Through Repentance to Faith Pt. 4

Derek Prince insists the Church has no authority to alter the New Testament message: repentance, water baptism, and receiving the Holy Spirit. Citing Mark 16:16 and the pattern in Acts, he argues salvation always includes baptism, and points to Paul's preaching in Athens (Acts 17:30-31) where God "commands all men everywhere to repent" because Jesus will one day judge the world in righteousness—a truth often omitted from modern preaching alongside the message of Jesus as Saviour.

Drawing on Paul's ministry in Ephesus (Acts 20:20-21), Prince highlights that the apostle "kept back nothing," consistently preaching repentance toward God before faith toward Christ. He explains from Isaiah 53:6 that all humanity has "turned to his own way," making repentance universally necessary, and shows from Psalm 80 and Lamentations 5:21 that true repentance is only possible when God Himself initiates the turning of the heart.
