Tell All and Some Will Come

Michael D. Rourke The Glory of His Name 0 0

We are not born as perfect people. Passed on by Adam and Eve, people all over the world are born with a sin nature in their heart. We love our sins. Sin is anything we do that offends a perfect God, in thoughts, words or deeds. Saying “No” to a parent comes out naturally.

Consequently every child begins a life as a sinner and like all sinners they are headed for hell. Because of the sin nature we have a lifelong bent on sinning more or less, but still offending a perfect God. Matthew 5:48 “Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.”

The Bible tells us in John 3:18 “he who does not believe is condemned already.” Babies are not born believing in God, Jesus Christ, the Savior from the penalty of their sins. Turning away from Jesus Christ at any age and not believing in Him as Savior, is a sin of omission.

The huge universal problem of sin has a remedy and it’s the same remedy for each person. We read in John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

God loves humankind so much that He sent His Son to die a horrible death on the cross. By His grace He sent a Savior so people would be saved from the wrath of God sending sinners to hell.  The Bible teaches us in John 3:19 “and this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light,”

The problem of going to hell or not going is a matter of personal responsibility. Even on our best day, on our best behavior, with all of our good deeds, they are not good enough. God is perfect, His heaven is perfect and through believing in the perfection of Christ’s death and resurrection we can please God.

Hearing the word of truth, believing in your heart that Jesus is the only Savior, who died on the cross paying for the penalties of your sins, you shall be saved. People must be willing to believe and God will change their doubting hearts into believing hearts. Begin by asking Jesus into your heart.

A changed life of obedience will be the initial evidence of a changed heart. God grace will lessen the power of sin and He will increase a person’s love for Jesus and desire to follow Him closely. It is the command of God (Matthew 28:19-20) that we tell all and some will come.
