THE AMAZING GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST!!!
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believe………
There was the story of a boy who was asked by his mother what he had learned in Sabbath school that day. The boy describes the story of the Israelites exodus from Egypt, but when he came to the dramatic portion about the crossing of the Red Sea, here is how he told the story:
“Moses took out his walkie-talkie and called in the Israeli Air Force to bomb the Egyptians, while the others built a pontoon bridge to crossover the Red Sea.” The boy’s mother asked, “Is that how they told you the story?” He dropped his head and muttered, “Well, no, Mom, but if I told you the story the way they told it to me, you’d never believe it!”
Most of our sentiments exactly. 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:
Let’s start from the beginning in Genesis 1:1 where God created the heavens and the earth in seven days. Next let’s go to 
Exodus where seas part and millions of people traveled across on dry land. Now let’s go to the book of 2 Samuel where a teenager kills a giant named Goliath with a slingshot and a stone. But the most Amazing of all the stories in this book we call the holy Word, or Bible is the story about God himself. Who reincarnates His Son into a woman’s body.
His Son than lives a sinless life for thirty thee years and doing this time He performs many miracle, and at the same time He, proclaims the good news of the gospel. But then His on people have Him killed by Crucifixion, but for no other reason then proclaiming the truth that He was the Son of God.
After three days Jesus than raises Himself from the grave, and He does all of this for the sins of everyone who was ever created, and at the same time proclaiming before the universe that His ways are just, and based on love. And finally if we have faith and believe everything in His Holy Word, 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, but it is not for the saved Christian. We are beneficiaries of it, but the Gospel is for the lost. the sinner. The adulterous, lying, stealing, gossiping, murderous, covertness, greedy generation who are seeking a sign. In Mathew 12:39 it says An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign. My friends history tells us millions of martyrs died for this same gospel some of you are not proclaiming to the world today.
And also My friends most of the martyrs who died on the guillotines, burned at the stake, and were eaten by lions. were just common, mediocre men, and women like, you and I who experienced the transforming power of the holy Spirit, and just wanted to proclaim what Christ had done, and was doing in there lives as they were
“sinking deep in sin, Far from the peaceful shore, Very deeply stained within, Sinking to rise no more; But the Master of the sea Heard their despairing cry, From the waters He lifted them, and Now they can say without a doubt, safe am I. because Love lifted me! When nothing else could help Love lifted me!
My friends what a wonderful message to proclaim as you begin to tell how our loving Savior lifted you up and brought you to Safety in His loving, caring and merciful arms. Friends if you are willing to give it all for the Master the Bible will speak for itself through Gods Spirit. Because there is power in the Word!
1 John 2:14 says I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the Word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. My friends God is seeking FAITHFUL soldiers to proclaim THE AMAZING GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST!!! today. But My friends “I tell you, if you are silent, THE VERY STONES WILL PROCLAIM HIS NAME.”
So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
