Luke 5:31-32
31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Repentance means a change of mind from unbelief TO belief in Christ. That's all. Christ did not make salvation hard. Repentance does NOT mean turning from sins when it comes to salvation. "Repent" is metanoia, which means "a change of mind". Christ did not put heavy burdens on people's shoulders. Turning from sin is an impossible task because we are in this body of flesh. We sin everyday in deed and in thought. Yes, we are called to live holy lives set apart for God and sin has its consequences in this life, but salvation is FREELY given and it's NOT something we earn by turning from our sins. The "repent of your sins" is a FALSE gospel from hell and will send you to hell if you base your salvation on "turning from your sins" (which will never happen).

2 Corinthians 11:3
But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the SIMPLICITY that is in Christ.

Galatians 2:16
16 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.

Matthew 11
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
