The most important place to begin in discipleship is the fact of the Sufficiency of the Word of God. If we cannot trust the Bible, then we cannot be resolved to obey its commands. The Word of God is the instruction that the Almighty God has given to us to follow. It is the Word of God that is a “Lamp unto our feet and a Light unto our path” (Psalm 119:105). Understanding what it means to be an "Ambassador for Christ" begins in Isaiah 40. This Scripture gives to us an understanding of the necessity of the herald. In God’s Supreme, Divine and Providential plan, He has chosen to use His people for the declaration of the Gospel. The climax of the introduction in Isaiah 40 takes us into verse 9, which says, “Go on up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good news; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good news; lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah, ‘Behold your God!’” This is a clear command for the people of God to be heralds of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Read More

...We are in a battle for Truth. We must preach the Truth. We must proclaim the Truth. We must declare the Truth. We must stand for Truth. To do this we must be strong and of good courage.

...Salvation is BY God’s Grace. Salvation is FROM God’s Wrath. Salvation is BECAUSE OF God’s Love. Salvation is FOR God’s Glory. “All of this is from God.” It is GOD who chose you from before the foundation of the world. It is GOD who makes you alive in Him. It is GOD who adopts you.
