John 5:24

24 "I assure you, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life.  (NLT)

 

Is not this wonderful? Jesus assures us that when we believed and received His gospel that we have eternal life and have passed from death into life. God will not ever condemn us for our sins because Christ’s blood has covered our sins. This does not give us permission to go and sin more, but to be transformed into the image and likeness of Jesus Christ. Is not this wonderful? This is good news that we need to share with others, for they are condemned to death. We have been chosen and called to continue sharing the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

John 3:31-36

31 "He has come from above and is greater than anyone else. I am of the earth, and my understanding is limited to the things of earth, but he has come from heaven.   32 He tells what he has seen and heard, but how few believe what he tells them! 33 Those who believe him discover that God is true. 34 For he is sent by God. He speaks God's words, for God's Spirit is upon him without measure or limit. 35 The Father loves his Son, and he has given him authority over everything. 36 And all who believe in God's Son have eternal life. Those who don't obey the Son will never experience eternal life, but the wrath of God remains upon them."  (NLT)

 

Jesus is from above and is greater than anyone, we are from the earth and our understanding is limited. That is why Jesus sent His Holy Spirit to guide us and to instruct us. We have the assurance that He is with us always. When we receive the gospel and the Lord Jesus we receive the call to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone. As we are obedient to the Son of God we experience eternal life and those who do not experience the wrath of God upon them. For us it is given to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to those who will listen and to those who do not. For some who do not believe we may be planting a seed or watering a planted seed or a ray of sunlight before the harvest. Do not be discouraged of those who do not believe but continue to pray for them and to proclaim Jesus as Lord and Savior.

Mark 16:15-17

15 And then he told them, "Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone, everywhere.  16 Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned. (NLT)

 

As we go about in this life that God has given us to live we are to be continually sharing the Good News to everyone and everywhere. We must be ready at all times to share Jesus -- that is why we need to know and to memorize scripture. We need to be ready to give the account of what Jesus has done for the entire world and how much He loves them. We need to ready to plant the seed of salvation, ready to water the seed that has been planted and ready to harvest. Jesus has said, Look around you! Vast fields are ripening all around us and are ready now for the harvest. Share, Plant, Water and Harvest, lead them to Jesus.

1 Corinthians 15:3-5

3 I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me — that Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. 4 He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, as the Scriptures said. (NLT)

 

The gospel was passed on to Paul and it has been passed on to us as well. Now that the gospel has been passed on to you, what are you doing with it? Are you sharing? Are you passing it on to the next generation? We are to pass on the gospel to others. We are to give it away. We are not to keep it to ourselves. Have you heard the phrase “Pay it forward”? That is what we are to be doing “Paying it forward.” Sharing the gospel from a sincere heart, for the gospel is a matter of the heart. Therefore pay it forward by sharing your life and testimony that Jesus died for you, was buried for you and was raised from the dead on the third day, as the Scriptures have said. Some will receive the good news and some will reject it. Do not be discouraged, but praise the Lord for those who receive the good news.

John 14:6

6 Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me. (NLT)

 

“I am the way,” the way is a path and that path only leads to Jesus. “The Truth,” Jesus is the truth and the truth can only be found in Jesus. “The Life,” Jesus is the life, true life, real purposeful and meaningful life is found only in Jesus. The Father designed salvation to be through Jesus and only through Jesus. This verse is a verse to be used when you share your faith in Jesus with others to show them the pathway to Jesus. Jesus loves you, will lead you on the right path, will always tell you the truth and He is the only one who can fill the void in your life and give your life meaning and purpose.

John 3:16-17 16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.  17 God did not send his Son into the world to condemn it, but to save it.  (NLT)   Salvation is based in love. If we do not love how then can we share our faith? It would be empty. If we look down on others how can we honestly share Christ? The world is already condemned and we too were condemned and we were saved through the love of Jesus Christ; therefore we are to love as Christ loves us. God loves His creation so much that He sent His only Son to die for you personally and for everyone He created who believes. God did not exclude anyone but has called everyone. Sadly, not everyone will come. We do not know who will come but we are to share with everyone for this is what God has called us to do. We are to share as Jesus shared His life with others. Jesus did not come into this world to condemn it, but to save it. We are still in this world so we are to continue to share our lives with others (unbelievers) and we are to continue to share our love and faith in Jesus Christ. Do not cover the light of Christ within you but let the light shine openly to the world. Do not be timid but be bold in your sharing for Jesus is with you always and the Holy Spirit will give you the words to speak.   Engage the Present – Create the Future – With Jesus Christ

John 1:12-13

12 But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. 13 They are reborn! This is not a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan — this rebirth comes from God. (NLT)

 

How is one reborn? To be reborn is not an act of the flesh or by human means, but it is an act of the Holy Spirits work within a person. No one could be reborn if Jesus had not come, died on the Cross and was resurrected from the dead. Through His act of grace the Holy Spirit then began the work of spiritual rebirth. This is God’s plan of Salvation to all who believe Him and accept Him that is the work of Jesus Christ through the cross. It is the work of the Holy Spirit to draw people to Christ. Our part is to be willing to be used by the Holy Spirit to speak the words that will lead a person to Christ. We need to be willing and ready to be used to the glory of God in this work of Salvation. A person has the right to become a child of God when they believe on the work of Christ, have accepted that Christ died for their sins, was buried and rose from grave that they can have new life. To be reborn into the new life with Jesus is the greatest gift of all.

Words of Encouragement

                                                                   

Proverbs 11:30

30 The godly are like trees that bear life-giving fruit, and those who save lives are wise. (NLT)

 

Saving souls is the main business of the Christian Minister (which each one of us is a minister) and it should be the main focus of every believer. Christ came to save that which was lost and He gave that ministry to us to carry on until His return. As believers Christ lives within us and He plants within us the life-giving fruit that we are to share with lost. This life-giving fruit is Jesus Himself, His death, His burial and His resurrection. Some will accept the life-giving fruit and some will reject it. Do not be discouraged when some reject the fruit, but continue to share boldly as Christ did.
