A Message for All - Matthew 4: 12-17

Galilee – the northern province of Palestine, small 25 by 35 miles in size, but quite densely populated.  Estimated to be around 350,000 people with 100,000 being Jews.  It was a farming and fishing community, far from Jerusalem.

Jesus began His public ministry to both Jews and Gentiles.

Repent

Means to admit your sin - confession

Express sorrow over your sin - contrition

Turn from your sin - conversion

“True repentance is never too late, but late repentance is seldom true.”  Matthew Henry
