Luke 3:1-6

Listen to Luke 3:1-6

1 And in the fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar -- Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother, tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene --

2 Annas and Caiaphas being chief priests -- there came a word of God unto John the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness,

3 and he came to all the region round the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of reformation -- to remission of sins,

4 as it hath been written in the scroll of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, `A voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye His paths;

5 every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall become straightness, and the rough become smooth ways;

6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.'

The Harsh But Good NewsRepentance. It’s not a word we often hear. Maybe because it makes us feel uncomfortable. We hear “repent” and we squirm in our seats, or try and change the subject. It’s definitely not a feel-good word! On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez explains how the uneasy topic of repentance goes hand-in-hand with the good news of forgiveness.
