Why Christians have not changed the world.
SATAN HAS BLINDED THE EYES OF MULTITUDES OF GOOD CHRISTIANS.
This has come to a head in the past month and I must reason with you about it.
1. We are not giving the one thing that will change people and the whole world but we think we are. Recently I heard a couple of good Christians telling how they were witnessing to some unsaved and they told the person what all the Lord meant to them and how much they loved Him and how He changed their lives. Not once did they tell him how to be saved.
2. Several times recently I heard Christians tell how they gave lost people the gospel and quoted over and over John 3:16. Excuse me but John 3:16 does not contain one word of the gospel the gospel which alone is "the power of God unto salvation." Rom 1:16. That lost person does not have a clue what "God gave His only begotten son" means. Not once did they tall how the Lord Jesus suffered and died for our sins, was buried, rose again and was seen by hundreds.
3. I have heard this hundreds of times as I heard several times recently on TV how Christ died on the cross. Those two thieves also died on a cross but that is not the gospel. What those thieves did had nothing to do with saving anyone. the gospel is Christ died for our sins. Sin is the problem. The gospel is Christ died for those sins, paid the debt in full.
4. Then so often preachers and people say "Christ died for us".
Those dear military people are dying for us but NOT FOR OUR SINS and that is the good news, the GOSPEL that will save and change a person into a new creature. The bottom line is we must tell the plain pure gospel which is "the power of God unto salvation." Rom 1:16. The Biblical pure gospel is "How Christ died for our sins, was buried, rose again and was seen of hundreds." 1 Cor 15:1-5. If you add to it or take away you are in serious danger of the anathema of God. You must read Gal 1:6-10.
I LOVE YOU. ABC Sumner 1 Jn 3:2.
