“The Gospel: The Power of God Unto Salvation”

“The Gospel: The Power of God Unto Salvation”

Blessings folk!

The organizational “church” has a real problem.

For the most part, the organizational, religious “church” has rejected the gospel.

Too many emphasize the “distinctive doctrines of man”.
Too many give greater heed to their own documents than the Word.
Too many refuse to preach the good news of the gospel.

Beware!

If emphasis is upon “denominational doctrine”…
If emphasis is upon “membership”…
If emphasis is upon “baptism”…
If emphasis is upon “bible study”…
If emphasis is upon “small groups”…

If anything is taught or spoken about more than the gospel, beware.

Sadly, such is the norm.

Many shrewdly skim around and skip upon “gospel” words, themes, Bible passages, yet they do not preach/teach (live?) the basic foundational truths.

Know this…

The gospel…the Good News of Jesus’ incarnation, life, death, burial and resurrection…is the power of God.

Rom 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.


When we believe this message…
When we repent…
When we confess…sin…
When we confess Jesus as Savior/Lord…
We are saved.
The power of the gospel of what the Lord has done for us.

Tragically one rarely hears the gospel.
We experience entire baptism gatherings and never hear the gospel referenced.
We experience worship times when the Word is judicially avoided.
We are berated with “stories”, “examples”, “relevant issues”.

Such will not save.
Only the gospel.

The world is dying because we refuse to preach/teach/proclaim/live the gospel.

1Th 1:2-5

We give thanks to God always for all of you, making mention of you in our prayers;

constantly bearing in mind your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the presence of our God and Father,

knowing, brethren beloved by God, His choice of you;

for our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction; just as you know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.

It is time for the gospel to come in word.
It is time for the gospel to come in power.
It is time for the gospel to come in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction.
It is time to prove that we are people of the Word.

Quit playing religious games

Repent, then press on…
