Brannon Howse: Aired August 23, 2012




Worldview Matters show

Summary: The Fruit of Repentance is the theme of today’s Worldview Weekend Radio. Brannon’s main text is Matthew 3:8-12 where John the Baptist admonishes the Pharisees and Sadducees to “bear fruits worthy of repentance.” What are the fruits of someone that has repented of their sins and placed their faith and trust in Jesus Christ? What is Biblical repentance? Why does Brannon say that God grants us the ability to repent of our sins? While works have no role in one being saved, a true believer will bear the fruit of good works. Brannon discuses Mark 1:14-15, Acts 2:38, 3:19, 20:21, Jonah 3:10, Isaiah 1:16, John 8:39-40 and 2 Corinthians 7:9-11. A catholic caller a few weeks ago said the I Peter revealed that one must be baptized to be saved. Brannon explains how I Peter 3:20-21 has nothing to do with Baptism and that one is not saved through works but through faith and repentance. We take your calls.
