Salvation,It is in the Word!

Acts 13:26 "Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham,and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent".

Paul and Barnabas first preached the gospel to the seed of Abraham, but they contradicted and blasphemed, and therefore,in verse 46, we see that they now were proclaiming the good news to the Gentiles.Let all heed to this warning, let us not refuse the gospel and find it taken away from us.Now is the acceptable day of salvation; when you hear his voice harden not your hearts."To you is the word of this salvation sent".

What is the word of this salvation? It is the testimony that Jesus is the promised Savior.The word which promises forgiveness to all who exhibit repentance of sin,and have faith in the Lord Jesus.In a word it is the proclamation of perfect salvation, through the risen Savior.It is a word, as being spoken by God,and as being his present utterance even at this moment.It is a word which reveals "the word", Jesus the living word of God.It is a word of salvation; for it declares,describes, presents and presses home salvation.It is a word sent, for the Gospel dispensation is a mission of mercy from God,the gospel message,Jesus the Messiah,and the Holy Ghost himself is sent to work salvation among men. Will you decidedly and honestly refuse it?Will you delay your acceptance of this Free gift?Will you play the hypocrite and pretend to receive it,while in your heart you reject it.Will you be a tempoary convert, or will you accept the word of salvation with delight?

Jesus Said, " Preach the gospel to every creature."But you might ask, shall it be offered to those who crucified him,to the soilder who stuck him in his side.Yes Jesus wants the gospel preach to everyone;the man who put the crown of thorns on Christ head, needs to know that their is a crown of life for him if he repents.He who stuck Christ in the side, into his very heart,he needs to know there is a nearer way to the heart of the savior.No matter how bad we might think they are Jesus shed just as much blood for the least of them as he did the greatest of them, and they deserve to hear the word."Christ came to seek and save that which was lost".Proclaim salvation to all, it is the Lord's will.
