Question is, who were commanded to REPENT?
Who were commanded to turn back to a previous belief system?
The answer is the Jewish people were the ones to repent (turn away from) from Judaism to Christianity!
The Bible is clear the Jewish people will only repent after 2/3rds of them are destroyed by the Antichrist and the remaining will repent at the Second Advent of Jesus Christ!
But that does not have to be your way!
Act_17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
You can repent of whatever you believe in right now, and become a Christian today!
It’s simple as pie! Well pie is a little more complicated!
Simply BELIEVE the GOSPEL!
Joh 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Else into the Lake of Fire for you!
Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
