00:00:01.110 --> 00:00:03.810
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:03.810 --> 00:00:07.860
of the God called partners
of Renner ministries.
3
00:00:07.860 --> 00:00:11.130
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.130 --> 00:00:14.670
and your mind where the
word is the anchor in
5
00:00:14.670 --> 00:00:16.650
uncertain times.
6
00:00:16.650 --> 00:00:19.950
And doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:19.950 --> 00:00:21.360
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.360 --> 00:00:25.950
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:26.820 --> 00:00:28.710
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:29.850 --> 00:00:32.010
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:35.880
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:37.950 --> 00:00:41.190
Welcome to today's program.
My name is Rick Renner.
13
00:00:41.190 --> 00:00:45.120
It is Friday, it is already
the end of the week.
14
00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:48.180
It seems like this week
has just gone like this
15
00:00:48.180 --> 00:00:52.740
as we've been studying
about sin in the camp in
16
00:00:52.740 --> 00:00:54.540
Joshua 7.
17
00:00:54.540 --> 00:00:57.120
And I've been teaching the series, which is called, The Sin
18
00:00:57.120 --> 00:01:01.320
of Achan: avoiding Sin that Forfeits Victory.
19
00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:02.460
And today is the last day we're
20
00:01:02.460 --> 00:01:03.870
offering this on the program.
21
00:01:03.870 --> 00:01:05.220
It comes with the study guide,
22
00:01:05.220 --> 00:01:08.580
and today is the last day
that we're offering the book,
23
00:01:08.580 --> 00:01:11.910
which is called, The Will of
God, the Key to Your Success.
24
00:01:11.910 --> 00:01:14.310
The subtitle says, positioning yourself
25
00:01:14.310 --> 00:01:17.670
to live in God's
supernatural Power, provision
26
00:01:17.670 --> 00:01:18.720
and Protection.
27
00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:20.850
I know you want that.
So please get this book.
28
00:01:20.850 --> 00:01:24.390
And today is the last day
this week that we're offering
29
00:01:24.390 --> 00:01:26.580
for free one per household,
30
00:01:26.580 --> 00:01:30.390
my little book called Repentance: what it Is, what It Isn't,
31
00:01:30.390 --> 00:01:32.220
and how to Do It.
32
00:01:32.220 --> 00:01:33.330
And today we're going
33
00:01:33.330 --> 00:01:37.200
to see that repentance is the way you regain
34
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:39.030
your victory.
35
00:01:39.030 --> 00:01:42.960
But before we get into today's
teaching, I wanna remind you
36
00:01:42.960 --> 00:01:45.000
that if you need prayer, we're
waiting to hear from you.
37
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:48.690
Ring the phone right now,
the number is on the screen,
38
00:01:48.690 --> 00:01:51.900
or send us an email at the
email address which you see on
39
00:01:51.900 --> 00:01:53.790
the device in front of you.
40
00:01:53.790 --> 00:01:57.810
And the moment we hear from
you, we're gonna really begin
41
00:01:57.810 --> 00:02:01.650
to pray and 1 John 5:14 promises,
42
00:02:01.650 --> 00:02:05.070
If we ask anything according to his will -
43
00:02:05.070 --> 00:02:07.140
that means you gotta pray according to the Bible
44
00:02:07.140 --> 00:02:09.870
or pray scripturally we know how to do that -
45
00:02:09.870 --> 00:02:13.800
if we ask anything according
to his will, he hears us,
46
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:16.290
which means God doesn't
just respond to emotions,
47
00:02:16.290 --> 00:02:17.670
he doesn't just respond to pain.
48
00:02:17.670 --> 00:02:19.440
He's listening for his word.
49
00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:21.630
And if you pray anything
according to his will,
50
00:02:21.630 --> 00:02:23.940
his ears open, he hears it,
51
00:02:23.940 --> 00:02:27.630
and we have the petition
which we ask of him.
52
00:02:27.630 --> 00:02:31.260
And if you'll call us, we will
pray scripturally with you,
53
00:02:31.260 --> 00:02:35.520
God will hear us and Jesus
will do what needs to be done.
54
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:37.500
And you know sometimes what needs
55
00:02:37.500 --> 00:02:40.860
to be done is different than what we think needs to be done,
56
00:02:40.860 --> 00:02:45.240
but it's so good that Jesus
does what needs to be done.
57
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.970
And my friends there is rest in that.
58
00:02:47.970 --> 00:02:51.450
But if you reach out to us,
we want to pray with you.
59
00:02:51.450 --> 00:02:53.280
But before I get into today's teaching,
60
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:57.030
I wanna share three small
really wonderful testimonies.
61
00:02:57.030 --> 00:02:59.710
Listen to this. One man
called to say he got a call
62
00:02:59.710 --> 00:03:03.520
with Rick on a recording reading Psalm 91.
63
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.230
He was so blessed by that call,
64
00:03:05.230 --> 00:03:09.670
but also by Psalm 91. This morning he read Psalm 91
65
00:03:09.670 --> 00:03:11.110
and 92.
66
00:03:11.110 --> 00:03:15.250
He called to say thank you for the Psalm 91 and call
67
00:03:15.250 --> 00:03:17.710
and to get prayer. After we prayed
68
00:03:17.710 --> 00:03:20.470
and I thanked him for being a faithful partner.
69
00:03:20.470 --> 00:03:23.200
He said, no, I'm the one being blessed.
70
00:03:23.200 --> 00:03:25.840
It is my honor to give to this ministry.
71
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:27.730
Well, I wanna say thank
you for that attitude.
72
00:03:27.730 --> 00:03:31.120
We need you and we
really thank God for you.
73
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:32.770
But here's another testimony.
74
00:03:32.770 --> 00:03:35.740
One partner called in to
say how thankful she was
75
00:03:35.740 --> 00:03:38.380
for the voicemail she got from us.
