The wilderness from which John preached “repent!” was a picture of our own spiritual barrenness. Keep in mind Jesus’ words in Matthew 6:3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” In other words, blessed are those who understand that they are spiritually bankrupt.

The call to salvation in Jesus Christ requires an understanding of what repentance is and why you need it. This is no quick decision or one time act, but a change of life.
