Repentance
          1 Jesus began to preach by saying, Repent: for
          the  kingdom  of heaven is  at  hand.  And  Jesus,

          walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brothers,
          Simon  called  Peter,  and  Andrew  his  brother,
          casting  a  net  into  the  sea:  for  they  were
          fishermen. And he said to them, Follow me, and
          I  will  make  you  fishers  of  men.  And  they
          immediately left their nets, and followed him. 2
          If  my  people,  which  are  called  by  my

          name,  shall  humble  themselves,  and
          pray, and seek my face, and turn from their

          wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and
          will forgive their sin, and heal their land.

          3 God overlooked this in the times of ignorance;
          but  now  commands  all  men  everywhere  to

          repent:  Because  he  has  appointed  a  day,  in
          which he will judge the world in righteousness
          by that man whom he has ordained; of which
          he has given assurance to all men, in that
          he raised Him from the dead.


          4  They  said  unto  Peter  and  the  rest  of  the
          apostles, Men, and brethren, what shall we do?