76
00:03:38.380 --> 00:03:41.200
She said, out of all the ministries she's ever talked to,
77
00:03:41.200 --> 00:03:44.050
Renner Ministries tops them all in the way
78
00:03:44.050 --> 00:03:45.580
the ministry cares for people
79
00:03:45.580 --> 00:03:48.640
and she holds the ministry
in very high esteem.
80
00:03:48.640 --> 00:03:50.470
Well, I'm glad you feel that way,
81
00:03:50.470 --> 00:03:53.380
but there are many ministries
doing a wonderful job,
82
00:03:53.380 --> 00:03:56.200
but we wanna do the best
job we can do for you.
83
00:03:56.200 --> 00:03:58.180
But here's one more fast testimony.
84
00:03:58.180 --> 00:04:00.460
A grandmother called to say
she had called for prayer
85
00:04:00.460 --> 00:04:03.310
for her granddaughter who had pneumonia.
86
00:04:03.310 --> 00:04:05.770
When my granddaughter
awakened, she said the bouts
87
00:04:05.770 --> 00:04:09.280
of coughing decreased
and her energy increased.
88
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:13.150
The next morning her granddaughter returned to school
89
00:04:13.150 --> 00:04:14.800
and she wanted to thank God
90
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:18.670
and to say thank you for your
prayers and your support.
91
00:04:18.670 --> 00:04:21.430
Well, it is our privilege to pray for you.
92
00:04:21.430 --> 00:04:24.460
And again, if you need
prayer, call us or write us
93
00:04:24.460 --> 00:04:26.800
and we'll pray for you as well.
94
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:29.350
But today I want you
to reach for your Bible
95
00:04:29.350 --> 00:04:31.330
and today we're going to see
96
00:04:31.330 --> 00:04:34.510
that repentance is God's requirement
97
00:04:34.510 --> 00:04:36.730
to regain victory.
98
00:04:36.730 --> 00:04:40.780
Repentance is God's
requirement to regain victory.
99
00:04:40.780 --> 00:04:43.270
Now you'll notice that on the set I have this
100
00:04:43.270 --> 00:04:44.830
strange looking hat.
101
00:04:44.830 --> 00:04:47.440
If this is the first time you've tuned into the program this
102
00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:49.330
week, the reason I have this is
103
00:04:49.330 --> 00:04:52.300
because we're told in Joshua 7, there was a man
104
00:04:52.300 --> 00:04:56.800
named Achan in Israel who stole a Babylonish garment
105
00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:58.750
that probably looked something like this.
106
00:04:58.750 --> 00:05:00.550
This is actually a garment
107
00:05:00.550 --> 00:05:03.790
that I bought from a nomadic
tribe in the Middle East.
108
00:05:03.790 --> 00:05:05.320
Well, he just loved it.
109
00:05:05.320 --> 00:05:08.650
He coveted it and he took
it and he hid it in his tent
110
00:05:08.650 --> 00:05:11.200
and that sin, it was a sin,
111
00:05:11.200 --> 00:05:13.030
it brought trouble to him personally
112
00:05:13.030 --> 00:05:15.790
and it brought folly to all of Israel.
113
00:05:15.790 --> 00:05:18.760
And God said, you will not
be able to stand in front
114
00:05:18.760 --> 00:05:22.810
of your enemies until you
repent and make this right.
115
00:05:22.810 --> 00:05:25.930
That's why today I call
this teaching repentance,
116
00:05:25.930 --> 00:05:29.350
God's requirement to regain victory.
117
00:05:29.350 --> 00:05:31.690
But I wanna begin with a story.
118
00:05:31.690 --> 00:05:33.880
When I was growing up
in the Baptist church,
119
00:05:33.880 --> 00:05:35.830
and by the way, I'm very
happy I grew up a Baptist,
120
00:05:35.830 --> 00:05:38.530
they really taught me the Bible.
121
00:05:38.530 --> 00:05:42.970
Every year in our Baptist church we had revival meetings.
122
00:05:42.970 --> 00:05:45.100
Now if you're my age,
you probably remember
123
00:05:45.100 --> 00:05:46.480
what was a revival.
124
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.310
Today when people use the word revival,
125
00:05:48.310 --> 00:05:51.250
they use it correctly to mean
we're praying for revival
126
00:05:51.250 --> 00:05:52.540
to come to the nation.
127
00:05:52.540 --> 00:05:54.910
But we meant we were
having a week of meetings
128
00:05:54.910 --> 00:05:57.230
and we called them revival meetings
129
00:05:57.230 --> 00:06:00.050
and we had it once,
sometimes twice a year.
130
00:06:00.050 --> 00:06:02.120
We had our favorite preachers that came in
131
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:06.920
and while they could really
preach growing up in church,
132
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:10.885
I began to notice some things
In those revival meetings I
133
00:06:10.885 --> 00:06:14.900
began to notice every
year we had certain people
134
00:06:14.900 --> 00:06:18.110
who would walk the aisle
and they would repent
135
00:06:18.110 --> 00:06:20.870
and they would rededicate
their life to the Lord
136
00:06:20.870 --> 00:06:23.765
and they would cry and cry and cry.
137
00:06:23.765 --> 00:06:26.390
I mean they nearly cried buckets.
138
00:06:26.390 --> 00:06:29.390
We had one woman in our
church, she was the woman
139
00:06:29.390 --> 00:06:30.770
who worked the altar.
140
00:06:30.770 --> 00:06:32.180
She had a clipboard
141
00:06:32.180 --> 00:06:34.790
and she was the one
recording all the decisions
142
00:06:34.790 --> 00:06:36.350
of all the people who came forward.
