Prayer request to please pray for me and my boyfriend. We've been going through a rough spot and are struggling, and I've been growing away from God and my faith and just want to be close to the Lord again while helping my relationship as well

Of course!

Here is a prayer to know and love God:

Make me worthy, O Lord, to know and love Thee, not with knowledge from the exercise of a scattered nous; but make me worthy of that knowledge whereby, beholding Thee, the nous glorifies Thy nature, in divine vision which robs the mind of awareness of the world. Account me worthy to be lifted above my will's wandering eye which begets imaginings, and to behold Thee in the constraint of the Cross's bond, in the second part of the crucifixion of the nous, which willingly ceases from its conceptual imaginings to abide in Thy continuous vision that surpasses nature. Implant in my heart an increase of Thy love, that it may be drawn back from this world by fervent love for Thee. Awake in me understanding of Thy humility, wherewith Thou didst sojourn in the world in the covering of flesh which Thou didst bear from our members by the mediation of the Holy Virgin, that with this continual and unfailing recollection I may accept the humility of my nature with delight.

Here is a prayer to increase love:

O Christ, You bound Your apostles in a union of love, and have bound us, Your faithful servants, to Yourself with that same bond. Grant that we may fulfill Your commandments and love one another, through the prayers of the Theotokos, for You are the only Lover of mankind. Set our hearts on fire with love for You, O Christ our God, that in its flame we may love You with all our heart, with all our mind, with all our soul and with all our strength, and our neighbors as ourselves, so that keeping Your commandments, we may glorify You, the Giver of all good gifts.

Here is a prayer to find a spouse:

All-Good and Merciful Lord, I know that any enduring happiness in my life dependeth upon my wholehearted love for Thee and upon mine actions according to Thy holy will in all things; wherefore, direct my soul, O God, and fill my heart. I seek to please Thee alone, for Thou art my Creator and my God. Preserve me from pride and self-love. Let reason, modesty and chastity adorn me. Idleness is hateful unto Thee and breedeth vice; grant unto me the inclination to be fruitful in labor, and bless Thou my work. Thy law commandeth that man and wife live in chaste matrimonial union; wherefore lead me, Holy Father, to this blessed calling not for the satisfaction of passions but unto the fulfillment of Thy commandment; for Thou hast said that it is not good that man should live alone and, having created woman as his helper, Thou blessest them to be fruitful and multiply that they may fill the earth. Hear my humble prayer, which ascendeth unto Thee from the depths of my heart: Grant unto me an honest and pious spouse that, through our love and harmony, together we may praise Thee, our Compassionate God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

It's worth mentioning that this prayer isn't meant as a 'break up our relationship God' prayer and isn't explicitly reserved for single people. It is a prayer to meditate on marriage and God's Will for our lives. It is a prayer to let modesty, chastity, and the Will of God direct our romantic relationships. It is a prayer to grow in love and harmony, and this could absolutely mean directing your boyfriend to grow in his own walk with God and to be that pious spouse for you that will help you in your journey in life.

And here is a prayer for yourself and your boyfriend in time of need:

O God, our help in time of need, Who are just and merciful, and Who inclines to the supplications of His people. Look down upon my boyfriend and I and have mercy on us and deliver us from the trouble that now besets us. Deal with my boyfriend and I not according to our iniquities, but according to Your manifold mercies, for we are the works of Your hands, and You know our weaknesses. I pray to you to grant my boyfriend and I Your divine helping grace, and endow us with patience and strength to endure our hardships with complete submission to Your Will. Only You know our misery and sufferings, and to You, our only hope and refuge, we flee for relief and comfort, trusting in Your infinite love and compassion, that in due time, when You know best, You will deliver my boyfriend and I from this trouble, and turn our distress into comfort. We then shall rejoice in Your mercy, and exalt and praise Your Holy Name, O Father, Son and Holy Spirit, both now and forever and to the ages of ages. Amen.

1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;

2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

5 And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.

6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;

7 And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.

8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.

9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

11 And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

12 And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness.

13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.

14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.

18 And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.

19 And when he had gone a little farther thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.

20 And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.

21 And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.

22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.

23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

24 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.

25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.

27 And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.

28 And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.

29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.

31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.

32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.

33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.

34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.

35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.

38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.

39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.

40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.

43 And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;

44 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

45 But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

[nottskyler]

I remember being taught that after the restoration of the Church to Joseph Smith that the Church would never again be taken from the earth, but this teaching contradicts what was taught by Christ in 3 Nephi 16.

