Matthew 11:20 - 11:24

Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In Matthew 11:20-24, Jesus rebukes the cities of Corazin and Bethsaida for not repenting after witnessing his miracles. The speaker, Steve Gregg, explains that repentance means a change of mind and direction in one's life. Failing to repent after being given the opportunity puts a grave responsibility on those who reject the light. Jesus teaches that those who reject the gospel will be judged less severely but still be held accountable for not recognizing the handiwork of God.
