A heartfelt welcome to our newest listeners from Georgia and Canada. A big shout-out to everyone who listens to our podcast — thank you for tuning in and sharing time with us. We pray God’s manifold blessing upon you and your loved ones.

In this episode of Contending for the Faith, Bishops Ronald and LaCreece Roston explore the urgent call to "Repent or Perish." We discuss the difference between mere regret and godly sorrow, what true repentance looks like, and why turning to God is essential for restoration.

We examine the consequences of unrepentant sin, including spiritual separation, continued bondage to sin, the hardening of the heart, and the risk of eternal judgment. The episode also addresses backsliding—how believers can drift away—and God’s promise to heal and restore those who return.

The hosts review differing views on whether salvation can be lost, emphasizing two core truths: genuine faith produces lasting change, and God’s grace relentlessly seeks to restore those who repent. Practical steps such as confession, turning from sinful ways, and pursuing spiritual growth are highlighted as paths back to fellowship with God.

Join the Rostons with your Bible and notebook as they offer scripture-based teaching, pastoral guidance, and encouragement to maintain holiness. For further study, they mention their books and YouTube video library and invite listeners to keep engaging with all segments of the show.

Thank you for being part of our community of listeners. We close with a prayer and a promise to continue the conversation next time on the importance of the biblical feasts. Until then, Shalom.