143
00:06:36.350 --> 00:06:39.770
Remember we were Baptist, we
kept records of everything
144
00:06:39.770 --> 00:06:43.880
and she also carried a box
of Kleenex for the criers
145
00:06:43.880 --> 00:06:46.250
who came forward to repent.
146
00:06:46.250 --> 00:06:47.870
And as a child, I began
147
00:06:47.870 --> 00:06:51.650
to notice it seemed like it
was the same people coming
148
00:06:51.650 --> 00:06:55.190
forward every time at
the revival meetings.
149
00:06:55.190 --> 00:06:57.890
And as a young person, I begin to watch
150
00:06:57.890 --> 00:06:59.000
and I begin to wonder, okay,
151
00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:00.830
we're in another revival meeting.
152
00:07:00.830 --> 00:07:02.660
Is this person gonna show up
153
00:07:02.660 --> 00:07:06.620
and cry This time they
never came to church except
154
00:07:06.620 --> 00:07:08.540
during a revival meeting.
155
00:07:08.540 --> 00:07:10.670
Then after they were finished crying
156
00:07:10.670 --> 00:07:12.740
and repenting, they just disappeared
157
00:07:12.740 --> 00:07:15.650
and we didn't see them again
until the next revival meeting
158
00:07:15.650 --> 00:07:17.600
and at the next revival meeting here,
159
00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:20.450
they came again walking the aisle crying
160
00:07:20.450 --> 00:07:22.940
and crying, saying they were repenting
161
00:07:22.940 --> 00:07:24.200
and rededicating their lives.
162
00:07:24.200 --> 00:07:27.020
And I knew they were
not gonna show up again
163
00:07:27.020 --> 00:07:31.460
because all they had really
was tears and a lot of regret.
164
00:07:31.460 --> 00:07:33.920
They weren't really repenting
165
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:37.040
and I began to figure
that out when I was a kid.
166
00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:41.360
There is a difference
between regret, remorse
167
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:43.460
and repentance.
168
00:07:43.460 --> 00:07:47.240
The word repent is the Greek word, metanoeo.
169
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:50.750
The word meta, carries the idea of a turn; the word, noeo,
170
00:07:50.750 --> 00:07:51.890
means to think.
171
00:07:51.890 --> 00:07:53.750
When you compound the two words together,
172
00:07:53.750 --> 00:07:55.790
it describes - are you ready for this -
173
00:07:55.790 --> 00:07:57.740
a change of mind
174
00:07:57.740 --> 00:08:02.180
that results in a complete radical total change of behavior
175
00:08:02.180 --> 00:08:05.660
and tears are not even required for repentance.
176
00:08:05.660 --> 00:08:09.110
It is a change of mind. Now
if you cry, that's all right,
177
00:08:09.110 --> 00:08:12.230
but tears are not required to repent.
178
00:08:12.230 --> 00:08:13.550
It is a change of mind
179
00:08:13.550 --> 00:08:18.550
that results in a complete radical total change of behavior.
180
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:21.920
It is a decision to completely change
181
00:08:21.920 --> 00:08:23.930
or to turn around in the way
182
00:08:23.930 --> 00:08:27.860
one is thinking, believing or living.
183
00:08:27.860 --> 00:08:32.210
It is a total transformation
affecting every part
184
00:08:32.210 --> 00:08:35.000
of a person's life, both inside
185
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:38.150
and outside resulting in a
186
00:08:38.150 --> 00:08:40.040
behavioral change.
187
00:08:41.390 --> 00:08:43.070
When our kids were growing up, Denise
188
00:08:43.070 --> 00:08:46.220
and I wanted them to understand biblical terms.
189
00:08:46.220 --> 00:08:50.000
And so if our kids did something wrong, rather than say, oh,
190
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:51.080
you're really in trouble,
191
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:53.330
or your attitude is really wrong,
192
00:08:53.330 --> 00:08:55.500
we always use the word repent
193
00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:57.420
when our kids were growing up,
194
00:08:57.420 --> 00:08:59.700
and we'd say, you need to
repent of that attitude,
195
00:08:59.700 --> 00:09:02.130
and they understood what it
means, it meant they need
196
00:09:02.130 --> 00:09:03.720
to change their attitude.
197
00:09:04.650 --> 00:09:08.850
Joel, when he was particularly
younger, he would cry and cry
198
00:09:08.850 --> 00:09:10.440
and I'd say, Joel, just cut that out.
199
00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:14.430
I'm not asking you to cry. Your tears don't even impress me.
200
00:09:14.430 --> 00:09:17.370
I'm asking you to make a decision to repent.
201
00:09:17.370 --> 00:09:19.980
I'm asking you to change
your behavior to change
202
00:09:19.980 --> 00:09:22.830
what you're saying, to
change your actions.
203
00:09:22.830 --> 00:09:26.880
Repentance is an inward
decision to change.
204
00:09:26.880 --> 00:09:30.360
It can come with tears and
it may not come with tears,
205
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:31.650
but we see an example
206
00:09:31.650 --> 00:09:36.300
of false repentance in Matthew 27:3
207
00:09:36.300 --> 00:09:39.390
5 where we read about Judas Iscariot
208
00:09:39.390 --> 00:09:41.430
and the Bible says then Judas,
209
00:09:41.430 --> 00:09:45.570
which had betrayed Jesus when
he saw that he was condemned,
210
00:09:45.570 --> 00:09:47.430
repented himself.
211
00:09:47.430 --> 00:09:50.670
There's that word repented: really - are you sure?
212
00:09:50.670 --> 00:09:53.130
Well, that's what the
King James version says.
213
00:09:53.130 --> 00:09:55.140
Well, we need to see what the Greek says.
214
00:09:55.140 --> 00:09:56.580
It says, repented himself
215
00:09:56.580 --> 00:09:58.590
and brought again the 30 pieces of silver
216
00:09:58.590 --> 00:10:02.790
to the chief priests and elders saying, I have sinned in
217
00:10:02.790 --> 00:10:04.560
that I betrayed the innocent blood.
