In Matthew 3:2, the Message/MSG promotes unbiblical heresy of "change your life" to get saved.

Matthew 3:2 KJB
And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.✅💯📖

Matthew 3:2 MSG (the Message)
“Change your life. God’s kingdom is here.”❌😰

By changing "repent ye" (KJB) to "change your life" (Message/MSG), the Message/MSG:

💥Turns repentance into unbiblical works based salvationism
💥And makes salvation dependent on us sinners and our work instead of our salvation being only dependent and only based on the work of the sinless Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ at the cross and His death and resurrection.

"Change your life" (MSG/the Message by Eugene Peterson) is a work that does not save us.

Ephesians 2:8-9 KJB
[8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] not of works, lest any man should boast.📖

Galatians 2:16 KJB
Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.📖

Discard the corrupt MSG (Message) modern version, and get, read, and believe the KJB and its words.
