Scripture Reading of The Day
From the Living Bible Online.
Romans 10:4-17
They don’t understand that Christ gives to those who trust in him everything they are trying to get by keeping his laws. He ends all that.
For Moses wrote that if a person could be perfectly good and hold out against temptation all his life and never sin once, only then could he be pardoned and saved. But the salvation that comes through faith, says, “You don’t need to search the heavens to find Christ and bring him down to help you,” and “You don’t need to go among the dead to bring Christ back to life again.”
For salvation that comes from trusting Christ—which is what we preach—is already within easy reach of everyone of us; in fact, it is as near as our own hearts and mouths.
For if you tell others with you own mouth that Jesus Christ is your Lord, and believe in your own heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in his heart that a man becomes right with God; and with his mouth he tells others of his faith, confirming his salvation. For the Scriptures tell us that no one who believes in Christ will ever be disappointed. Jew and Gentile are the same in this respect: they all have the same Lord who generously gives his riches to all those who ask him for them. Anyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.
But how shall they ask him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? And how will anyone go and tell them unless someone sends him? That is what the Scriptures are talking about when they say, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Gospel of peace with God and bring glad tidings of good things. In other words, how welcome are those who come preaching God’s Good News!
But not everyone who hears the Good News has welcomed it, for Isaiah the prophet said, “Lord, who has believed me when I told them?”
Yet faith comes from listening to this Good News—The Good News about Christ!
Sam’s Response
I sure am glad I live after the first coming of Christ. All of us are sinners and I certainly have a track record behind me that if I choose to look at I can see the deep connection to how I was living in the past and ignorant to the Word of God and Salvation.
Then I came to the Lord, I professed and I believe that Jesus Christ Died and on the 3rd Day he rose again to the heavens.
I believe right now that Jesus through the Holy Spirit is in me. Guiding me, changing me, stretching me and through the Holy Scriptures I am growing and moving towards perfection in Christ. I know I will never reach perfection here on Earth as this is not my home. I am here as we all are for a short time. When I die, or Jesus returns in the 2nd coming of Christ, I will be changed instantly, in the twinkling of an eye. My tired all run down body will be transformed to a heavenly body that will never wear out.
O How Joyous is that!
The Good News is before us and revealed to us through the Word of God. We can come to Christ Broken and full of sin and God Will forgive and pardon us. He blots it out and says just believe and Love me. Love my son Jesus.
Just believe!
There is a ton of power in those word’s
Do you believe?
There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to destruction.
We are our own worst eneimies, buying into what this world says is right. But many are being fooled into these lies and are taken away from God’s Holy Word. It is really sad to see, but yet the possibilities for touching and sharing with people is endless.
The Internet (for now) is available to tell the World about Christ. It is opening a channel that was never hear.
Last night I was looking at the stats of the site http://wordofgodonline.com and I realized that the Gospel of Christ is reaching all the corners of the earth. Jesus said he will not return till the Word has spread to all the nations…
Well, it looks like the time that the Word can be brought and shared with everyone is now here….
This is one major reason why I believe we are in the very last days before the return of our Savior.
If you are not saved, I invite you to call me anytime day or night…and we can talk about your salvation.
