The Downfall


Remember that if there's only one truth then all other truths must be false. Sometimes we mix our personal beliefs with God's word in order to justify what we believe. But if God's word is absolute, only one thing can remain and that is the truth of the Word of God. All isms, ideologies and personal beliefs come second to that. This is detrimental to the state of the believer. There are moments where we want to administer the gospel to people but due to the fact that we are wrapped up in our own beliefs, we do the Word of God a disservice. We deliver it from a place of insecurity. I'm talking about the "this is how I feel" kind of gospel. The kind of gospel that only talks about the blessings of God but never challenges the heart of the man or woman. The kind of gospel that talks about what we can get out of God bt never about what God free;y gives us. Salvation through Jesus Christ. 

I believe that hen we take personal beliefs and isms and mix them with the gospel of Jesus Christ, we're making a huge mistake. Whether these beliefs are cultural or passed down to us by our ancestors, we should e careful not to allow those things to get in between the gospel and the people who need to hear it. 

If Jesus came to earth to present a feel-good gospel, no one would make it to heaven. If Jesus came to earth to share how He personally felt, no one would see the light. Instead, He prayed that God's Kingdom would come and that God's will would be done. Keeping this in mind. it allowed Him to be able to live a sinless life. For the joy set before Him, he knew that personal feelings couldn't get in the way of our salvation. He cared about the souls of the people He would redeem. He cared enough about the souls He would reconcile back to the Father. 

He tells us to repent and be baptized because the Kingdom of God is at hand. He tells us to turn away from our wicked ways and believe. It's not the feel-good kind of gospel that we're so often used to hearing, but it's the true gospel that will save many souls. so I challenge you today, as a representative of Jesus to share the true gospel of Jesus Christ. Not the version that's based on your feelings. But the version that wins lost souls.


Jesus is God

Corona Virus Tagged Our World With Our Feet Off Base

It's like a tough game when we try to play fair We didn't know that this fearful crisis was ever so near  It came in with a sudden blast, we had no clue  But no one really knew what to do It struck like lightning way up in the sky and shook the world with people from far and nigh It clapped like thunder, what a massive sound It twisted the world like a spinning wheel going round and round We are unable to determine when this invisible virus will no longer be around  Morning, noon and midnight lurching down on us without a sound It didn't come like snowflakes that quickly melted away It didn't come through the night and vanished by the break of day But it came almost as quick as the bat of an eye as swift as a rainbow moves in the sky As we continue with this challenge not knowing the outcome We are grateful and appreciative of what others have done We can stand and rest assure that GOD is bigger than any virus we know And he wil...

Become What You Believe | Purpose Of Faith

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!” When He had gone indoors, the blind men came to Him, and He asked them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” “Yes, Lord,” they replied. Then He touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith let it be done to you”; and their sight was restored. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one knows about this.” But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region.  ~Matthew 9:27-31 •God gives us faith to become what we believe because of the word that is spoken into our lives. He gives us faith to believe that He is capable of doing what we desire for Him to do for us. •Our response should always be yes to His will. Our response should be yes to His power to do what we believe He will do. • The blind men became healed because they believed in Jesus' power to heal. Their faith was made complete because they believed that He was capable of heali...
