GOD LOVED YOU SO MUCH THAT HE GAVE HIS SON TO DIE FOR YOU. THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO EXPERIENCE NEW LIFE!

GOD LOVED YOU SO MUCH THAT HE GAVE HIS SON TO DIE FOR YOU. THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO EXPERIENCE NEW LIFE. THE MOMENT THAT YOU TRULY ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR, NEW LIFE IS YOURS. THIS NEW LIFE INCLUDES NEWNESS IN THIS LIFE AS REVEALED IN GOD’S HOLY WORD, THE HOLY BIBLE. THIS NEWNESS INCLUDES ETERNAL LIFE IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD. (YOU NEVER STOP LIVING. EVEN AFTER PHYSICAL DEATH, YOU, THE REAL YOU, WILL LIVE SOMEWHERE. YOU WILL LIVE ETERNALLY IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD OR YOU WILL LIVE ETERNALLY SEPARATED FROM GOD, IN ETERNAL DAMNATION. THE CHOICE IS YOURS. PLEASE CHOOSE WISELY!)
“16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16 (King James Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

GOD LOVED, LOVES AND WILL FOREVER LOVE YOU. GOD’S LOVE FOR YOU IS UNFAILING!

“7 How precious is your steadfast love, O God!
The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.” Psalm 36:7 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

“8 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love
and his wonderful deeds for mankind,” Psalm 107:8 (New International Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

“38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

New life awaits you. GOD HAS MADE THE PRECIOUS GIFT OF SALVATION AVAILABLE TO YOU. Here is how to accept this precious gift:
“9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:9-:10 (King James Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

We Must Compel People To Come To GOD. (041622)

Followers of CHRIST, we must be about our FATHER’S BUSINESS. We must compel people to come to GOD. (We must be passionate in our efforts to lead people to GOD, into a relationship with GOD. We must be passionate in our pursuit of souls. Heaven is Real. So is hell.)

“The Parable of the Great Banquet
12 He said also to the man who had invited him, “When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers[b] or your relatives or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return and you be repaid. 13 But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, 14 and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”

15 When one of those who reclined at table with him heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is everyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of God!” 16 But he said to him, “A man once gave a great banquet and invited many. 17 And at the time for the banquet he sent his servant[c] to say to those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’ 18 But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. Please have me excused.’ 19 And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to examine them. Please have me excused.’ 20 And another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.’ 21 So the servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house became angry and said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’ 22 And the servant said, ‘Sir, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.’ 23 And the master said to the servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled. 24 For I tell you,[d] none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.’”” Luke 14:12-:23 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

How Can We Know That We Will Have The Petitions That We Desire Of GOD?

“14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

15 And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.” I John 5:14-:15 (King James Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

I Will Bless The Lord At All Times: His Praise Shall Continually Be In My Mouth

“34 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.

3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

8 O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

9 O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.

11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?

13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.

14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

15 The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.

16 The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

17 The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.

20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.

21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.

22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.” Psalm 34:1-:22 (King James Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

Acknowledge GOD in All Your Ways and HE WILL DIRECT YOUR PATH!

“5
Trust in and rely confidently on the Lord with all your heart
And do not rely on your own insight or understanding.
6
[b]In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognize Him,
And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way].
7
Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord [with reverent awe and obedience] and turn [entirely] away from evil.
8
It will be health to your body [your marrow, your nerves, your sinews, your muscles—all your inner parts]
And refreshment (physical well-being) to your bones.” Proverbs 3:5-:8 (Amplified Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

Worship THE LORD and serve HIM with REVERENCE.

“10
Now therefore, O kings, act wisely;
Be instructed and take warning, O leaders (judges, rulers) of the earth.
11
Worship the Lord and serve Him with reverence [with awe-inspired fear and submissive wonder];
Rejoice [yet do so] with trembling.
12
Kiss (pay respect to) the [d]Son, so that He does not become angry, and you perish in the way,
For His wrath may soon be kindled and set aflame.
How blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] are all those who take refuge in Him!” Psalm 2:10-:12 (Amplified Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

“Jesus Begins His Ministry
14 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and a report about him went out through all the surrounding country. 15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. 17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written,

18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives
and recovering of sight to the blind,
to set at liberty those who are oppressed,
19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

20 And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. 21 And he began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”” Luke 4:14-:20 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)

3)
JESUS came that you might have life and have it more abundantly.
“10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” John 10:10 (English Standard Version of THE HOLY BIBLE)
