It is very, very important to repent. You cannot repent and think you are going to heaven. Repentance mean also no longer I but Christ in me. You have to turn away from your wicked ways. Turn away from your old life. You need to say, "Lord, I am sorry, please forgive me." You need to invite Jesus into your life. You can only enter the Kingdom of God, God's way and not the world's way. The problem is: Are you willing to give up your old life? Are you willing to change? Are you willing to lose friends, family? Are you willing to live for Jesus? Are you willing to lose your life to follow Jesus? You need to turn away from "I, " Are you willing to change from "I. to Jesus? You cannot compromise. You cannot do both, the Jesus way and the world's way. You have to choose and turn back to the Father's house. Acts 3:19: "Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out." Acts 2:38: "And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." Matthew 3:8: "Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turned to God." How many times did the disciples say repent, repent and repent in the New Testament? Repent and turn back to Jesus, then you are saved and born again.
