"Unless you repent you will all perish as they did.""

Jesus calls us to repent so that we might bear good fruit.

God’s ways are not our ways. In order to bear good fruit, we must allow him to shape and mold our lives. This was not a new message that Jesus shared, but an affirmation of the covenant that God made with his people from the beginning. God is faithful - and so we are called to be be. When we stray and wither or produce bad fruit, we have the opportunity to repent and try again.
