Why does Jesus tell us to repent

Jesus says:

Luke 13
verse 3
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

He then repeats his warning in verse 5
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

From his own mouth he tells you you must repent, agree with him and stop sinning or you will likewise perish.  He said this to his disciples, his friends, he means no less for you. 

You are not saved by grace alone .... his blood does not allow you to continue in sin. You must do as he says and repent. 


Jesus is not a liar.
