WHY THE CHURCH EXISTS

Acts 26:15-18 (AMPC)   “ And I said, Who are You, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus, Whom you are persecuting.   16 But arise and stand upon your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, that I might appoint you to serve as [My] minister and to bear witness both to what you have seen of Me and to that in which I will appear to you,   17 Choosing you out [selecting you for Myself] and delivering you from among this [Jewish] people and the Gentiles (non-Christians) to whom I am sending you–[Ezek. 2:1, 3.]   18 To open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of satan to God, so that they may thus receive forgiveness and release from their sins and a place and portion among those who are consecrated and purified by faith in Me.”     Dear people of God, it is necessary to reiterate that God Almighty and Father of my Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ is the owner of every genuine Church al...

NOTHING SHOULD STOP THE GOSPEL MESSAGE FROM BEING PREACHED

NEVER BECOME TIRED OF PREACHING THE GOSPEL

The individual who by the Grace of Almighty God and Father of my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has come to know and experience the saving grace found only in Jesus Christ has a serious obligation to tell others about Jesus Christ. It is not just the duty of the church overseer, pastor, reverend father or reverend alone to share God’s Word with others. See what Jesus says in Mark 16:15-16 (AMPC), “Go into all the world and preach  and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race]. 16 He who believes [who adheres to and trusts in and relies on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] and is baptized will be saved [from the penalty of eternal death]; but he who does not believe [who does not adhere to and trust in and rely on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] will be condemned.” If this command was only for the Apostles of Jesus Christ, then the Gospel would have ended with them but it was a command to every generation...
