Acts 8:35
Three important steps that Philip the evangelist took:
I. He opened his mouth.
II. He began at the scripture.
III. He preached Jesus.
My friend, it is Jesus that saves! To my preacher friends, never take for granted the fact that you preach the gospel. I know that this will not be breaking news to anyone, but there are churches that meet week after week and month after month and the folks in the pews are as lambs being led to the slaughter, who never hear the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
I had a friend share with with me that a family member of his went to their church service, and the preacher announced that he couldn't come up with anything to say, so he would be speaking on the subject of acupuncture. That is sad and sorry beyond words. I pray that the gospel message continues to burn like a wild fire in your heart and bones. I have found that a straight up gospel message never, and I mean never, grows old. How could it when Jesus is the heart and soul of the message.
Whether you are a pastor or an evangelist or a sold out soul winner remember that those who attend church every Sunday don't always and sometimes never hear the gospel. We need to bring the gospel! It is time to act.
