No higher calling

 There is no higher calling in the world than to believe the gospel of grace and to preach it to humanity.

Nothing, absolutely nothing – can stop the gospel. It is the greatest force of the universe, and requires the utmost adoration, dedication and service. With it, humanity can be spared, without it, humanity is doomed.

Have you personally chosen Jesus Christ and believed on Him as Savior?

If so, you are part of redeemed humanity. You will never face the second death in the lake of fire, and you will be raptured before God pours out His wrath on this earth at the end of the tribulations.

You can rejoice that you, and other fellow believers, will be in Jesus’ glorious presence and kingdom very soon.

John 15 - Always abiding in Christ

 

An important lesson is to always abide in the word of God, the doctrine (preaching) that makes you grow, and helps you to produce spiritual fruit (soulwinning).

Without preaching, daily bible reading, and prayer, then you cannot have God’s power over your life to serve Him to the full.

The bible says ‘’For without me ye can do nothing’’. We must do it all for and with Jesus.

Life can be miserable for some, but it will be even more miserable in the end without proper labours for Christ.

The power of God is given to those who yield to His will.

Soulwinning is a universal ministry, committed to all believers. We must fill up the tree of life by winning all the souls of the world. The only way to do it is by ‘’enduring to the end’’, not for salvation, but for reward’s sake, knowing that our salvation is secure in the hands of God, and by receiving ‘’the preparation of the gospel of peace’’, that is, being thoroughly trained in one on one soulwinning and tract handling - and teaching others how to do it as well.

Justification is by faith alone

Justification is by faith alone - without and apart from works!

Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him (Jesus) that justifieth the ungodly (us sinners), his faith (or trust) is counted for righteousness (or moral perfection). v6. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth (counts) righteousness without (or apart from) works,

The Bible is very clear in Romans chapter 4, and elsewhere in the New Testament (especially in the writings of Paul), that salvation is, and always has been, by faith alone apart from works.

The only way for imperfect man to become righteous and enter Heaven is by receiving the imputed righteousness (or sinless perfection) of Jesus Christ, given to faith, and not to works of the law.

Romans chapters 3 and 4, as well as James chapter 2 verse 10 all refute the ''Faith without works is dead'' misapplied scripture. If righteousness were by the law, then man would need to be perfectly sinless to enter Heaven, and not to sin a single time in all of his life for him to be qualified. But the scripture ''has concluded all under sin'', so that ''the promise (of righteousness) by faith of (in) Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe'' (Galatians 3:22). Thus according to scripture, it is impossible to be saved by the works of law, for we are all sinful and imperfect.

Thus the only way for man to be saved and enter Heaven is to be justified (or declared righteous) by faith in Jesus' finished work on the cross (that is to accept His death, burial and resurrection as complete payment for our sins). There is no other condition or requirement.

By grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone - To God be the Glory.

A gospel tract testimony

A single person can win dozens, hundreds, or even thousands to Christ with simple tracts or on a one on one conversation over a lifetime. Alot of saved christians do virtually nothing to make it happen. The least anybody can do is pass out tracts with the romans road (Romans 3:23, 6:23, Romans 5:8 (or 1Peter 3:18) and Romans 10:9) and talk to people in their circle at first, on occasion, and then make it a lifelong habit trying to reach strangers at stores, parks, or wherever you're lead. God's word does not return void, so tracts are never in vain. They are a seed of truth, and for some, a seed of salvation. This is my vision and testimony about tracts and gospel articles. They are the soulwinner's best tool to reach as many people as possible. People who don't have time to listen to you will usually accept a tract and they can later on decide to believe or even have someone present the full gospel to them. Tracts with a link to a gospel video (such as bw2h.com) will lead people directly to salvation (John 20:31, Romans 10:17).

Remember Isaiah 55:10-11 - For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

God's word and tracts never return void. So share and translate tracts wherever you are, and someone will eventually get saved (he that hath ears to hear, let him hear) - be a voice! Make it your goal to hand out and put out tracts every week of your life, at least 3 per week, and try to find occasions where you can hand out more. Hand them out or leave them wherever you go.

Thanks to Bw2h.com for gospel videos and Jesusisprecious.org for great articles on salvation.

A hundred rules of life - christian perspective

 

Rules of life -

Do right, always – there is no excuse to do wrong, ever.

Do your best, or do a considerable effort – seek to excel

Live for others

Don’t procrastinate – take immediate action - do all or most of what you can do each day - start again where you left off, finish what you start

Don’t fear man – fear God and serve Him alone – be a prophet

Trust God – do not panic – faith over fear

Encourage and push yourself (push forward) – be confident in your abilities, talents, knowledge, values. Keep working on them until satisfaction is reached.

Be willing to learn (new things and skills)

Be content with what you have

Pray for power

Be willing to wait – learn to grow patience

Nihilism, at the end of the day, nothing matters (except the gospel and to preach it)

The power of habits – our habits shape our future- start small, do small things, and let them grow into big things (they are like a small garden that keeps expanding)! Do them everyday- master some and cultivate new ones.

Be disciplined – mind (and the Spirit) over the body.

Do not avoid too much – be willing to risk, make calculated risks (try to see the outcome of things)

Accept what you cannot control or change.
