‘Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.’ ” Luke 13:1-5 (KJB)
