The Mark – No. 2 Repent

The commands of Jesus are the Mark, the target for the perfect life. To aim for and to hit the Mark is to conform to the image and likeness of God. To ignore, neglect, or miss the Mark is to sin. The commands provide stepping stones through earthly life, upon which the child of God survives tempests and deflects the boomeranging darts of pride. Adhering to the Mark aspiring immortals gain victory.

 

 [Jesus said]…repent, and believe in the good news.

 Matthew 3:2, Mark 1:15, Mark 6:12, Luke 24:47

Jesus Christ commands us to evolve, to change our way of being. Visualize a rosebud that opens to become fully itself. Likewise, open your mind to the clear and unambiguous way to be Christ-like. Repentance is the medicine that opens your heart. In the course of learning the commands of Jesus each and every one of us will see that we need to change, to repent. The good news is that Christ points to the way to immortal life. Believe in this. The fragrance of the rose in full bloom delights everyone around it, so too will your new life delight those in your orbit. Peace.
