"Do you want to get well? It wasn’t just a question for the man – but also for the religious folks. Church, we've got to repent. That word repent, it's a big church word. It just means changing your mind into alignment with Jesus. Repentance is basically saying, "Jesus, you’re always right. I want to think like you do so that it will lead me to live like you do." Repentance is a part of becoming a Jesus follower. We’ve mentioned that the last couple of weeks. Repentance is part of the process of becoming a Jesus Follower, just like belief, confession, and baptism. But we don’t just repent one time in life. It’s not a one-time event. As a Jesus follower, every time we identify a place where we are in conflict with Jesus, we acknowledge that we are wrong and we begin working on being right. So, we repent. If you're guilty of judging people who are coming into a relationship with Jesus … if you see yourself as a gatekeeper to Jesus … if you place more emphasis on church behavior than you do a relationship with Jesus, I'm calling you to repent. Make it right. We had better seek compassion in the same way that Jesus did. And, if we're unwilling, then don’t be surprised when Jesus doesn’t have much compassion for you."
