MY FRIENDS, LET’S TELL THE WORLD THE GOOD NEWS!!!
Whenever we read the Bible, we are suddenly thrust into a world which seems out of touch with the reality of what we as humans consider real or believable. For instance. Let’s take a few stories from the Word of God: First story, A world where the world we live in was created in seven days.
A world where seas part and where millions of people traveled across on dry ground, a world where one man is able to kill a thousand men with the jawbone of an ass, a world where a teenager kills a giant with a slingshot and a stone, a world where a man is swallowed by a big fish and lives in his belly for three days before the fish spits him out.
A world where Three men are thrown into a furnace of fire, and never get burned, a world where a man is put in a den of hungry lions and they refuse to touch Him. But the ultimate, and most distant of all the stories out of this world that is found in this book we call His holy word.
Is the story about God Himself. Who reincarnates His Son into a woman’s body, He’s then born in a manger here on earth. Where He lives a sinless life for thirty three years, and doing this time He performs many miracles and at the same time He, proclaims THE GOOD NEWS OF THE GOSPEL.
Then His on ancestry kills Him by Crucifixion on a hill called Calvary. Jesus is then resurrected from the grave, and He 
does all of this for our Salvation. But only if we believe in His Word, and the power of His Spirit, and of course endure to the end.
Because if we do endure, one day soon we will go to live with him in a far away place in the sky called heaven for eternity where sin will no longer exist. My friends, I just repeated to you, the good news of the gospel, who was proclaimed by the early Christians who were only common mediocre men or woman who had experienced the transforming power of the holy Spirit in their lives, as they proclaimed the GOOD NEWS of what Christ had done, and was doing for them at that particular time.
Friends if you plan to give it all to the Master and serve Him the Bible will speak through you and Gods Spirit as everyone around you will see you are not of this world because once Christ becomes a part of your life you begin to put on the character of Christ.
My friends there is power in the Word! So, let’s all say with Paul, “I AM NOT ASHAME OF THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST.” Because as Christians if we stand up for God we need never to be ashame of our Christian faith because of God’s promises in Romans 5:5 it tells us
“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.” Romans 10:11 also says For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame” “What then shall we say to these things?
If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn?
Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword Romans 8:31-39
My friends Christ has given it all up for us so let’s never be ASHAME to tell the world THE GOOD NEWS of our Saviors love grace and mercy. Because God’s children will receive that all consuming power if they have faith when “the Holy Spirit comes on them; as they begin to witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” And one day Christ will tell each of His faithful, WELL DONE, enter into my kingdom.
So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
