The Name Jesus

Acts 4:12 "neither is there salvation in any other:For there is none other name under heaven given among men,whereby we must be saved."

At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess.There is no life outside of Jesus.Only what you do for Christ will last.In this day of the great church evolution many have gotten caught up in the size of the preachers name;the size of the worship center; and the size of the financial blessing,which has caused many to be lost when it comes to slavation.But Jesus and Jesus alone is the power of God unto salvation.

We have gotten off point with our religious message of today.We have to many preaching that we might get things instead of preaching that we might be saved.When Peter and the other Apostles preach, they preached Christ and Him crucified.They pointed out the sin and lost state of man in relationship to God and his need to repent,be baptised, and be saved.The message today seems to be one of acceptance.We don't want to judge anybody,we are afraid to run people out of the church,we want to fill the seats and the collection plates.So we let people be decieved into believing that God loves them to much to send them to hell.But just like in the day of Noah,all who was not in the ark of safety when the floods came died.When Jesus returns,all who are not in the ark of safety will perish.This calling of ours is one of saving souls.It is not about making friends,or getting people to join church,it is about leading people to give their life to Christ.Jesus is the only way by which man  can be saved.

This is God's salvation, these are His people,His souls that He died for, and they can only be saved by sharing His message. Jesus Christ, God's only revelation to mankind.The revelation to which we are to bear witness of to a lost world through our testimony.That the lost might come to know the name Jesus, the power of God unto salvation.
