Rend Your Heart, Not Your Garments

Jeremiah Cox
06/15/25 - Sunday 1st Worship

Israel was being judged by God for their unfaithfulness. Jehovah called them to repentance through the prophet Joel, saying, "So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God" (Joel 2:13). Repentance is not merely an outward show (rending the garments), but a radical change of the inner man (rending the heart).