218
00:10:04.560 --> 00:10:06.630
I'm sure he was weeping and weeping
219
00:10:06.630 --> 00:10:08.760
and they said, what is that to us?
220
00:10:08.760 --> 00:10:10.830
See thou to that.
221
00:10:10.830 --> 00:10:13.860
And he cast down the pieces
of silver in the temple
222
00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:16.920
and departed and went
out and hanged himself.
223
00:10:16.920 --> 00:10:19.830
Well, hanging yourself is not the fruit
224
00:10:19.830 --> 00:10:22.080
of genuine repentance.
225
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:25.590
And what I want you to
understand is the remorse
226
00:10:25.590 --> 00:10:28.500
and guilt are not repentance.
227
00:10:28.500 --> 00:10:32.280
This was remorse, this was
guilt, this was regret.
228
00:10:32.280 --> 00:10:35.940
And in fact, in Matthew 27:3, it says,
229
00:10:35.940 --> 00:10:39.450
then Judas, which had betrayed him when he saw
230
00:10:39.450 --> 00:10:42.060
that he was condemned, repented.
231
00:10:42.060 --> 00:10:44.430
Alright, that's a bad translation.
232
00:10:44.430 --> 00:10:46.471
This is not the word metanoeo
233
00:10:46.471 --> 00:10:47.679
which is the New Testament word
234
00:10:47.679 --> 00:10:48.750
for repentance.
235
00:10:48.750 --> 00:10:52.350
This is the Greek word, metamelomai. It
236
00:10:52.350 --> 00:10:54.330
doesn't even sound the same.
237
00:10:54.330 --> 00:10:57.930
This particular word, repented the Greek word metamelomai,
238
00:10:57.930 --> 00:11:02.930
means to be overwhelmed with emotions.
239
00:11:03.390 --> 00:11:06.510
It is used five times in the New Testament
240
00:11:06.510 --> 00:11:11.400
to express sorrow, mourning or grief.
241
00:11:11.400 --> 00:11:13.020
It never pictures
242
00:11:13.020 --> 00:11:15.540
someone moved to change,
243
00:11:15.540 --> 00:11:20.540
but rather pictures one that
is seized with remorse, guilt,
244
00:11:20.640 --> 00:11:22.200
or regret.
245
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:25.350
This is fake repentance.
246
00:11:26.220 --> 00:11:30.300
They're crying buckets of tears, emptying boxes of Kleenex.
247
00:11:30.300 --> 00:11:32.730
It's a big show of emotion,
248
00:11:32.730 --> 00:11:36.870
but no decision to change.
249
00:11:36.870 --> 00:11:39.000
I wanna read from my notes. The word, metamelomai,
250
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:43.350
this word depicts remorse
251
00:11:43.350 --> 00:11:44.550
that grips a person
252
00:11:44.550 --> 00:11:48.150
because of an act he's committed that he knows is wrong.
253
00:11:48.150 --> 00:11:50.880
If he was willing to
really repent, that is
254
00:11:50.880 --> 00:11:52.560
to make a decision to change,
255
00:11:52.560 --> 00:11:55.510
he would be forgiven and he could change.
256
00:11:55.510 --> 00:12:00.100
But because he has no plans to repent
257
00:12:00.100 --> 00:12:02.110
and to stop what he is doing
258
00:12:02.110 --> 00:12:05.620
and to try to rectify what he
has done that is wrong, he is
259
00:12:05.620 --> 00:12:08.530
therefore gripped with remorse.
260
00:12:08.530 --> 00:12:12.670
Remorse. And this emotion produces
261
00:12:12.670 --> 00:12:14.470
no change.
262
00:12:14.470 --> 00:12:16.780
It is fake repentance.
263
00:12:16.780 --> 00:12:18.580
The word metamelomai,
264
00:12:18.580 --> 00:12:23.020
this word expresses the guilt a person
265
00:12:23.020 --> 00:12:26.890
feels because he knows
that he is done wrong.
266
00:12:26.890 --> 00:12:29.890
He knows he is gonna continue to do wrong
267
00:12:29.890 --> 00:12:33.640
and that he has no plans to
change his course of action.
268
00:12:33.640 --> 00:12:36.310
He feels shameful about what he is doing,
269
00:12:36.310 --> 00:12:40.330
but continues to do it anyway,
which results in a state
270
00:12:40.330 --> 00:12:43.450
of ongoing guilt.
271
00:12:43.450 --> 00:12:47.830
And this guilt produces no change.
272
00:12:47.830 --> 00:12:52.830
No change. The word, metamelomai, denotes regret,
273
00:12:53.260 --> 00:12:54.940
regret that a person feels
274
00:12:54.940 --> 00:12:57.790
because he's caught doing something
275
00:12:57.790 --> 00:12:59.320
that he shouldn't have been doing.
276
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:01.630
He isn't repentant for committing the sin.
277
00:13:01.630 --> 00:13:05.410
Instead, he's sorrowful because he got caught.
278
00:13:05.410 --> 00:13:07.390
Now he's in trouble.
279
00:13:07.390 --> 00:13:11.200
But rather than be repentant,
this person is regretful
280
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:14.950
that he got caught and must
now pay the consequences.
281
00:13:14.950 --> 00:13:17.380
Chances are that if he
had never been caught,
282
00:13:17.380 --> 00:13:20.020
he would've never stopped
what he was doing.
283
00:13:20.020 --> 00:13:21.220
And this kind
284
00:13:21.220 --> 00:13:25.390
of regret never produces change.
285
00:13:27.160 --> 00:13:31.930
My friend, remorse, guilt, regret,
286
00:13:31.930 --> 00:13:36.070
these do not represent real repentance.
