FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:
KNOW WHAT THE GOSPEL IS: DON’T GUESS OR SPECULATE
Here’s why: “Jesus said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the GOSPEL to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be SAVED, but he that believeth not shall be DAMNED.” Mark 16: 15,16, KJV.
The true gospel saves, when believed (in its fullest sense); damns if rejected or ignored. But it’s counterfeit brings damnation whether believed or not.
Why? Fallen, mortal man is born almost lost because of inherent sinful propensities and the “visiting of the iniquities of the fathers unto their children to the third and fourth generation; hence, the indispensability of godly parental guidance to establish the first character foundation on the truth.
If the child “increases in stature in the wisdom and knowledge of God” in character development until his death he will receive the gift of eternal life for faithfulness, until he is rescued, delivered, restored and rewarded with the gift of eternal life.
Only the true gospel saves. To accept the counterfeit is damnation and to reject it but not believe the genuine is likewise damnation.
Bless all, NMF
