“Question & Answer”

Question:
What opportunity for repentance is offered to the people of God?
Answer:
God offers everyone the opportunity to repent and live life spiritually in union with Him. Repentance begins with God’s calling, and He gives us the opportunity and an open door to return to Him when we have strayed from a righteous path. Suppose God does not execute His wrath and justice immediately against a person. In that case, He allows that person an opportunity to continue to live longer so that grace can work in his life and lead him to repentance. Repentance is a call to absolute surrender to the will and purposes of God.
