John the Baptist’s first words in Matthew 3:2—Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand—hold an explosive meaning. Jesus later repeated this exact phrase (Matthew 4:17), linking repentance to God’s coming kingdom. But why did John dress like Elijah (Matthew 3:4), and why did Jesus say Elijah must come first (Matthew 17:10–12)? Discover how John’s ministry fulfills Malachi 4:5 and foreshadows Revelation 11’s two witnesses, who will also preach repentance before Christ’s return.

Dive into the God-intended meaning of repentance (Greek: metanoeō, Strong’s G3340)—a radical "change of mind" that transforms actions. Learn why Jesus warned Unless you repent, you will all perish (Luke 13:3) and how true repentance involves:

1. Intellectual Recognition (Ezekiel 18:30)

2. Emotional Conviction (2 Corinthians 7:10)

3. Volitional Turnaround (Luke 3:8–14).
