We need to be careful to not turn walking the isle during altar call and water baptism into a ritual to avoid eternal punishment.

The message John preached is the same message Jesus preached. He said “Bear fruits worthy of repentance”

The message is to repent! Acts 1:8 says 'Repent, be baptized, and be filled with the Holy Spirit"

repent:

to feel such sorrow for sin or fault as to be disposed to change one's life for the better; be penitent.

I like this a lot. It truly is the heart of the matter isn't? God weighs the thoughts and intents of the heart...there is no fooling Him.

He wants us to be "real" with Him...then He will be real with us. Do folks want to be "safe" or "changed" ??? ....Jesus said we must be born again...that's in the kingdom...there is no in between.... we are either in or out..


Isaiah 1
18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:

20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
