01.04.2016 New Testament: Matt 4.17

To read the Bible in a year, read Matthew 4 on January 4, In the year of our Lord 2016

By Don Ruhl

After Jesus endured the temptations of Satan that followed forty days and nights of fasting, Jesus went right to work, doing what His Father sent Him to do,

From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matthew 4.17). 

We cannot enter the kingdom of heaven unless we repent. How can we take the sins of Earth with us into the kingdom of heaven? The Kingdom of Heaven is a kingdom of holiness. Therefore, we must absolutely be holy!