“And thus commandeth the Father that I should say unto you: At that day when the Gentiles shall sin against my gospel, and shall reject the fulness of my gospel, and shall be lifted up in the pride of their hearts above all nations, and above all the people of the whole earth, and shall be filled with all manner of lyings, and of deceits, and of mischiefs, and all manner of hypocrisy, and murders⁠, and priestcrafts⁠, and whoredoms, and of secret abominations; and if they shall do all those things, and shall reject the fulness of my gospel, behold, saith the Father, I will bring the fulness of my gospel from among them.” (3 Nephi 16:10)

This is also followed with the warning to repent or be trampled on:

“But if they will not turn unto me, and hearken unto my voice, I will suffer them, yea, I will suffer my people, O house of Israel, that they shall go through among them, and shall tread them down, and they shall be as salt that hath lost its savor, which is thenceforth good for nothing but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of my people, O house of Israel.” (3 Nephi 16:15)

Anyway, I think this is something the Church really should be focusing on when so many members think it is okay to adopt politics of hate and go to the temple. That is exactly the behavior that will lead to being destroyed. You can’t green light the torture and murder people over imaginary lines drawn on a map, or to make believing differently than you illegal and to refuse healthcare to them for that reason, or to eradicate programs that were at least trying to relieve suffering in the world and think you belong in Gd’s presence.

And I think it is this haughty belief that you are doing no wrong because you are worthy of a temple recommend. That being commissioned by Jesus Christ to bring His Gospel to the world means the Church can do no wrong. That there is no requirement to repent because we are the chosen and elect people holier than everyone else because we have The Truth.

I know I am personally in a fully middle class ward in the middle of Utah and things go differently in other wards. But it feels like Church leadership is wrapped in the same bubble even when they go around the world and see other circumstances.

𝗗𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘆 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Haagenti

𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

Today we are being asked to ground ourselves in reality and focus on worldly things such as our health, family, business and finances. We have the ability to create great luxury and success in our lives with good long term planning and hard work. There is an industrious quality here which reminds us that we can turn base elements into something valuable. Perhaps this would be a good day to organise the things in the home so we surround ourselves in an prosperous atmosphere which considers the needs of everybody in the household.

𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗸

“The 48th spirit is called Haagenti, he is a great president appearing in the forme of a mighty Bull wth griffins wings at first, But afterwardes at ye command of the Exorcist, he putteth on humane shape &c his office is to make men wise and to Instruct them in divers Things & to Transmute all mettales into gold, & change wine into water, & water into wine; he commandeth 33 Legions of spirits; his seal is Thus made, & to be worne as a Lamin &c.”

"For verily, verily I say unto you, he that hath the spirit of contention is not of me, but is of the devil, who is the father of contention, and he stirreth up the hearts of men to contend with anger, one with another.

Behold, this is not my doctrine, to stir up the hearts of men with anger, one against another; but this is my doctrine, that such things should be done away.

Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, I will declare unto you my doctrine.

And this is my doctrine, and it is the doctrine which the Father hath given unto me; and I bear record of the Father, and the Father beareth record of me, and the Holy Ghost beareth record of the Father and me; and I bear record that the Father commandeth all men, everywhere, to repent and believe in me.

And whoso believeth in me, and is baptized, the same shall be saved; and they are they who shall inherit the kingdom of God."

“The Impact of Deeper Growth” In Touch Bible Study Notes 07/02/2024

My thoughts on this study are as follows:

When we grow strong in our faith “roots”, like trees grow their roots, we are able to withstand whatever life may throw our way. Our faith can be strong as long as we stay in the Word of God, and don’t neglect our relationship with our Heavenly Father. We should continually fix our eyes on Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We don’t have to worry about anything, but rather bring everything to Him, and focus our attention and thoughts on His character and not our troubles. Jesus is there always. He’s what we always need. God won’t always give us everything we want and ask for, but He will in time give us what we need, what He knows is best for us, and that’s something we can always count on.

Verses read:

“As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.”

‭‭Colossians‬ ‭2‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy. And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm. And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.”

‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭22‬-‭25‬ ‭KJV‬‬

My prayer for anyone reading this today:

Lord, help whoever comes across this Bible study. Whatever they need, be it comfort, Your love and peace, strength through their own personal storms, or just a reason to keep fighting whatever battle they find themselves in. God, lend them Your Grace and Mercy. Jesus, hold them close to You, and let their heart not be troubled or afraid. Give them the ability to take up their Cross daily and follow You. I ask these things for myself as well. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

[delightintruth]

“And now I say unto you that the good shepherd doth call after you; and if you will hearken unto his voice he will bring you into his fold, and ye are his sheep; and he commandeth you that ye suffer no ravenous wolf to enter among you, that ye may not be destroyed.”

