To repent means: TO STOP SINNING. It is because of sin that the wrath of God comes on men and that causes sickness, pain and calamity. We read in John 5 of the lame man at the bath of Bethesda, Jesus healed him and then afterwards He said to him John 5:14 “Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, "Behold, you have become well; DO NOT SIN ANYMORE, so that NOTHING WORSE MAY BEFALL YOU." Jesus never condemned or judged anybody, but He did say: GO SIN NO MORE. If we keep on sinning, we will fall under the judgment of God. If we disobey Jesus, we will end up in eternal hell.
We read the words of John the Baptist in John 3:36 "He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who DOES NOT OBEY THE SON shall not see life, but the WRATH OF GOD abides on him." If we keep on sinning, the wrath of God abides on us. If we BELIEVE IN JESUS we OBEY HIM, we REPENT. Jesus said: GO SIN NO MORE. If we keep on sinning, we do not have the hope of eternal life. Jesus said: "GO SIN NO MORE."
May Jesus bless you.
