It might be expected for someone to look sorry when they are caught doing something wrong. You might even see tears and hear words of apology. But you might not be surprised if the shock of being caught wears off and so does the intensity of the repentance.

Real repentance looks different. God doesn’t want us to simply go through religious motions like some sort of show. God’s desire is that our repentance would demonstrate sincere sorry over sin. It might be unexpected, but God wants us to see the grace and forgiveness he has shown us in Christ, and in response, to love him back deeply and sincerely.

Sermon Text: Ezekiel 18:1–4, 25–32

Sermon Theme: The Lord’s Way Is Fair: Repent and Live!

Summary: When we accuse God of being unfair, He answers with mercy. His fairness is not found in punishment but in His invitation to repentance and life through Christ, the obedient Son.
