Acts 17:30
In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he
commands all people everywhere to repent.
Romans 3:25
God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith
in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his
forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished—
Luke 24:47
And repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in
his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
Titus 2:11-12
11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to
all men.
12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly
passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present
age,
Acts 14:16
In the past, he let all nations go their own way.
1 Peter 4:3
For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans
choose to do—living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and
detestable idolatry.

2 Corinthians 7:10
Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and
leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.
Romans 3:23
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
He Leaks!
A country church was having their annual revival meeting. On
the first night the preacher preached a message about repentance and the need
to return to the Lord. At the altar call, a man came down the aisle saying
"Fill me Lord, fill me".
The next night the preacher challenged the congregation with
the need to totally surrender their lives to Christ in complete obedience.
Again the altar call was extended; like the night before the same man came down
the aisle saying "Fill me Lord, fill me".
The third night of the revival preacher warned his
congregation of the evils of sin and urged the congregation to live lives of
holiness. Again at the invitation was made to give one's life to Christ, the
same man came up the aisle saying "Fill me Lord, fill me".
To which someone in the back of the church yelled;
"Don't do it Lord, He leaks!"
The truth of the matter is we all leak from time to time. We
all lose our way, we tend to lose our first love or we wade in the pool of the
lukewarm.
