"The time has come", he said.
"The kingdom of God has come near.
Repent and believe the good news!"
Mark 1:15 NIV
Repent.
If we've ever heard this word it's usually been about turning from something, giving something up
But here it's about turning towards.
Change your thinking
Change your heart direction
Change your purpose
Towards what?
The Kingdom is near.
How near?
In front of you
The Kingdom is not a place or even a state of being, but a person
The Kingdom is near
Jesus says it's me.
I'm right here
Close
Turn towards
Orient your heart towards me
What you're looking for, seeking after, hoping for, it's me.
"I am the Way, the Truth, the Life"
Today he says the same thing.
The Kingdom is near.
It's me
I'm close
Turn towards
Orient your heart towards me
