*Repentance - Door of Mercy*


Text:

Matthew 3:2; 4:17

Acts 3:19


Do you know that man has been found guilty of sin by a Holy God, and sentenced to death?

If he is to escape this eternal death and be eternally saved, he must receive God's mercy.

*Mercy, in this respect , is God withholding from man the penalty which he deserves*

But God does not bestow His mercy on people without condition, even though salvation is free without price, and cannot be earned.

*The condition upon which God grants mercy is repentance*


*All Have Sinned*

All have strayed. None righteous. All have sinned.

Romans 3:23; 3:10

Isaiah 53:6

Ezekiel 18:4

Wouldn't this also include you? Your soul, your life belongs to God. The man or woman, who does not recognize God as the master of his life lives in disobedience and sin.


*Sin Separates*

God is without sin, therefore He is holy, righteous and just. God says sin must be judged.

Ecclesiasis 12:14

There is a great gulf between you and God. Unless you find the way which spans that gulf between a holy God and sinful man, you shall die an eternal death!

Luke 16:26

Isaiah 59:1-2

Romans 6:23

*There is a way - there is hope for you!*

THE ROYAL HOUSE OF TROY

 *THE ROYAL HOUSE OF TROY* The traditional founder of Troy's famed royal house was Dardanus, a few generations prior to Tros and Ilus: "Dardanus, in Greek legend, the son of Zeus and the Pleiad Electra, mythical founder of Dardania on the Hellespont (the nearby strait separating Dardania from Hellas or Greece now called the Dardanelles). He was the ancestor of the Dardans of the Troad (the region surrounding Troy)... "According to tradition ... Dardanus fled from Arcadia (in the middle of Mycenaean Greece) across the sea to Samothrace (a northern Aegean island). When that island was visited by a flood, he crossed over to the Troad ... Being hospitably received by Teucer (ruler of Phrygia), he married Teucer's daughter Bateia and became the founder of the royal house of Troy"  ("Dardanus, "Encyclopedia Britannica, Micropaedia, 1985, Vol.3, p.884). In his acclaimed *Story of Civilization*, historian Will Durant writes: "Who were the Trojans? An Egypt

WILL JESUS FIND FAITH?

  *WILL JESUS FIND FAITH?* *In times of crisis more people turn to God, yet usually for only a short time. Will we break the pattern?* Jesus posed a startling question to His disciples in *Luke 18:8: "When the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?"* Faith in God is diminishing day by day, year by year. Statisticians and researchers have produced many reports showing the decline of faith in America and the Western world. When a crisis strikes our world - be it a war, a terrorist attack or a health pandemic - we often see short-lived return to faith. More prayers go up to God for a short while. Recent Pew research polling has found that most people are praying more during the coronavirus outbreak than before. But the pattern we've seen before is that as a great crisis is resolved and fades, life goes back to normal. Churches are mostly empty again. What are people thinking, and does it matter? Why should we be concerned about what society at large believ
