The Book of Acts in Chapter 20: 35 tells us that Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
Living Word’s ministry is all about the joy and privilege of giving and sharing whatever “graces” we have received.
God has made us understand that we have been blessed, undeserving as we are, to be a blessing to people, communities, cities, provinces, our nation, and other nations that God will allow us to connect with.
Our failure to obey God — to be holy — places us in danger of eternal punishment.
The truth is, we cannot obey Him because we have neither the desire nor the ability to do so.
We are by nature rebellious toward God.
The Bible calls our rebellion sin. We have the propensity to disobey the Word of God
There is no man who does not sin
According to Scripture, everyone is guilty of sin
All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.
We are incapable of changing our sinful condition.
Will you repent and believe Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?
Jesus is the only one who can forgive and transform us, thereby delivering us from the power and penalty of sin: There is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12).
Even though God’s justice demands death for sin, His love has provided a Savior, who paid the penalty and died for sinners: Christ died for sins once for all, the just for the unjust, in order that he might bring us to God” (1 Peter 3:18).
Christ’s death satisfied the demands of God’s justice, thereby enabling Him to forgive and save those who place their faith in Jesus and not in their good works. (Romans 3:26)
John 3:16 says, God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. He alone is “our great God and Savior” (Titus 2:13).
True saving faith is always accompanied by repentance from sin.
Repentance is more than simply being sorry for sin. It is agreeing with God that you are sinful, confessing your sins to Him, and making a conscious choice to turn from sin and pursue holiness (Isaiah 55:7).
You turn to Jesus as Lord by submitting to His authority through obedience.
Jesus said: If you abide in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine (John 8:31).
And what makes the gospel good news to us is only because Jesus is no longer dead but alive.
He rose from the grave to prove that God’s wrath and holiness is satisfied and that He is the true Messiah.