287
00:13:36.070 --> 00:13:39.070
Repentance is a change of mind
288
00:13:39.070 --> 00:13:42.310
that results in behavioral change.
289
00:13:42.310 --> 00:13:45.400
And we see a beautiful example of repentance
290
00:13:45.400 --> 00:13:47.860
in 2 Corinthians 7:9.
291
00:13:47.860 --> 00:13:51.280
The Corinthians were really tolerating sin in the camp.
292
00:13:51.280 --> 00:13:54.040
There was a man in the church who took his
293
00:13:54.040 --> 00:13:56.320
father's wife, and was sleeping with her
294
00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:58.690
and their Corinthians were just tolerating this.
295
00:13:58.690 --> 00:14:00.100
The apostle Paul heard about it,
296
00:14:00.100 --> 00:14:02.560
he rebuked them very sternly.
297
00:14:02.560 --> 00:14:05.560
In fact so strongly that
his letter caused them a lot
298
00:14:05.560 --> 00:14:06.820
of inward pain.
299
00:14:06.820 --> 00:14:09.790
And it refers to that in 2 Corinthians 7:
300
00:14:09.790 --> 00:14:13.090
9, and the New King James Version says it like this;
301
00:14:13.090 --> 00:14:16.570
Now I rejoice, not that
you were made, sorry,
302
00:14:16.570 --> 00:14:20.560
but that your sorrow led to repentance for you were made
303
00:14:20.560 --> 00:14:23.770
sorry in a godly manner.
304
00:14:23.770 --> 00:14:27.190
The word sorry in this verse is the Greek word, lupeo,
305
00:14:27.190 --> 00:14:29.230
which means to experience pain
306
00:14:29.230 --> 00:14:31.150
or grief. You could translate it,
307
00:14:31.150 --> 00:14:35.350
you were made to be pained. I caused you to be grieved.
308
00:14:35.350 --> 00:14:38.890
But your sorrow led to repentance,
309
00:14:38.890 --> 00:14:41.800
and this is the right word, the Greek word metanoeo.
310
00:14:41.800 --> 00:14:44.830
The word meta, which carries the idea of a change,
311
00:14:44.830 --> 00:14:46.570
the word noeo, which means to think
312
00:14:46.570 --> 00:14:47.980
or compound the two words together.
313
00:14:47.980 --> 00:14:50.050
The word, metanoeo, translated
314
00:14:50.050 --> 00:14:51.470
here as the word, repentance.
315
00:14:51.470 --> 00:14:54.590
And again, it is a change of mind,
316
00:14:54.590 --> 00:14:58.850
that results in a complete radical total change of behavior;
317
00:14:58.850 --> 00:15:02.330
it is a decision to completely change
318
00:15:02.330 --> 00:15:03.530
or turn around in the way
319
00:15:03.530 --> 00:15:05.780
one is thinking, believing or living.
320
00:15:05.780 --> 00:15:09.830
It is a total transformation
affecting every part
321
00:15:09.830 --> 00:15:12.140
of a person's life, both inside
322
00:15:12.140 --> 00:15:17.140
and outside, resulting in a behavioral change.
323
00:15:17.210 --> 00:15:21.380
Which means, when a person really, really repents,
324
00:15:21.380 --> 00:15:24.590
there's fruit of repentance, there's evidence,
325
00:15:24.590 --> 00:15:26.420
there is a change.
326
00:15:26.420 --> 00:15:28.850
A person that has really repented,
327
00:15:28.850 --> 00:15:30.980
has more than tears to show for it.
328
00:15:30.980 --> 00:15:33.530
He makes a decision to change
329
00:15:33.530 --> 00:15:35.180
and there is some kind of a change
330
00:15:35.180 --> 00:15:37.220
that takes place in his life.
331
00:15:37.220 --> 00:15:42.020
The RIV of 2 Corinthians 7:9 says it like this:
332
00:15:42.020 --> 00:15:44.720
I don't rejoice that I cause you to feel pain and grief,
333
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:49.280
but I rejoice that my letter
made you want to change.
334
00:15:49.280 --> 00:15:53.720
The pain you felt was your
response to God's dealings
335
00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:55.400
with you.
336
00:15:55.400 --> 00:15:58.670
And the Corinthians were prompt to respond
337
00:15:58.670 --> 00:16:01.070
to God's dealings with them.
338
00:16:01.070 --> 00:16:04.520
And in fact, they acted so swiftly
339
00:16:04.520 --> 00:16:08.810
that we read further in 2 Corinthians 7:11,
340
00:16:08.810 --> 00:16:12.440
that Paul said to them in
response to their repentance
341
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:15.140
for observe, this very thing
342
00:16:15.140 --> 00:16:17.600
that you sorrowed in a godly manner,
343
00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:22.040
what diligence it produced
in you, what clearing
344
00:16:22.040 --> 00:16:26.120
of yourself, what indignation, what fear,
345
00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:28.460
what vehement desire, what zeal,
346
00:16:28.460 --> 00:16:32.900
what vindication in all things you proved
347
00:16:32.900 --> 00:16:37.130
yourself to be clear in this matter.
348
00:16:38.060 --> 00:16:41.450
Paul says, their repentance
produced diligence,
349
00:16:41.450 --> 00:16:43.430
it produced the clearing of themselves:
350
00:16:43.430 --> 00:16:47.600
indignation, fear, vehement desire, zeal,
351
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:50.870
vindication in all things
you've proved yourself
352
00:16:50.870 --> 00:16:54.980
to be clear in this matter,
they offered more than tears,
353
00:16:54.980 --> 00:16:59.270
they changed, they made
a decision to respond
354
00:16:59.270 --> 00:17:01.310
to God's dealings with them.
