex. 9:27; I Sam. 15:24) Some confess sin, but
continue in it! Announcement - Im sorry I am this way. 27 And
Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, I
have sinned this time. The L ORD is righteous, and my people and I
are wicked. 28 Entreat the L ORD, that there may be no more mighty
thundering and hail, for it is enough. I will let you go, and you
shall stay no longer. 34 And when Pharaoh saw that the rain, the
hail, and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet more; and he
hardened his heart, he and his servants. N8N8 C 11

- Repentance produces a radical change in ones life. Acts 3:19
Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted
out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the
Lord, Matthew 3:8 Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, Acts
26:20 but (Paul tells King Agrippa that he) declared first to those
in Damascus and in Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of
Judea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent, turn to
God, and do works befitting repentance. E7E7 18

- A difficult commandment because it deals with the will of man:
humility; self-examination; admission of guilt; a resolve to make
amends. 2 Examples of repentance: 1 Corinthians 6:9 Acts 19:19 1
Corinthians 6:9 (abbreviated) Do you not know that the unrighteous
will not inherit the kingdom of God? 11 And such were some of you.
But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were
justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our
God. N 22

- The goodness of God. Rom. 2:4 The knowledge of coming judgment.
Acts 17:30-31 Acts 17:30 Truly, these times of ignorance God
overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31
because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in
righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given
assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead. Romans 2:4
Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and
longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to
repentance? P 15 21

- A time is coming when it will be too late! 2 Corinthians 6:2
For He says: In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day
of salvation I have helped you. Behold, now is the accepted time;
behold, now is the day of salvation. Proverbs 1:24 Because I have
called and you refused, I have stretched out my hand and no one
regarded, 27 When your terror comes like a storm, And your
destruction comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come
upon you. 28 Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They
will seek me diligently, but they will not find me. R 23 22

- Puzzle Answer 2 Corinthians 7:11 For observe this very thing,
that you sorrowed in a godly manner: What diligence it produced in
you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what
vehement desire, what zeal, what vindication! In all things you
proved yourselves to be clear in this matter. Sincere Attitude
Desire for forgiveness Anger over their own sins Horror of Gods
wrath Longing for righteousness Enthusiasm for Gods work EVIDENCE
OF REPENTANCE! 23

with His mighty angels, 8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those
who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our
Lord Jesus Christ. 9 These shall be punished with everlasting
destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His
power,
