"Luke 13:4-6 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.
Luke 13:7-9 Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?
And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down."
We are called to bear fruit. Hence, the phrase 'except ye repent'
So then what are we to repent from: a fruitless life. What is then a fruitless life.
1. A life without salvation. John 3:3, John 3:16.
2. A life not in tune with divine purpose. Act 19:25, Act 26:16, Rom 8:28, Rom. 9:17, Ephesians 1:11, Timothy 1:19, 1 John 3:8
Remain blessed.