355
00:17:01.310 --> 00:17:03.230
And that's what we have to do
356
00:17:03.230 --> 00:17:06.560
if the Holy Spirit has shown us there's anything in our life
357
00:17:06.560 --> 00:17:10.340
that is wrong, that we havenbeen tolerating. The actions
358
00:17:10.340 --> 00:17:13.040
of the Corinthians were the outward proof
359
00:17:13.040 --> 00:17:16.130
that real repentance had taken place
360
00:17:16.130 --> 00:17:18.620
and true repentance produces
361
00:17:18.620 --> 00:17:23.510
and indisputable transformation in behavior.
362
00:17:23.510 --> 00:17:24.860
And if there's no change
363
00:17:24.860 --> 00:17:26.990
and no transformation,
364
00:17:26.990 --> 00:17:29.930
then probably it's just been, metamelomai;
365
00:17:29.930 --> 00:17:32.990
it's been regret, remorse and guilt,
366
00:17:32.990 --> 00:17:36.110
but not true repentance.
367
00:17:36.110 --> 00:17:40.340
They completely exonerated themselves
368
00:17:40.340 --> 00:17:44.240
because they made a decision
to respond to God's dealings
369
00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:45.260
with them.
370
00:17:46.670 --> 00:17:50.400
Now I want to ask you - Have you ever felt sorrow about
371
00:17:50.400 --> 00:17:53.400
something that you've allowed to be tolerated in your life
372
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:56.730
and the Holy Spirit begin to deal with you that it is wrong?
373
00:17:57.840 --> 00:17:59.760
Well, you may have felt bad about it,
374
00:17:59.760 --> 00:18:01.290
you may have felt regretful about it.
375
00:18:01.290 --> 00:18:03.210
You may have even been shameful about it,
376
00:18:03.210 --> 00:18:06.030
but none of those emotions
are gonna change anything.
377
00:18:06.030 --> 00:18:09.630
You've got to make a decision
to do something about it.
378
00:18:09.630 --> 00:18:13.470
Like I used to say to my kids
when they were growing up,
379
00:18:13.470 --> 00:18:17.010
I would say, I want you to repent and change that attitude.
380
00:18:17.010 --> 00:18:19.950
God is not looking for us to grovel.
381
00:18:19.950 --> 00:18:22.500
Groveling does not change a thing.
382
00:18:22.500 --> 00:18:25.590
This is why God said to Joshua
into the people of Israel,
383
00:18:25.590 --> 00:18:27.240
get up off the ground.
384
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:30.720
Stand up. It's time for you to
deal with the issue at hand.
385
00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:33.630
Crying is not gonna change anything.
386
00:18:34.650 --> 00:18:37.380
Now, sometimes when you are
deeply sorry about something
387
00:18:37.380 --> 00:18:39.210
you've done, tears can come,
388
00:18:39.210 --> 00:18:41.670
but tears alone are not
gonna change anything.
389
00:18:41.670 --> 00:18:45.780
Repentance has to do
with a change of mine.
390
00:18:45.780 --> 00:18:48.390
And my friend, I want to ask
you, when God deals with you,
391
00:18:48.390 --> 00:18:51.060
do you allow it to deeply impact you so
392
00:18:51.060 --> 00:18:52.980
that you make a decision to change
393
00:18:52.980 --> 00:18:55.290
or do you just brush it off
394
00:18:55.290 --> 00:18:59.820
and go on? My friends, don't brush it off and go on
395
00:18:59.820 --> 00:19:02.400
because as long as you brush it off,
396
00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:05.310
you're keeping the door open for defeat
397
00:19:05.310 --> 00:19:07.350
to keep coming into your life.
398
00:19:07.350 --> 00:19:09.600
And my friend, God wants you
399
00:19:09.600 --> 00:19:12.000
to experience victory in your life.
400
00:19:12.000 --> 00:19:17.000
And repentance is essential for you to regain your position
401
00:19:17.010 --> 00:19:18.270
of victory.
402
00:19:18.270 --> 00:19:22.740
That's why God calls on us
to repentance, repentance.
403
00:19:22.740 --> 00:19:26.250
So we have a choice. When the Holy Spirit deals with us
404
00:19:26.250 --> 00:19:28.770
and shows us that we have sin in the camp,
405
00:19:28.770 --> 00:19:30.720
something going on in our private life
406
00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:32.970
that we know shouldn't be going on,
407
00:19:32.970 --> 00:19:35.550
and it could be very something simple.
408
00:19:35.550 --> 00:19:37.260
Maybe you've got bitterness towards somebody
409
00:19:37.260 --> 00:19:39.120
and you know you shouldn't have it.
410
00:19:39.120 --> 00:19:40.980
Maybe you're doing something you know
411
00:19:40.980 --> 00:19:42.510
that you're not supposed to do.
412
00:19:42.510 --> 00:19:44.700
Maybe you're eating more than you're supposed to eat
413
00:19:44.700 --> 00:19:46.980
and you just brush it off and brush it off
414
00:19:46.980 --> 00:19:48.810
and it brings defeat into your life.
415
00:19:48.810 --> 00:19:53.400
And you might even experience regret, remorse, guilt.
416
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:55.440
Oh, I feel so bad about what I'm doing,
417
00:19:55.440 --> 00:19:57.300
but you have no intention to change.
418
00:19:57.300 --> 00:20:01.140
Repentance is the intention to change.
419
00:20:01.140 --> 00:20:04.890
And if you'll just say,
Lord, I hear you telling me
420
00:20:04.890 --> 00:20:06.510
to get off my face and to stand up
421
00:20:06.510 --> 00:20:10.620
and do something about this,
and I'm gonna make a decision
422
00:20:10.620 --> 00:20:12.375
and Holy Spirit ask you
to give me the power
423
00:20:12.375 --> 00:20:16.620
to carry it out, I am making
a decision to come clean
424
00:20:16.620 --> 00:20:20.280
and to exonerate myself in this matter.
