What does “repentance” mean?  We toss that word around....often with no regard to what it actually means.   Sometimes…..people “repent”---they correct their behavior because they’re sorry they got caught.  Or their worried that they will be punished.   They may agree they’ve done wrong, maybe even apologize for their actions, but then go right back to those actions.  

Other times…we see true repentance…where a person not only feels bad, but they genuinely realize their behavior was wrong.   They turn from their behavior, and they turn TO a correct mindset.    Today, we see a type of repentance, and I’m going to compare it to the other.   

As we look at today’s text, try to figure out with me which one is represented by the people in the text.
