Religion & Spirituality
We are involved in something that will still be worthwhile a million years from now because God has not revoked the great commission. Jesus said, “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world for a witness to all the nations, and then the end shall come” (Matthew 24:14). Today the kingdom of God is realized as we proclaim the crucified, risen, and returning Lord Jesus Christ. The gospel is the good news of the kingdom of God that has come in the person and work of Jesus Christ. How do we enter into the kingdom of God? There is only one way. “Repent of your sins and believe on Jesus Christ.” That is the message we preach. Our message is the gospel of free grace. It is what God has accomplished for us in the sacrificial atoning death of Jesus Christ for our sins. We offer the gospel freely “without money and without cost” (Isa. 55:1). John Ryle once said, “Men are apt to forget that it does not require great open sins to be sinned in order to ruin a soul forever. They have only to give hearing without believing, listening without repenting, going to church without going to Christ, and by and by they will find themselves in hell.” It is imperative that we make the message of salvation crystal clear in our presentations. Salvation is the gift of God and it is “by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves.” God has provided everything we need in order to be saved. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved” (Acts 16:31). But also be assured, “Reject Jesus Christ, and you will perish forever.” Every time we share that message we are personally involved in what God is doing in building His eternal kingdom. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/christian-rider-ministry/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/christian-rider-ministry/support