Alma 5:60

[shrubseph]

I found these verses while reading for Come Follow Me:

2 Nephi 26:24-28

24 He [God] doeth not anything save it be for the benefit of the world; for he loveth the world, even that he layeth down his own life that he may draw all men unto him. Wherefore, he commandeth none that they shall not partake of his salvation.

25 Behold, doth he cry unto any, saying: Depart from me? Behold, I say unto you, Nay; but he saith: Come unto me all ye ends of the earth, buy milk and honey, without money and without price.

26 Behold, hath he commanded any that they should depart out of the synagogues, or out of the houses of worship? Behold, I say unto you, Nay.

27 Hath he commanded any that they should not partake of his salvation? Behold I say unto you, Nay; but he hath given it free for all men; and he hath commanded his people that they should persuade all men to repentance.

28 Behold, hath the Lord commanded any that they should not partake of his goodness? Behold I say unto you, Nay; but all men are privileged the one like unto the other, and none are forbidden.

Basically everyone is welcome and wanted, not just white CisHet members of the church with perfect families. God has never commanded anyone that they should 'depart out of the synagogues, or out of the houses of worship', or that they should 'not partake of his salvation' so if someone is making people feel unwelcome at church, or is denying deserving people access to the temple, then they definitely aren't doing God's work.

Hello! It is me! Your God (She/Her)! I Commandeth and Demandeth that you love and take care of yourself!

[orthodoxadventure]

coming valentine day i want to reveal to a certain girl how i really feel. she's very special but as always self-doubt and second guessing keep messing with my thoughts. please, please pray for us both

Of course! I will keep you in my prayers, and I would also recommend praying the Akathist to Saint Xenia of Saint Petersburg who is known for helping someone to find a pious spouse. It would be good also to pray it for her benefit as well.

I would also recommend the following prayer, it would be good also to pray it for her also.

All-Good and Merciful Lord, I know that any enduring happiness in my life dependeth upon my wholehearted love for Thee and upon mine actions according to Thy holy will in all things; wherefore, direct my soul, O God, and fill my heart. I seek to please Thee alone, for Thou art my Creator and my God. Preserve me from pride and self-love. Let reason, modesty and chastity adorn me. Idleness is hateful unto Thee and breedeth vice; grant unto me the inclination to be fruitful in labor, and bless Thou my work. Thy law commandeth that man and wife live in chaste matrimonial union; wherefore lead me, Holy Father, to this blessed calling not for the satisfaction of passions but unto the fulfillment of Thy commandment; for Thou hast said that it is not good that man should live alone and, having created woman as his helper, Thou blessest them to be fruitful and multiply that they may fill the earth. Hear my humble prayer, which ascendeth unto Thee from the depths of my heart: Grant unto me an honest and pious spouse that, through our love and harmony, together we may praise Thee, our Compassionate God, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

[traumacatholic]

Hi, I'm a university student, woman, carmelite, consecrated to Our Lady according to the method of Saint Luis Maria of Montfort. Please, could you pray for me fiding a relationship that is totally align with the chastity principles for lay members, if it is God's will?

I had to lie to someone saying I was taken when I'm not, in order to keep the chastity principle and to avoid this person keeping any hope and keep insisting, but I don't like lying, and I'm a bit afraid of the consequences of this lie. Please, could you pray for me?

(Also, saying the religious reasons could have hurt the person, so it was better to simply say "I already have someone").

May God Bless you ✝❤

I have to admit, that I don't fully know bout the chastity principles for lay members. But I will be praying for you. And I have included some prayers under the read more that you may find useful. Feel free to modify them where you see fit.

A prayer to find a spouse

All-good and merciful Lord, I know that any enduring happiness in my life dependeth upon my wholehearted love for Thee and upon keeping Thy commandments and obeying Thy Holy Will in all things. Wherefore, direct my steps, O God, and fill my heart with Thy Grace. I seek to please Thee alone, for Thou art my Creator and my God. Preserve me from pride and self-love. Let reason, modesty, and chastity adorn me. Deliver me from idleness which is hateful unto Thee and breedeth vice; grant me to be diligent and fruitful in labor, and bless thou my work. Thy law commandeth that husband and wife live in chaste matrimonial union. Wherefore lead me, Holy Father, to this blessed calling not for the satisfaction of the passions but unto the fulfilment of Thy commandment; for Thou hast said that it is not good that man should be alone and, having created woman as his companion, Thou didst bless them to be fruitful and multiply that they may fill the earth. Hear my humble prayer which ascendeth unto thee from the depths of my heart: Grant unto me an honest and pious spouse that, through our love and harmony, we nay together serve and praise Thee, our compassionate God, and do Thy will and bless Thine all-holy name, of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.

