MEMORY VERSE: “For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.” – 2 Corinthians 7:10

BIBLE TEXT: Ezekiel 18:27-32 (KJV)

27 Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul alive.

28 Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.

29 Yet saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel, are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?

30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord God. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.

LESSON INTRODUCTION: Sin entered the world through Adam along with death which is the penalty for sin – Romans 5:12. The guilt and penalty of sin has been transferred from generation to generation to all descendant of Adam; that is, all mankind.

According to Romans 5:23 all have sinned and come short of God’s glory. The soul that sins shall die Ezekiel 18:4, so all deserve to die. God however in his infinite mercy and love for mankind has made a way of escape from death by sending His son Jesus Christ to die for the forgiveness of sins. John 3:16, Matthew 1:21. This salvation and its benefits can only be accessed through repentance and turning to Jesus. Act.5:30-31.

LESSON OUTLINE ONE

WHAT IS REPENTANCE?

  1. To repent is to have a change of mind, a change of heart or a change of direction.
  2. It is like a driver going in a wrong direction who suddenly realizes his error, make a U-turn and faces the right direction. The prodigal son who abandoned his farther in Luke15:17-21 changed his mind and returned to the father.
  3. To repent is to turn away from sin and turn to righteousness.
    Zacchaeus repented of his sinful ways and Jesus confirmed that salvation had come into his house. Luke 19:8-9
  4. To repent is to turn away from serving the devil and letting Jesus Christ become the master. Saul the persecutor of the church – Act 8:3, repented and became Paul the servant of Jesus Christ. Romans 1:1

LESSONS OUTLINE TWO

RESULTS OF REPENTANCE

  1. Forgiveness of sins. Acts 5:31
  2. God gives a new heart. Ezekiel. 36:26
  3. Transformation. Ephesians 4:22-24
  4. Deliverance from woes and curses. Galatians 3:13-14
  5. Access to exceeding great and precious promises. 2 Peter 1:4
  6. Having access to new nature and new abilities 2 corinthians 5:17

ACTIVITY: List few names of those that refused the offer of salvation in the Bible

SUMMARY: When you repent from your sin, you would be referred to His scene (divine location of His mercy).

CONCLUSION: The person that refuse to repent will perish – Luke 13:5. However, God does not want anyone to perish but that all should come to repentance – 2 Peter 3:9. That is why Luke 15:10 says that Angels rejoice in heaven over one sinner that repents.

Therefore repentance should not be delayed. Repent NOW!!!

  2. Farther, help us to bear fruits of repentance in Jesus name.
