Repent or Perish

1 There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood ^pPilate had mingled with their sacrifices. 2 And he answered them, ^q“Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered in this way? 3 No, I tell you; but unless you ^rrepent, you will all likewise perish.

7 Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who ^jrepents than over ninety-nine ^krighteous persons who need no repentance.
