Acts 20:28

“From that time on Jesus began to preach, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near’”.(Matthew 4:17)
This statement is made at the beginning of Jesus’ ministry, after his temptations with the devil. Jesus started His ministry with the word people had heard John the Baptist say, “Repent.” This message is the same today as it was then. The word “repent” means to turn around, go the other way. Becoming a follower of Jesus means turning away from our self-centeredness and “self’ control and turning our lives over to Jesus’ direction and control. Living under Jesus’ Lordship is not always easy or popular, but it is always worth it! It will bring peace, blessing, and most importantly eternal life. If you’ve never surrendered your heart to Jesus – talk to Pastor Doreen or one of the Deacons – you won’t regret it.
