I Never Tire of this emphasis--- and neither should you!

We are commissioned to preach the gospel-GOOD NEWS

Sumner Wemp

We are commissioned to "Preach the gospel" Mk 16:15. What a privilege

This divides the winners from the losers. Satan won't care if you talk about religion, or your church or how wonderful Jesus is to you but he is terribly bothered when you tell how the Lord Jesus suffered and "died for our sins, paid the debt in full, was buried, rose again and seen by hundreds" 1 Cor 15:1-4. for this "full" gospel is the "power of God unto salvation" to everyone who hears and believes this to get them to heaven. Rom 1:16.

Please be discerning but not divisive. Read tracts, listen to sermons and it will shock you how the gospel is not presented clearly, completely and Biblically. The gospel is not that Christ died on a cross, those two thieves died on a cross. It is not that Christ died for us, those dear military people are dying for us. The gospel, the good news is that Christ DIED FOR OUR SINS. That is the whole problem, we are all in he same boat, we had all sinned and the wages of sin is death. He paid the debt in full. He was buried for three days, proof He was dead. He rose again and was seen by hundreds of people, proof that He was alive. You cannot stress this too much. It must be said over and over for people to catch on.

It is so important that we really believe we have good news, the best news ever, to tell people. If you were in your bank and the manager asked, "Isn't Bill next door to you a good friend?"
You would reply, "He is my best friend."
The banker then said, "He just inherited a million dollars. Would you go tell him the good news?" You would not say, "Well that is a personal matter, I don't want to butt into his personal affairs."

Like some fun. You would run like mad and holler out, "Bill, I have some good news. You just inherited a million dollars." We must look at witnessing in the same way. I am passionate about having the best news anyone ever heard. People will catch this when you have the same attitude about witnessing. It makes a world of difference.

II Cor. 4:3-4 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
4:7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

I LOVE YOU, ABC Sumner
