Bible reference:  Luke 4:1-21 Last week we spoke about hearing the Word.  This week we will talk about preaching, speaking the Word of God. Preaching the gospel that Jesus Christ preached.   Unfortunately,  some of the teachings of Jesus has not always been preached accurately.   The Gospel that Jesus taught has been purposefully perverted.   People will say he preached a gospel of grace or salvation.   Both are correct but not complete. Mark 1:14-15 - the kingdom of God is at hand and to repent.   Without repentance there will be no redemption from Sin.  Jesus's message was bigger than grace and salvation.   His message is about the reign,  rule, dominion of God the Father and of the Son. It is about the filling of the Holy spirit into each one saved.  John 14 - we are not left as orphans.  The Gospel is more than grace or salvation; it's about the whole person. The term 'kingdom of grace ' nor 'Gospel of grace ' appear in Bible.   The Gospel must have

Bible reference:  Romans 10:14-17 God has a saving plan for this world and part of that plan is His people. We need to see God's creation,  instead of the brokenness.   We communicate with you each day.   We grow, planted and watered in the Word.  That we keep a clear passage open to hear Your Word, not the voices of the world. Who are the preachers? All God's people.   Shepherd's look after the sheep.   Sheep breed sheep.   It's not up to one person to preach,  it's up to all God's people. Isaiah 52:7 - reference to Roman's reading. We are to tell people about Jesus Christ,  our Lord and Saviour.   The bringers of good news are precious.   The most persecuted group of people in the world today are Christians.   The biblical sense of  beautiful feet is not a Barbie doll look.  Feet are scarred, worn, tired, that bring the good news.   Bringers of the good news are precious people.   People of whom the world is not worthy.  Paul and Margaret Brand - mi

Bible reference: Habbakuk 2:1-4; Romans 10:1 -21 God has called each of us to be a heralder.  We are to speak out and tell people about Jesus. We need to watch the temptation of being impatient.   People want more things and the salvation through Jesus is not enough for them. God will not disappoint the believing expectation of the one who follows him.  Don't be worried with future or doubts.  Observe what God is doing.   God will not disappoint.   The broken humble sinner to take an interest in their salvation. The walks and the works we do are a faith walk.  Some will walk and some will fall away.   God wants your heart.  Don't fall away.  The heralding of the word has fallen away.  The church is losing because people don't know Jesus.  We can run programs,  feed the poor  and these are good.  Only those full of faith shall know joy. Roman's 10:1-21 Sometimes we can be like Romans 10:21.  The relevance of this text is important to show how you came to be saved.

Bible reference:  Acts 5:25-32 Our eternal salvation and how we know for sure. We tell people about God, but it's Jesus who saves.   It's important that we tell people about Jesus Christ,  he is the One who saves. It's important to ask yourself,  do you know for certain that you would go and be with the Lord. Eternity is very, very permanent.   One day, each of us will know the true answer to this question. Roman's 14:10 We have two appointments made for us:  Hebrews 9:27 - death and judgement. There are two sure things in this physical world:  death and taxes. Tragedy can happen at anytime.   God tells us in James 4:14.  We can make mistakes about a lot of things,  but not salvation.   Proverbs 14:12 - our feelings are not a safe guide; go by God's word and the Holy Spirit tells you. If what you feel,  or hear doesn't line up with the Bible; don't follow it.  Check out what you're hearing against God's Word.   Mark 7:7. Know where stuff com

Bible reference:  John 3:1-17 We have to be born of water and the spirit.   We are born of water - natural birth.  In Jesus,  we are born of the spirit (born again). 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures,  that he was buried,  that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures... We live in the age of information.   In Australia,  people are praying and we are seeing strife.  The first step in bringing the nation back. We can't boil the Gospel down to a few words.   The Gospel message is Good News.  It addresses the problem we all have.  Sin.  We all sin.  God has to address this.   By Christ death on the cross,  he became our substitute.   He took our punishment,  that was rightly ours. We cannot achieve God's forgiveness through good works.  People need salvation and be assured of our place in heaven.   Christian's are assured of this because God says.  Salvation is ordered to mankind.   Mark 1:14-15 Jesus' firs