425
00:20:20.280 --> 00:20:22.650
And the Holy Spirit will
enable you to do that
426
00:20:22.650 --> 00:20:26.550
and you will regain victory in
427
00:20:26.550 --> 00:20:28.380
your life.
428
00:20:28.380 --> 00:20:30.750
Say amen. I'll be back in just a moment.
429
00:20:39.030 --> 00:20:40.770
Hey friends, this is Rick Renner
430
00:20:40.770 --> 00:20:43.320
and somebody just asked the question;
431
00:20:43.320 --> 00:20:48.010
how do I present myself as a living sacrifice to God?
432
00:20:48.010 --> 00:20:51.280
What we read about that in Romans 12:1,
433
00:20:51.280 --> 00:20:53.320
where Paul says, I beseech you
434
00:20:53.320 --> 00:20:56.020
therefore brethren by the mercies of God
435
00:20:56.020 --> 00:20:58.060
that you present your bodies
436
00:20:58.060 --> 00:21:01.360
as a living sacrifice to God.
437
00:21:01.360 --> 00:21:03.700
And a living sacrifice is a person
438
00:21:03.700 --> 00:21:06.010
who crawls on the altar every day
439
00:21:06.010 --> 00:21:07.990
and says, God, here I am
440
00:21:07.990 --> 00:21:11.740
to recommit myself one more time.
441
00:21:11.740 --> 00:21:13.780
It's not something you just once,
442
00:21:13.780 --> 00:21:15.160
but it's something you do every day
443
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:16.360
for the rest of your life.
444
00:21:16.360 --> 00:21:20.260
It is a continual commitment
when you literally present
445
00:21:20.260 --> 00:21:23.530
yourself to God and you
say, God, I'm yours.
446
00:21:23.530 --> 00:21:27.130
Do with me as you wish.
Use me as you wish.
447
00:21:27.130 --> 00:21:31.300
I am yours to be used and my friends,
448
00:21:31.300 --> 00:21:32.620
it is a sacrifice
449
00:21:32.620 --> 00:21:33.970
and a commitment that we need
450
00:21:33.970 --> 00:21:37.870
to renew every single day of our lives.
451
00:21:37.870 --> 00:21:40.690
Is there something you
are trying to hide from God?
452
00:21:40.690 --> 00:21:45.040
He is omniscient and
omnipotent. He already knows.
453
00:21:45.040 --> 00:21:48.610
In Rick Renner's new series, the Sin of Achan, discover how
454
00:21:48.610 --> 00:21:51.550
to avoid making the same mistake Achan made when he tried
455
00:21:51.550 --> 00:21:54.190
to hide his sin, unlock the door
456
00:21:54.190 --> 00:21:56.830
to getting back in right standing with God
457
00:21:56.830 --> 00:21:59.410
and receiving the
unhindered victory Jesus has
458
00:21:59.410 --> 00:22:00.760
made available to you.
459
00:22:00.760 --> 00:22:03.850
This five part series
teaches how to identify
460
00:22:03.850 --> 00:22:06.970
what sin you are hiding,
the difference between a sin
461
00:22:06.970 --> 00:22:08.260
and a trespass.
462
00:22:08.260 --> 00:22:09.850
What is an abomination?
463
00:22:09.850 --> 00:22:13.600

481
00:23:09.190 --> 00:23:12.820
Hey friends, this is Rick
Renner and guess where I am.
482
00:23:12.820 --> 00:23:14.710
I'm seated in the lunch room
483
00:23:14.710 --> 00:23:17.020
of our Tulsa headquarters office.
484
00:23:17.020 --> 00:23:20.410
And you'll notice that all around this room are photographs,
485
00:23:20.410 --> 00:23:22.030
big photographs of places
486
00:23:22.030 --> 00:23:24.580
where we have offices. Just behind the camera,
487
00:23:24.580 --> 00:23:26.470
I'm looking at the Oklahoma State Capitol
488
00:23:26.470 --> 00:23:28.480
because this office is in Oklahoma
489
00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:30.940
and there's a lot of team
members who work here.
490
00:23:30.940 --> 00:23:33.970
But then you'll notice right
here is a beautiful picture
491
00:23:33.970 --> 00:23:37.060
of Riga where Denise and I
lived in Latvia for years.
492
00:23:37.060 --> 00:23:39.790
We have an office there and
we have a significant number
493
00:23:39.790 --> 00:23:41.410
of team members there.
494
00:23:41.410 --> 00:23:45.110
Behind that, you see
a photograph of London
495
00:23:45.110 --> 00:23:47.300
because we also have an office in London.
496
00:23:47.300 --> 00:23:50.090
Did you know that? We
have team members there.
497
00:23:50.090 --> 00:23:53.180
Then over here you see a
beautiful picture of Moscow.
498
00:23:53.180 --> 00:23:55.640
We have many, many,
many team members there.
499
00:23:55.640 --> 00:23:58.220
And then out in the hallway,
there's a big photograph
500
00:23:58.220 --> 00:23:59.930
of Mongolia.
501
00:23:59.930 --> 00:24:02.510
You may not have known it,
but we also have an office in
502
00:24:02.510 --> 00:24:05.360
Mongolia and we have team members there.
503
00:24:05.360 --> 00:24:07.640
We are doing work all
504
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:10.310
around the planet and we're able to do it,
505
00:24:10.310 --> 00:24:13.430
No.1, because of the grace of God.
506
00:24:13.430 --> 00:24:15.170
No.2, because Denise and I
507
00:24:15.170 --> 00:24:16.730
and our team are willing to do the work.
