The Gospel of God: Crown of Thorns and Crown of Gold
The Gospel of God: the promise of the eschatological permanent physical manifestation of God on the earth in sovereign power. [Jude 14-15]
Mark 1:14-15 – The Three Pillars of the Gospel of God
- The Time is Fulfilled
- The Kingdom of God has come near
- Repent and believe the gospel
Repentance is God's requirement for both sinners and saints to escape the temporal judgment of God.
In summary, repentance is for believers and unbelievers. It can occur before or after regeneration. It can even aid a person in coming to faith in Christ. However, repentance is not a condition of eternal life.
Luke 3:7ff
He said therefore to the crowds that came out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bear fruits in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham. Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” And the crowds asked him, “What then shall we do?” And he answered them, “Whoever has two tunics is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise.” Tax collectors also came to be baptized and said to him, “Teacher, what shall we do?” And he said to them, “Collect no more than you are authorized to do.” Soldiers also asked him, “And we, what shall we do?” And he said to them, “Do not extort money from anyone by threats or by false accusation, and be content with your wages.”
