Verse: Mark 1:15

Quote:

14        Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

15        And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

 

Subject Repenting, not repenting, etc.:       The people who heard the preaching of Jesus.

 

Object of that repentance:    Repentance here is presented appositionally to belief in the gospel  That is, saving repentance is simply believing the gospel.  Because Jesus had not yet died for the sins of man, the hearers of His message would only be responsible for believing a lesser level of progressive revelation about Jesus.  In this context, that content of faith would probably be simply that Jesus was the promised Messiah.

 

Consequence of lack of repentance:            Not stated in the immediate context.  However, this verse is only separated by eleven verses from John the Baptist's call for repentance unto the remission of sins, it would be reasonable to infer the same consequence from Jesus' call to repentance.  One believes the gospel unto the remission of sins.