A prayer of single persons

O Lord, who hast set forth for us an example of perfect purity, strengthen me, I beseech Thee, when temptation doth beset me, and when strong passions seek to overwhelm me, that I may remain constant in virtue and innocent in thought, word, and deed, doing only such things that are well pleasing to Thee. Grant me growth in wisdom and understanding, that I may serve Thee in holiness all the days of my life, through the intercessions of Thine all-immaculate Mother and of all Thy Saints, especially my Patron Saint [name]. Amen.

A prayer for purity

O Master, Lord my God, in whose hands are my lots, help me according to Thy mercy and do not allow me to be destroyed by mine iniquities, nor permit me by my will to follow the desires of my flesh against my spirit. I was fashioned by Thee, do not forsake the works of Thy Hands. Turn not Thy Face away from me, have pity and do not despise me, neither forsake me, O Lord, for I am weak and it is to Thee, my protecting God, that I have fled to for refuge. Heal my soul, for I have sinned against Thee. Save me for the sake of Thy Mercy, for upon Thee have I cast myself from my very youth. May those who war against me be put to shame, and may those who seek to separate me from Thee through immodest acts, unseemly thoughts and unprofitable recollections be turned back. Chase far from me every impurity, that foul effluence of evil. For Thou alone art holy, Thou alone art mighty, Thou alone art immortal, having unfathomable power against all things, and it is through Thee that every power is given against the devil and his might. For unto Thee are due all glory, honour, and worship, to the Father and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.

Psalm 50

Have mercy on me, O God, according to Thy great mercy; and according to the multitude of Thy compassions blot out my transgression. Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I know mine iniquity, and my sin is ever before me. Against Thee only have I sinned and done this evil before Thee, that Thou mightest be justified in Thy words, and prevail when Thou art judged. For behold, I was conceived in iniquities, and in sins did my mother bear me. For behold, Thou hast loved truth; the hidden and secret things of Thy wisdom hast Thou made manifest unto me. Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be made clean; Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow. Thou shalt make me to hear joy and gladness; the bones that be humbled, they shall rejoice. Turn Thy face away from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Thy presence, and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation, and with Thy governing Spirit establish me. I shall teach transgressors Thy ways, and the ungodly shall turn back unto Thee. Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, Thou God of my salvation; my tongue shall rejoice in Thy righteousness. O Lord, Thou shalt open my lips, and my mouth shall declare Thy praise. For if Thou hadst desired sacrifice, I had given it; with whole-burnt offerings Thou shalt not be pleased. A sacrifice unto God is a broken spirit; a heart that is broken and humbled God will not despise. Do good, O Lord, in Thy good pleasure unto Sion, and let the walls of Jerusalem be builded. Then shalt Thou be pleased with a sacrifice of righteousness, with oblation and whole-burnt offerings. Then shall they offer bullocks upon Thine altar.

[musingsofmemory]

“Tell me every terrible thing you ever did, and let me love you anyway.”

Though its a quote from dear Edgar Allan Poe, it reminds me so much of Jesus.

“But God commandeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” -Romans 5:8

God knows all of our sins, past present and future and yet He still loves us. He died for our sins, our sins are what nailed Jesus to the cross, and yet still He loves us. He wants to save us. He loves us more than any human on earth ever could. I didn’t realize how my quote in my bio could remind me of Him so much until yesterday, but now it’s such a dear and gentle reminder.

God speaks to us through His word, primarily, and His Holy Spirit, but on occasion He will speak to us through other people.

