Hello Everyone, 5

Your Bible says the Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which is lost. Salvation is the purpose. If you want an adventure, if you want to be a part of something that really counts, then pour your life into getting men saved and you’ll be glad when you come to the feet of Jesus.

You can let Wall Street handle the finances and let Washington handle the politics and let Hollywood handle the fame. You want to be a WINNER of souls. YOUR Bible says, “He that winneth souls is wise.” I am not ashamed of the purpose of the Gospel which is salvation.

I’ll tell you another thing, I am not ashamed of the POWER of the Gospel. “For it is the power of God unto salvation.” And the word “POWER” is the word we get our word dynamite from.

The “dunamis” of the Gospel and I am grateful for that divine dynamite. If sit on an atomic bomb and explode it they wouldn’t find any part of you to bury. But that could not blow the sin out of your heart.

I tell you there is a POWER that can make drunkards sober. There is a power that can make crooked men straight. There is a power that can make wicked men pure. Have you come in contact with that power?

The apostle Paul was not ashamed of the plan of the Gospel either. “. . . to every one that believes. . .” That’s it. That’s the plan. That is incredible. All of the rest of the religions of the world are spelled D-O. DO this, DO this, DO this. Ours is spelled d-o-n-e, done. It is finished. You put your faith where God has put your sins - on the Lord Jesus Christ.

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you’ll be saved.

The word doesn’t mean mere intellectually. It means trust.

I wouldn’t trust the best 15 minutes I ever lived to get me saved or to keep me saved. It is by GRACE through faith that the promise might be sure to all. Isn’t that a glorious gospel?

This gives us boldness to witness, because we've got something worth sharing. Everybody that you see is either saved or lost. If they are lost they are a prospect. If they are saved, they are a partner.

Let's make this year ALL about others.

I Am a Debtor. I am Ready. I am not Ashamed!

Oh How HE Loves Us!

Pastor Phil
