7.6: Pretending to be the Good News When it's Not

I have a love-hate relationship with social  media. I need to use it for my business and to help spread the Gospel of  Jesus Christ, however, it’s full of FAKE NEWS! Moreover, it’s really  hard to distinguish what’s true and what’s fake! You have to go to  resources like Snopes or Just Facts to verify if it’s true or not. Likewise it is with the Good News of Jesus Christ or the Gospel. How do you know that the church you’re attending is preaching the true Gospel? You read the Bible! You  have 27 books in the New Testament that reveal, preach, explain and  prophesy the Good News of the true salvation of Jesus Christ. [Related: Who Wrote the Gospels?]  The problem is, some churches don’t encourage you to read the Bible for  yourself. At least the Roman Catholic Church I grew up in didn’t. My  parents didn’t either. They didn’t know better. They, too, were raised  Catholic. The Apostle Paul’s Letter to the Galatians Scholars say that that letter to the “churches of Galatia” may have  been the first epistle that Paul wrote. Probably because he explains in  the first chapter where he got his knowledge of the Gospel of Christ.  Why is he an authority? He’s the “Johnny-come-lately” of the apostles.  He encountered Jesus after the resurrection. He was one of the Pharisees  who’s stood by and watched Stephen get stoned to death (Acts 7). So what was the fake gospel that the Galatians were following? Here’s the first chapter. Pay close attention…. Keep reading in my blog.... If you truly want to be born again and have the assurance of salvation and a 1-way, non-stop ticket to Heaven and that you won’t be left behind at the Rapture, this is what you have to do… Believe. Repent. Be Baptized. Receive the Holy Spirit.  Pray this prayer humbly and wholeheartedly… “Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins. Please forgive me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and my life to you. I confess You as my personal Lord and Savior. I will follow you for the rest of my life. Thank You, Jesus, for saving me. In Jesus' name, Amen.” Jesus Christ is coming back soon! Are you ready? Soli Deo Gloria — To God Alone Be the Glory! Subscribe and share!