[dandelion-stuff-and-fluff]

@mikkeneko I remember lots, actually, and many of them are very beautiful. But I am a deeply unserious person and so instead here is the (10 year old! HOLY SHIT) passage that once made me laugh so hard I choked on my coffee, scared my coworkers, and had to hide under my desk to finish the rest of the fic:

"I AM YUE, AND I COMMANDETH THOU TO CEASE THINE JABBERING!" the angelic figure snapped, brandishing a flaming sword in Kurogane's direction. His legs and feet did not seem to be entirely there, just trailing off into an indistinct smudge where they seemed to be rooted in Yamazaki's body. His wings rustled dramatically above his head, the feather tips scraping against the ceiling... and there, standing out starkly against Yue's soft blue-white plumage, was the hard-edged familiar outline of one of Sakura's feathers. "WHOA!" Syaoran yelled, as his eyes popped fully open for the first time. "It's Princess Sakura's feather! ...Holy crap, is that what feathers feel like to you? I... I've been violated! I don't think I'll ever feel clean again." "Mokona likes it!" she chirped. "It feels warm and tingly, deeeeep inside!" "I hath gone to great efforts to maketh sure not to permanently harm any of mine host bodies," Yue said, shooting a dark glare at the slumbering form of Yamazaki, "but thee makes me want to maketh an exception." "What the hell is wrong with this guy's speech?" Kurogane said. "Is that a dialect, or a speech impediment, or what?" "I don't quite know. I'm not sure some of those words are even real," Fai said thoughtfully. "Syaoran, are you sure that Mokona's translation spell is working correctly?" "How would I even know? Besides, I'm finding it a little hard to focus right now," Syaoran snapped, "since I just got a magical champagne enema."

Anonymously - or not - tell me what passage, fic, line of narration, or anything you remember me by as a writer.

REPENTANCE

Written By Pastor Tamuno Solomon

Memory verse: Acts.3:19 "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be

blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence ofthe Lord;"

WHAT IS REPENTANCE?

Repentance is total turning away from all known sin. It

means to stop doing evil and start doing good. To repent means radically abandoning the broad road.

It is turning around from sin and self-pleasing lifestyle unto holy living.

The sinner has to

come to Jesus Christ to be set free from sin.

To come to Christ means that the sinner turns his

back on the world and forsake all cherished sins and turns to Christ.

The sinner who comes to

Christ for salvation must forsake all sinful pleasures and worldly companions and receive

Him as Savior and Lord.

Acts 13: 19; Ezekiel 14:6; Isaiah 55:7 Luke 24:46-47.

WHY WE MUSTREPENT

1. We have to repent because the bible says "For all have sinned, and come short of the

glory of God;" Rom.3:23

2. BECAUSE GOD COMMANDS ALL MEN TO REPENT

Acts 17:30 "And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men

everywhere to repent:"

3. IT IS NOT THE WILL OF GOD FOR ANY ONE TO PERISH

2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but

is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to

repentance."

4. TO ESCAPE THE DAMINATION OF HELL FIRE

Matthew 23:33 "Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation ofhell?"

Luke 13:31 tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."

Romans 13:2 "Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God:

and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation."

5.  DELIVERANCE FROM SATAN, SICKNESS AND DEATH

Ezekiel 33:11 "Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of

the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil

ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?" Exodus 15:26, Romans 6:16

EVIDENCE OF REPENTANCE

i.  Godly Sorrow leads to Repentance:Sorrow for sins is often associated with repentance

but it is such sorrow which causes an abhorrence or hatred for sin. It leads the sinner to turn

away from sin with all his heart.2 Corithians 7:10-11; Psalm 38:18; Psalm 51:17

ii. Right Attitude Towards Sin: When the penitent manifests the proper attitudes towards

sin it is an evidence of true repentance. No sinner can be said to have repented who treats

sin with levity. Sin is exceedingly sinful.

RESTITUTION

iii. Restitution-An essential part of repentance: God requires, so far as it lies within your

power, that you make right every wrong against others. Restitution, or a straightening

up of the past, is therefore absolutely necessary to and essential part of, true

repentance.

Ezekiel 33: 14-15; Leviticus 6:2-5; Numbers 5:5-8; Matthew 5:23-24; Acts19;19; Numbers 33:52;

Luke 19:8

Until a sinner repents, he or she is outside the kingdom of God because entrance into the

kingdom requires repentance.

He must come, therefore, throwing himself upon the unfailing

mercy and love of Christ who paid the price of his redemption.

He must place his hope of

salvation on the finished work at Calvary, stand upon God's word and accept the gift of His

love and pardon.

He needs to believe in the Lord Jesus, renounce his sins by confessing them and surrendering

totally to the Lord.

The Bible has given us enough light on how to live an acceptable

life before God and make heaven ultimately.

There is no hope of salvation for anyone who

blindly follows religion without taking heed to the doctrines ofthe Bible.

There must be a definite day or time when a man has consciously decided to forsake his sins

and follows the Savior.

One must be born of the Spirit and Water.

2 Corithians 7:10, Luke 18:10-14,

Acts 2:37-39,
