Three Terrifying Examples of False Repentance

We understand there are faithful and false ways to present Christ’s message of redemption — but did you ever stop to think there could be a false way to respond to it, too?

Jesus is more than a ‘buddy’ you call up when you’ve got nothing better to do. He is the Living God.

To hear the pleas of some pencil-neck pastors presenting a paltry gospel, you might think Jesus is like the last kid in the line-up when middle school kids pick teams, or a guy on The Bachelor hoping he will be the one picked by the girl.

God is no beggar. He’s not some desperate salesman offering end-of-season products, slashing prices so that somebody — anybody — will take surplus inventory off of his hands rather than take a loss.

That’s a neutered view of God and His message that cannot be found ANYWHERE in the Bible.

What you WILL find is a God who calls for repentance as the good and most basic duty of any faithful citizen of his kingdom. If you habitually blow off His calls to repentance, you need to rethink your citizenship of His kingdom. You’re NOT on the solid ground you think you are.

And repentance isn’t just a card you can keep in your back pocket, either. You don’t get to prioritize other ‘more important’ things until a more opportune time to get right with God. If you believe there ARE more important things, you’re in more danger than you realize. That was the whole point of Jesus parable of the man who tore down barns to build bigger ones. (Luke 12:13-21)

Don’t think you can just make a decision some day in he unforseen future to stop stiff-arming and ‘pick him for your team’. It doesn’t work like that. We’ve got examples from scripture of chuckleheads who learned that lesson the hard way.
