Welcome to the Jesus Image Podcast.

Good morning everyone.

You look happy and shiny and grateful to belong to Jesus.

I don't know about you, but I can't think of another reason to exist than belong to Jesus. Amen. Before I get into today's

teaching, I'm so excited to teach. I really believe the Lord spoke to me last night. I had a

beautiful, beautiful time and just experienced with the Lord yesterday afternoon.

And I knew today would be great.

I thought that would carry over into the Gator game and it did not.

I'm starting to wonder if he cares about sports at all.

Today I'm going to talk to you about repentance.

And that should excite you because it is a door into the joy-filled life.

That is actually a title and a saying from Mother Bessilea.

I think there's a lot of misunderstanding around repentance.

For some reason, it freaks people out.

There are some who believe it's not needed anymore.

That one just got me going for some reason.

But there are some who believe, there are some who have an improper definition of it, so

it can become very religious, it can become very cumbersome, it can become very Jesus-less, void of the person of Jesus. Remember, we preach

Christ and Him crucified, not just mere crucifixion. You've heard me say that many times.

If we preach a Jesus who's not been crucified, by the way, it's not the right Jesus.

We preach a Jesus who has been wounded.

And if we preach crucifixion without Jesus, now we preach religion.
