Repentence

  1. Introduction There is a difference between the way both Jesus and the apostles preached repentance, compared to how modern reformed and pentecostal theology teaches repentance. Many people say that repentance is mandatory to the preaching of the gospel. Yet in Biblical evangelism of Gentiles we found this not to be the case. So how is repentance defined, or what is the meaning of repent? 2. Defining Repentance The definition of repent in the original Greek is the word metanoia, which simply means “ Change the Way you Think!” . That’s it, nothing more, nothing less. It does not mean “turn away from your sins, and turn to God”. Although in the long term it will be the outcome of repenting, through the transforming process of salvation (See Transformation Through Salvat https://awakening.co.nz/teachings-transformation-through-salvation/ ion). 3. The Message of Repentance by John the Baptist This is the first New Testament mention of the word repent. “Repent, for t...

DEUTERONOMY 31:6 FROM THE COMMENTARY (6) “BE STRONG AND OF A GOOD COURAGE, FEAR NOT, NOR BE AFRAID OF THEM: FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD, HE IT IS WHO DOES GO WITH YOU; HE WILL NOT FAIL YOU, NOR FORSAKE YOU.” The overview is: 1. Moses was a type of the Law, and the Law can never possess the land, because of the feebleness of man’s moral nature, all brought about by the Fall; only Grace can inherit the Promise (Gal. 3:18). 2. Joshua was chosen by the Lord to lead Israel into the Promised Land. He is a Type of Christ. Actually, the Jewish name of Jesus was “Joshua.” It means “Saviour.” Jesus has done for us what we could not do for ourselves, He became our Substitute, and our identification with Him guarantees us His Victory (Jn. 14:20). 3. While Israel was the instrument, it was the Lord Who actually destroyed the enemies mentioned in Verse 4, as He Alone can do such! 4. The Sixth Verse gives us a tremendous Promise! To be sure, this Promise holds true even unto this moment, and even greater (Heb. 8:6). MOSES Few men in history have equaled the great Law-Giver, Moses. He stands alone in many respects. If anyone could be said to be similar as it regards the New Covenant, it would have been Paul, but other than that, no one even comes close to matching this man’s character, his courage, his consecration, and above all his faithfulness as it regards the Lord. As stated, he stood in a category all to himself. When the great Law-Giver used the phrase, “I can no more go out and come in,” he wasn’t speaking of physical infirmity due to age. He was merely meaning that his life’s work was finished. The Lord had told him that his days were very numbered; consequently, he is, in essence, giving final instructions to Israel. INSTRUCTIONS First he tells Israel that the Lord will be with them, and despite the fact that he (Moses) will no longer be present. In other words, Moses will die, but the Lord will not die. And then he tells these people that the Lord will destroy the nations that stand before them, and that they need not fear these people whomever they may be, or how numerous they might be. He then tells them that their new leader will be Joshua. He reminds them of the great victories won over the kings of the Amorites, Sihon, and Og, and let that be an example as to what the Lord will do in the future to those who oppose them. THE PROMISE And now we have the Promise, and what a Promise it is! It is as follows, and it holds as true for us today as it did then, and even more so, simply because we have a Better Covenant based on Better Promises. The Holy Spirit through him said: A. “Be strong”: Anyone who serves the Lord, who follows the Lord, who obeys the Lord, is “strong.” We are strong because the Lord is with us, exactly as He said He would be. In fact, the Scripture says, “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them (some of the Christians of John’s day were tempted to believe the doctrine that denigrated the Cross, but had overcome that temptation): because greater is He (the Holy Spirit) Who is in you, than he (Satan) who is in the world” (I Jn. 4:4). The modern Believer must ever understand that our strength is not in ourselves, not at all! Our strength is in the Holy Spirit, Who makes it available to us upon our Faith in Christ and what Christ has done for us at the Cross (Acts 1:8). Strength and power are never a problem with the Lord, with each Member of the Godhead being, in effect, Almighty! The difficulty is in getting that strength to us. It is done strictly and solely by and through what Christ has done for us at the Cross. Even the Believer being baptized with the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:4), which will give such a Believer power in many areas, will not be sufficient to overcome sin, if such a Believer has his faith in anything other than the Cross of Christ. It must be remembered that the Apostle Paul was Saved and baptized with the Holy Spirit when he was suffering his terrible defeats as recorded in Acts, Chapter 7. It was not until Paul learned and understood the meaning of the New Covenant, which was the meaning of the Cross, that he understood victory in Jesus (Gal. 1:12). B. “Good courage”: The word courage in the Hebrew as given here is “amats,” and means “be courageous, steadfastly minded, strengthened.” Once we understand where our strength comes from, then it’s easy to be of good courage. Due to the fact that the Lord is fighting for us, we know what the outcome will be, before we reach the outcome. C. “Fear not, nor be afraid of them”: Almost every time the Lord speaks to man, he tells him to “fear not,” or words to that effect! The type of “fear” here addressed, is not the healthy type of fear that every Believer ought to have as it regards fear of God. This is a fear that enslaves people, and because it envisions defeat instead of victory, sickness instead of health, death instead of life! In effect, the Lord through Moses is telling Israel that the enemy that will come against them will be powerful, strong, possibly overwhelmingly superior in numbers, better equipped, at least as far as natural equipment was concerned, but still, the command is, “fear not, nor be afraid of them.” It is the same presently! Satan comes against us “as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.” And if the Believer has his Faith anchored solidly in Christ and the Cross, he can then expect the help of the Holy Spirit, and need not fear nor be afraid. The reasons are obvious. They are as follows: D. “The LORD is with us”: The great Apostle Paul would later say, “What shall we then say to these things? (This refers to the suffering presently endured in comparison to ‘the Glory which shall be revealed in us.’) If God be for us(should have been translated, ‘since God is for us’), who can be against us? (The idea is, it doesn’t really matter who is against us, if God is for us. That should be overly obvious!) E. “The LORD will not fail us, nor forsake us”: In other words, we are told here, that we can depend on what the Lord has said. No matter what it may look like, no matter the situation, no matter the odds, “He will not fail us, nor forsake us.” As stated, what a Promise!
