Repent to Enter the Kingdom
The sins listed below are specifically called out by either the Messiah or His apostles as sins that cause a person to be defiled or prevent one from entering the Kingdom of God. This is in line with our Law of Moses which states there would be a Prophet and Moses commanded us that the words of that Prophet would be required of us (Deuteronomy 18). By not meeting these requirements set forth by the Messiah, we are not keeping the Law of Moses.
Many people have been made to believe that it is impossible to turn away from all sin or that everything that you do could be a sin. This deception from Satan causes people to rationalize their sin with thoughts like, “Well, God wouldn’t require me to do something impossible, he just wants me to try my best” whatever that means to the individual thinking it. Instead, the Word is objective and not based on subjectivity. Even our thoughts and feelings are judged by God. The behaviors listed below are signs that you have not submitted yourself to God.
