Bible reference: Romans 2 Some people don't have a formal education,  yet they can learn. Some people receive an education.  Education or no education; we can't escape God's judgment.   We all need God's mercy,  regardless of our education.   God does not show favoritism.   The person who is educated,  can learn from nature as well.  He knows that there is a God with intelligence.   Many educated people try to reason out life.  They are challenged by answered prayer.  Sometimes you can't reason with intellectual reasoning.   The intellectual person knows there is a judgment,  he also knows God is merciful and compassionate.  He will try and find a way of escape. We must have God who is just.  If not, then there will be no repentance or paying the price to make the unjust act right.  The price had to be paid.  We are not to walk in another's pain.   We are to be compassionate but not take the hurt or pain on.  God calls us to love one another and care for o

Bible reference:  Acts 20:24 Paul's commission in life.   The task of testifying to the Gospel of grace. We are to lead people to where they can meet God; we can't change them.  We lead them, and the Holy Spirit dies the work. Romans1:13-32b In our country,  this explains much of what is happening in our nation.  The failure of our nation will not be without, but from within. Simple man - ordinary man.  Uneducated man.  From nature, he can see there is a supreme intelligence.   Today,  we are taught that there was a large explosion that caused our world into existence???! Yet man will reject the truth that God created the world and dream up something entirely different. When you give your heart to God, he no longer sees you as a sinner.   You may sin, but under God's grace,  we are saved.  Not by any of our good works,  but by His grace. Reference:  Romans 3:23 The sinfulness of man - not acknowledging the supreme intelligence of God; there is a surprise ability t

Bible Reference:  Acts 20:24 "But nothing, not even my life, is more important than my completing my mission. This is nothing other than the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus: to testify about the good news of God’s grace."  Acts of the Apostles 20:24 CEB /https://bible.com/bible/37/act.20.24.CEB Completing the mission the Lord has for us to do.  We will know who we are; your people. Romans 16:25-27 Jesus Christ came from the line of David but he was also the divine Son of God.   God also raised him from the dead. A disciple - a disciplined way of life.  We are loved by God and members of His body. God has called you and set you aside from this world.   We are holy saints; people of God; we are Christians. Only God through what the Jesus Christ has accomplished through his death and resurrection, salvation and eternal life. The Roman church suffered great persecution.   They were loved by God and called to be his saints.   As we go about our life as a Christian,

Hebrews 20:21. Read full story of Moses. Being Sent To Preach You are created to go and all to be saved and all to know the Truth.   Jesus came to earth for all. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Jesus comes and meets with you and speaks with you personally.  He reveals himself personally to each of us. He reveals who he is to us.  You move from being a creation of God to being a child of God.   God is God and will reveal himself.   He reveals what we are able to do and what we will do.  The journey ahead is like a moulding.  God doesn't just want you saved by grace but he wants to mold you.  Ephesians 2:10 God calls you to be a priest. A Priest is like a bridge builder. We're to help build the road across the gulf to show people Jesus. Jesus teaches us to be fishers of men.  The disciples entered into a molding process.   They left all behind and followed Jesus.   You cannot walk with Jesus Christ without leaving everything. In the molding process,

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
