This pandemic is just getting worse and worse,

Lots of people feel like the end times are upon us, and they're frightened!

What would you say we should be focusing on as believers through all of this?

We have to repent to the Lord so that He'll protect and keep us safe from the pandemic.

Back in the Age of Law, what did the Ninevites do when faced with their own plague?

A prophet told them God was going to destroy Nineveh.

From the king and nobles down to the commoners,

everyone put on sacks and ashes and knelt to repent before God.

Only then did Jehovah God change His mind and spare Nineveh in the end.

that Nineveh's king led his subjects in repentance to God.

- That was something special. - It really was.

So now that we're all living in the last days,

why haven't we seen any world leaders act like king of Nineveh,

leading their people in repentance to God?

Right? Why do you think people living in the last days don't know

that God rules all and our fate is in His hands?

So why would they think that He rules our fates then?

They really don't believe that only God can forgive our sins,

that confessing and repenting to Him is the only way to escape disaster.

they isolate, stay at home, shut inside, and do nothing at all.

"God sees all" and "Heaven has a plan for us all in the end"?

why do they deny God's existence and rule?

Because they don't believe in God at all, Brother Li,

they wouldn't repent because of a pandemic.

All they can do is quarantine, sit at home and do nothing at all.

But we believe in the Lord, so we're different.

we make sure to pray, confess, and repent twice as much.

Doing this will guarantee we will be safe from the disaster.

But you say confessing all our sins to the Lord guarantees nothing will happen to us.

Is confession the same thing as repentance?

We pray and confess to the Lord, and then He forgives us of our sins.

It's true that our sins are forgiven through our faith,

but is that really the same thing as true repentance?

but we continue to lie, commit sins, and can't practice the Lord's words.

So, prayer and confession to God doesn't count as true repentance, then?

If that's the only thing we do without putting His words into practice,

And remember what Matthew 7:21–23 says?

What do you think about these Bible verses?

Has everyone who cries "Lord, Lord" really repented?

You know some people just confess without actually repenting,

But people who are humble, patient, who can discipline their body,

and who take up a cross to follow the Lord,

So that's what you think true repentance is.

It's not wrong per se. I think you're just a little off.

Are you saying that true repentance is just behaving yourself well?

The Pharisees explained the Scriptures every day

and traveled all over to preach the gospel.

but when the Lord Jesus came and did His work,

They condemned Him and helped the Romans put Him to death on the cross.

Why did the Lord curse them with the seven woes?
