So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
John 8:31-32, ESV
How can others know the truth if we do not tell them?
Let us show the world the Word and Truth of God that they may be freed from sin.
“For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”
Matthew 18:20, ESV
Jesus was talking about church discipline. If the outside world sees evil happening in the Church, they are driven away from Jesus. If they see sin dealt with, they see Jesus’ hatred of sin and grace.
Let us hold each other accountable in Christ.
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1, ESV
We do not “merely believe” something. We show others that we do not follow a blind faith. We have an assurance of our hope as revealed in the Gospel and a peace given through the Word and the Holy Spirit.
And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.
Isaiah 60:3, ESV
As the saying goes, we make better doors than windows. Therefore, are we open to revealing God’s light to the world or blocking their way? Let us be open to revealing God’s light through our lives.
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit
Matthew 28:19, ESV
We should not be hiding away from the world or pushing others way from God. Rather, in the authority of Jesus, we should be going into the world and doing everything in our power and beyond to help this world understand God’s Word and lead them to righteousness.

It’s early Sunday morning, like only 7 minutes in at the time of this writing. So what am I doing up so late?
Well, I’m an emotional wreck, for one thing. I’ll give you one guess why, and it has nothing to do with the price of Disney World season passes.
Regardless, I’ve got to live life and bring a little joy into people’s lives where I can. And where it’s possible, tell them about Jesus.
And one way that God has given me an open door to talk about His majesty and grace is through the gift and talent of art. That’s why I’m trying to waste no time taking my painting seriously.
I would love for you to check out my online store by clicking on the link below. There you will be able to order prints, even the original paintings, if you’d like.

“Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.” (Romans 14:13)
Let us help others receive the Word. Obviously it is better to meet in person, but we have always had those who were/are unable to attend in person.

And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
Hebrews 11:6, ESV
We either push God away or draw near to Him.
How do we draw near? By faith in Him, through reading the Bible, and through fellowship with other believers.
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
1 John 4:15, ESV
If we are saved,, we must each believe that the Jesus revealed in Scripture is the Son of God – fully God and fully human – who came and showed His love by dying for our sin. Then, we tell others by the power of God in us – the Holy Spirit.
For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
Habakkuk 2:14, ESV
It is our job as Christians to spread the Gospel to the whole world, yet a day is coming when Christ shall return and the whole earth will be filled with His glory. No one who doubts will remain, and we will have eternity with Him.
