What Does Repent Mean?

The sermon explores the theological significance of the Hebrew word 'repent,' challenging conventional understandings of God's immutability by examining passages like Genesis 6 and Exodus 32. It argues that 'repent' in these contexts doesn't signify a change in God's nature, but rather a response to human action, with a focus on how individuals can become agents of comfort and restoration in difficult circumstances. Ultimately, the message emphasizes the importance of studying Scripture diligently to discern its nuances and highlights Jesus Christ as the ultimate source of comfort and redemption, demonstrating that God's plan remains consistent even amidst human failings.
