True Donna! We must not quit sharing the Gospel. Even if we end the current medium (e.g. WP blog), we must continue sharing to other mediums/format/modality as there are many that needs to hear GOD’s offer of Salvation and the redemptive work of JESUS CHRIST so they will have faith too in Him. The clock is ticking. Blessings to you and your family!
Athens, with its philosophical thoughts and gods at that time, was a good impenetrable fortess that Paul went. He has succeeded proclaiming GOD’s grace with new converts whom GOD called, all because of GOD’s Sovereign hand. This actually reminds us of the wall of Jericho and Gideon (and maybe Hezekiah). It is encouraging to share the Gospel on missions, even someday we will face a figurative fortresses/obstacles like that, knowing that when we serve GOD, He is there. Blessings to you and your family!Blessings also in your sermon preparations.
We put our faith/trust in GOD that He will make the sharing of His Word possible, all according to His will/Sovereign purpose and for His sole glory. May GOD be there as you preach the Word, Pastor!
I think we are getting closer to the world being judged in righteousness. Let’s continue to share the gospel and contend for the faith once delivered to the saints.
A blessed Sunday Clark
You are right Crissy! We must continue to spread the Gospel as the end might be near. When the judgement day comes, there will be no second chances. May GOD use us all to spread the Gospel so that those whom GOD calls will be exposed to the Truth of the Triune GOD’s saving grace, His Salvation work and walk by faith in Him alone. Blessings to you, your family, and your ministry team/plans! Sì, en trianta minutos, I will say, tambien mi amiga!
Indeed! Time is of great importance because the words of Jesus in Matthew chapter 24 are fulfilled up to the coming of the antichrist — who is just around the corner. Wisdom from God is what we need everyday to sort out what’s happening. I’m watching closely at how the pandemic is being managed throughout the world. Looks like the precursor of 666. MANDATED injections. I’m also astonished at how dictatorial our US President is becoming. Fools without the wisdom of God will fall for all the edicts that are bombarding us….even passively ignoring the invasion of illegal aliens coming into our country by the millions. This is the agenda of Satan to over-turn the US of conservative votes in the next elections. We need to stand up and start telling it like it is. It’s not just left to Sean Hannity or Mark Levine to blow the whistle on cable news. It’s our job to blow the trumpet as long as we still have the media to do it. It won’t be long before we are censored and blocked out. Don’t miss your chance to speak up!
We can only pray! My apologies, Mary Cates but I’m a Filipino, residing in the Philippines. Also, I’m refraining from touching the politics of my country in the blog even if my fingers are so etching for it; let alone a domestic politics of another country. Even global survival issues (the meteorological hazards kind), with real life threatening significance/consequence particularly to poor countries, which I’m privately passionate about on politics, I only discussed it trice in this blog (this as the third time) as courtesy and to avoid alienating people who are also very firm and passionate on the “all/wholesale/package deal notion” (although I know of some here who treat it as an issue based than a wholesale political thing). My focus is on the Gospel. Blessings to you and your family!
There is no place to quit speaking the gospel for some will believe.
