In this powerful message, Pastor D. Mabote teaches on one of the foundational principles of the Christian faith — repentance from dead works. Many people perform religious acts without true change of heart. This teaching reveals how repentance is not about outward performance but an inward transformation that leads to genuine faith in Jesus Christ.

Through the Scriptures, Pastor Mabote explains that “dead works” are the actions we do trying to earn God’s favor without true faith or obedience. God calls us to turn away from self-effort and sin, and to embrace His grace through Christ.

📖 Key Scriptures:

Hebrews 6:1 – “Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God.”

Matthew 11:20 – “Then Jesus began to denounce the cities in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they did not repent.”

Acts 3:19 – “Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.”

Romans 2:4 – “God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance.”

2 Corinthians 7:10 – “Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret.”
