The Call of the Kingdom is a Call to Repentance.
Matthew 3:1-3
Application: Signs of a Repentant Heart.
A Heart of Repentance is:
1. A Heart of Honesty.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10:Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[ 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
2. A Heart of Humility and A Heart that is Unashamed.
Luke 3:3: and He went into all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
3. A Heart of Obedience and a Heart that Bears fruit.
Matt 3:8: Bear fruit in keeping with repentance.
Luke 3:10-14: “What should we do then?” the crowd asked.11 John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.”12 Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?”13 “Don’t collect any more than you are required to,” he told them.14 Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?”He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely—be content with your pay.”
4. A Heart that Understands God's great love for you.
Matt 3:11-12: “I baptize you with water for repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 12 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor and gather his wheat into the barn, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.”
What Blocks a Repentant Heart?
1. Fear
1 John 4:15-18: If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. 16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. 17 This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. 18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
2. Pride
3. Neglect
