Daily Devotions: The Proof of Repentance - March 16, 2025

Today's Scripture: Luke 3:7-8

Many confuse remorse with true repentance. Remorse is feeling sorry for sin, but repentance leads to real change. Judas regretted betraying Jesus but never repented, while true repentance transforms lives.

John the Baptist emphasized this in Luke 3:8 (NLT): “Prove by the way that you live that you have repented.” He urged people to demonstrate repentance through generosity, integrity, and righteousness. He told the crowd to share with the needy, tax collectors to end corruption, and soldiers to avoid extortion.

Today, many claim to be Christians but continue living as before, merely adapting to church culture. True faith is not about appearances but about a transformed life. Do we just attend church, or do we truly live for Christ?