508
00:24:16.730 --> 00:24:19.850
And No.3, because of partners who come along
509
00:24:19.850 --> 00:24:21.620
to put fuel in the tank.
510
00:24:21.620 --> 00:24:24.620
And the reason I'm speaking
to you right now is
511
00:24:24.620 --> 00:24:27.380
because I'm very grateful for your part.
512
00:24:27.380 --> 00:24:31.220
We couldn't do our part if you don't do your part.
513
00:24:31.220 --> 00:24:34.100
You know all of us are necessary in the great plan of God.
514
00:24:34.100 --> 00:24:35.720
God is the one that gives all the growth,
515
00:24:35.720 --> 00:24:38.450
so he ultimately gives all the glory.
516
00:24:38.450 --> 00:24:41.750
But I would be wrong if I
didn't stop to say thank you
517
00:24:41.750 --> 00:24:43.490
to you for being one
518
00:24:43.490 --> 00:24:46.970
of the most faithful
partners in our ministry.
519
00:24:46.970 --> 00:24:51.590
And that is who you are. You
are among the most faithful.
520
00:24:51.590 --> 00:24:54.770
And for this, I just wanted to say "thank you."
521
00:25:01.040 --> 00:25:02.570
Well, today we've been looking at the fact
522
00:25:02.570 --> 00:25:06.710
that repentance is God's
requirement for you
523
00:25:06.710 --> 00:25:09.020
to regain victory.
524
00:25:09.020 --> 00:25:14.020
This is so very important for
you to understand and to do.
525
00:25:14.060 --> 00:25:15.440
And I want you to get the whole series,
526
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:18.740
which is called, The Sin of Achan: Avoiding Sin
527
00:25:18.740 --> 00:25:20.030
that Forfeits Victory.
528
00:25:20.030 --> 00:25:21.920
And today is the last day that we're offering this
529
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:23.720
and the study guide on the program.
530
00:25:23.720 --> 00:25:25.490
And today is also the last day
531
00:25:25.490 --> 00:25:28.220
that we're offering my book called, The Will of God, the key
532
00:25:28.220 --> 00:25:29.330
to your success.
533
00:25:29.330 --> 00:25:32.510
And today is the last day that we're offering to you
534
00:25:32.510 --> 00:25:34.520
for free, one per household -
535
00:25:34.520 --> 00:25:37.550
the little book called, Repentance: what it is,
536
00:25:37.550 --> 00:25:40.670
what it Isn't, and how to do It.
537
00:25:40.670 --> 00:25:43.640
How do you Do it? It's in this little book
538
00:25:43.640 --> 00:25:45.260
and I want you to have this little book.
539
00:25:45.260 --> 00:25:48.980
It is our gift to you today
and today is the last day.
540
00:25:48.980 --> 00:25:51.860
Oh, you can get all these
things by going online or
541
00:25:51.860 --> 00:25:53.450
or by giving us a call.
542
00:25:53.450 --> 00:25:56.030
And before I close the
program, I wanna pray for you
543
00:25:56.030 --> 00:25:58.820
and remind you that we're
here to pray for you.
544
00:25:58.820 --> 00:26:00.770
And if you'll call the
number on the screen
545
00:26:00.770 --> 00:26:04.910
or send us an email, we will
really begin to pray for you.
546
00:26:04.910 --> 00:26:09.140
And Jesus will really do
exactly what needs to be done
547
00:26:09.140 --> 00:26:12.830
and he knows better than
anybody what needs to be done.
548
00:26:12.830 --> 00:26:15.500
But we will pray the prayer
of agreement with you.
549
00:26:15.500 --> 00:26:18.770
So call us or send us an email.
550
00:26:18.770 --> 00:26:20.480
Put your hand on your heart and let's pray.
551
00:26:20.480 --> 00:26:23.810
Father, we thank you in the
name of Jesus for the power
552
00:26:23.810 --> 00:26:27.140
of the Holy Spirit, that
he gives us the ability
553
00:26:27.140 --> 00:26:28.820
to do more than cry.
554
00:26:28.820 --> 00:26:33.820
He gives us the ability to
make a decision to change.
555
00:26:34.340 --> 00:26:36.860
And Lord, that's what
you're asking us to do.
556
00:26:36.860 --> 00:26:40.760
And we know the repentance
is your requirement for us
557
00:26:40.760 --> 00:26:42.020
to regain victory.
558
00:26:42.020 --> 00:26:45.810
So give us the grace and
give us the power to repent
559
00:26:45.810 --> 00:26:47.520
and to carry it out.
560
00:26:47.520 --> 00:26:52.520
In Jesus' name, amen.
Thanks for being with me.
561
00:26:52.590 --> 00:26:54.330
I'll see you in the next program.
562
00:26:54.330 --> 00:26:58.200
But remember, Ecclesiastes 8:4 says, "Where the word
563
00:26:58.200 --> 00:27:01.860
of a king is, there is power."
564
00:27:01.860 --> 00:27:04.140
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
565
00:27:04.140 --> 00:27:08.520
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
566
00:27:08.520 --> 00:27:10.680
Jesus has to give you.
567
00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:14.760
Pray this prayer with me right now; Lord,
568
00:27:14.760 --> 00:27:18.780
I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior
569
00:27:18.780 --> 00:27:21.750
and Lord. Wash away my sin
570
00:27:21.750 --> 00:27:24.780
and make me completely new.
571
00:27:24.780 --> 00:27:28.590
I thank you that my sin is removed
572
00:27:28.590 --> 00:27:33.590
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
573
00:27:34.110 --> 00:27:38.100
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
574
00:27:38.100 --> 00:27:39.780
for the rest of my life.
575
00:27:40.650 --> 00:27:41.650
Amen.
576
00:27:44.580 --> 00:27:47.400

prayer of salvation with us,
577
00:27:47.400 --> 00:27:49.350
