🔥 Episode Description:

In this episode of The Disciple Life, we begin Lesson 5 of the Entering Into the Kingdom of God series with the first and most essential step in salvation: Repentance.

We revisit the foundational truth that while the Law could only cover sin, the blood of Jesus Christ brings complete remission. His death, burial, and resurrection opened the way for us to be saved, delivered from sin, and live in victory—but how do we enter into that redemption? The answer begins at the brazen altar of repentance.

Through biblical insights, typology, and powerful scripture, we’ll uncover:

• Why repentance must precede baptism and spiritual rebirth

• What true repentance looks like—more than sorrow, it’s surrender

• How pride hinders repentance, and humility invites revival

• Why repentance is not just a one-time act but a daily commitment

📖 Key Topics Covered:

• Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus: “Except a man be born again…” (John 3:3–6)

• What it means to die spiritually before being born again

• The difference between godly conviction and satanic condemnation

• The Law of First Mention and how it reveals the heart of repentance

• Lessons from David, Saul, and others on the blessings and dangers of repentance

• The Tabernacle’s brazen altar as a symbol of dying to self

• 🔥 Repentance is a gift, not a punishment—an invitation, not a rejection

🙏 Final Thought:

Repentance opens the door to everything God wants to give you. It’s the place where death turns to life, guilt turns to grace, and brokenness becomes beauty. God is not waiting to punish you—He’s waiting to restore you. Don’t delay. Repent today. The Kingdom is at hand.
