Luke 3
Yesterday, we read about the announcement of John's conception by the Angel Gabriel. Today's passage begins his public ministry. He calls people to repentance. When they ask "Then what shall we do?", he is very specific with them. He offers instruction in generosity in verse 11, in verses 12-13 he tells tax collectors to be honest, and in verse 14 speaks to soldiers about their behavior. Repentance is not just saying we are sorry, it is changing the way we live. With each group John instructs them in how to change the way they are living. How would John challenge you to change your life?
