Repentance is an essential step in paving the way for God’s kingdom. Any false teachings that suggest repentance is merely a feeling of remorse or a decision to change one’s ways are nothing but deceptions. In reality, repentance requires acknowledging and removing the tyranny of self-will and submitting to the authority and lordship of Jesus. By demolishing the rubble of our own plans, ambitions, and control, we create a suitable environment for God’s kingdom to reign without any competition from other demigods.
