Acts 9:5 ‘…But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel…’ AKJV
Ephesians 2:8 ‘…For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God…’ AKJV
Romans 10:9 ‘…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…’ AKJV
Jesus, use me to help voice the message You have given us written in Your Word. Help those out there in this world today that want so much to see Your Message but because of Satan, their eyes have been hardened so they may not be able to see. Allow me Jesus to be that softening agent that might allow Your Voice to be heard to those that Amen.
The Bible verses we’re going to use this morning are:
Romans 1:16; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, 9:16; Romans 10:9; Galatians 1:6-9; Acts 9:15; Galatians 1:11-12; 1 Corinthians 15:50, :51-52.
We’re going to continue last weeks lesson on how we need to speak up and share our gift with those around us.
Romans 1:16 ‘…For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek…’ AKJV
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John were gospels written to the Jewish believer and also to the Orthodox Jew they wished to convert.
These four synoptic gospels were not written for us today in the 21st century.
The Gospel that was written for us today, most people don’t even know it’s in our Bibles.
1 Corinthians 15
vs1 ‘…Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand…’
vs2 ‘…by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain…’
vs3 ‘…For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures…’
vs4 ‘…and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures…’ AKJV
This is the Gospel of Christ written by the apostle Paul, chosen by the Ascended Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 9:16 ‘…For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel…’ AKJV
Here is a newer version of this verse:
‘…I tell God’s good news to people. But I have no reason to be proud because of that. It is something that I have to do. If I did not tell the good news, it would bring me great trouble…’ EASY
Each one of us should grab onto this verse and know that that should be the way we approach speaking about Jesus and our future.
We should, with confidence reach out and share our beliefs and our blessings onto those we love and meet.
Remember the verse I shared last week:
Romans 10:9 ‘…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…’ AKJV
Confess the Jesus that you know.
Confess the Gospel that is going to save you from Everlasting Torment and Destruction.
Confess Jesus’ CHOICE.
As I spoke in our last lesson, there are so many in this world today that are lost and confused.
Satan has polluted this world into believing words that have never meant to do anything for us.
There are individuals today that recite verse after verse of Scripture that has been solely meant for the Jewish individual.
Scripture that has been meant for us to learn from but never meant for us to FOLLOW.
Galatians 1
vs6 ‘…I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel…’
vs7 ‘…which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ…’
vs8 ‘…But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed…’
vs9 ‘…As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed…’ AKJV
What other gospel you might ask and I’m talking about the four synoptic gospels by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
These gospels have not been written to or for us today.
This is what Paul faced here in the church in Galatia, that he wrote about in the book of Galatians.
Read the words he wrote trying to teach us.
There were Jews that infiltrated into the church to spew their lies, the same way our churches today are teaching lies, man-made stories trying to get you to look away from what has been written and not see what God wants for us to see.
OPEN YOUR BIBLES AND READ THE WORD GOD WANTS FOR US TO HEAR.
I continuously repeat this verse found in Acts.
Acts 9:15 ‘…But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel…’ AKJV
Jesus, after His crucifixion, burial and resurrection, after His ascension up into heaven to sit at the right hand of His Father, Jesus returned back to this earth and confronted Saul of Tarsus on his way to Damascus to capture those believing Jews and return them back to Jerusalem so he could turn them in.
This Jesus CHOSE Saul to teach the entire world about Himself and His Father God.
This Gospel given to us by Paul is not of his own imagination. It’s not a repeat or a different version of the four synoptic gospels but rather it is from a Revelation that was given to him by Jesus Christ Himself.
Galatians 1
vs11 ‘…But I certify you, brethren, that the Gospel which was preached of me is not after man…’
vs12 ‘…For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ…’ AKJV
Jesus showed Paul what to write for us to see.
1 Corinthians 15:50 ‘…Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption…’ AKJV
This same kingdom of God was taught in the four synoptic gospels, known as the kingdom gospels.
But Paul continues and begins to explain the mystery.
1 Corinthians 15
vs51 ‘…Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed…’
vs52 ‘…in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed…’ AKJV
This mystery is missed and overlooked by so many in Christendom, mostly because none of us here alive today can fully explain this mystery, known ONLY by God Himself.
But to turn your back on something God is telling us in His Word, should be seen as foolishness to ALL of God’s followers.
If God didn’t want us to know about this word, He would have never mentioned it in His Word.
By it even appearing in His Word, should make each one of us WANT to know as much as we can about this mysterious word.
Keep studying the words that God has given us in His Word.
I love ALL of y’all.
I’ll be back next Wednesday.
