A sermon on repentance doesn’t have to be formal. It just needs to focus on the truth.
For my upcoming sermon on repentance, there three main points I hope to focus on.
First, I want to address some of the bad, false teachings on repentance that are out there and have been encountering of late.
Next, I want to spend some time talking about how not repenting (through either refusing to repent, or not knowing how to fully repent) damages the lives and walks of many believers.
And finally, I’ll wrap up with explaining a proper, Biblical understanding of repentance and its role in the life of believers.
It’s an ambitious outline, but I hope I’ll be able to cover all three points enough in the time I have to get some truth out there. L-RD willing, that will happen.

Can you combine the first 2? Like how bad teaching on repentance derails people’s walk with the Lord and causes trouble?
I’m working on the sermon as we speak. While this was an outline of the three points I want to hit, they will tie together nicely.
Looking forward to the finished product. I didn’t realize you had more than a week to write one of those… I’m beginning to see how your essays get so long, you go sneaking around taking a month to compose those replies we get when we ask you about something…
Hey, I quit smoking!! *YAY*!!!
Meg,
I don’t always get this long. I had plenty of advanced notice on this sermon… I got over two weeks of notice from Stan.
But one time, I had less than 48 hours notice.
And I had it done in four!
As for the forum replies over at PB’s, those are usually just me sitting down and staying up way too late replying and researching on the fly, when I probably ought to be sleeping, LOL.
