What I think about that

Hi everyone! I wanted to tell you what I think about God and some other thoughts. I want to preach/teach the word of God, "The Gospel of Peace", namely Jesus Christ.

If you aren't preaching Jesus, then you aren't preaching the Gospel. Simple enough, but many preachers just preach truths: facts: scripture. This may sound good, but saying, "You're going to hell if you don't believe on Jesus" is TRUTH, it is a FACT and from SCRIPTURE, but it is not what you are suppose to be preaching.

Mark 13:10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.

We are to preach THE truth (not a bunch of truths). That is to say...Jesus Christ and his love. If you aren't doing it in love, then you're doing it in vain is what Corinthians says.

We are to go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature. So the question is, what is the Gospel? I think scripture sums it up best in Romans 1:16

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth...

The gospel emphasizes God's grace. The gospel is OF CHRIST. This should be the emphasis of every minister. That Christ loves you soooooooo much that He saved you through His grace!

Some may say you have to preach holiness, righteousness,diligence, virtue, patience, or godliness...this list goes on and on. But the bible says that if you lack all of these things, that you have forgotten you were purged from your sins. And your sins were purged because of the mercy of God.

And we cannot understand God's mercy until we understand His Love: Jesus Christ IS love.

Whoa people! IF we just understood all God's done for us, we wouldn't sin. The love of God would prevent that! You don't have to teach godliness, just the love of God. If you understand God's love through Jesus Christ then you'll live godly and holy.

I won't type super long posts all the time, but this message inside me types out of my fingers so readily that I find it hard to stop declaring the love of Jesus. So, remember that you can never do anything to make Jesus stop loving you. It's His nature, and God never changes, not even for you :)
