Interpretation of the Bible / Matthew 3:2

Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.

In this Bible verse we can find a very important phrase that calls us to repent and prepare to receive the Kingdom of Heaven. But what does it really mean to repent?

Repentance is a process that involves acknowledging our sins, feeling pain for them, and changing our lifestyle. It is an act of humility that encourages us to draw closer to God and seek His forgiveness.

The Kingdom of Heaven refers to the place where God reigns and where His children will be received after their death. But it is also a state of grace that we can achieve here on earth by living according to God's commandments. It is a state of peace, love, and happiness that we can experience if we draw closer to God and follow His teachings.
