Repentance

<p><em>Except you repent you will all likewise perish. </em>- Luke 13:5</p><p>It is indifference that leaves people alone and allows them to go their own way. It is love tender love that warns them and raises the cry of alarm. The cry of Fire! Fire! at midnight might sometimes rudely harshly and unpleasantly startle a person out of his sleep but who would complain if that cry was the means of saving his life? The words <em>Except you repent you will all likewise perish</em> might at first seem stern and severe but they are words of love and they could be the means of delivering precious souls from hell.</p><ol><li>The <strong>nature </strong>of repentance: What is it? </li><li>The <strong>necessity </strong>of repentance: Why is repentance needful?</li><li>The <strong>encouragements </strong>to repentance: What is there to lead people to repent? </li></ol>
