Unashamed Gospel (Instagram)

Jesus is the hope and answer for you today! ...whatever it is, He loves you and cares about you!! I can offer you the most incredible gift from a jewelry store but it's up to you to accept it ...likewise, God has offered His son Jesus who cares about you so much that He died for every mistake, failure, sickness, and sin ..to give you an opportunity to live an incredible life of fullness of joy, peace, and purpose ...you no longer have to figure life out ..will you receive Him as Lord today??

Truth is, people are hurting and want answers. Even when they seem to have life figure out, money is right, etc. ...something is still missing. We can't be afraid nor ashamed to share Jesus in His purity, truth unaltered. Ambassadors of the United States represent the government of the USA. When asked their opinions, their response? "My government says..." As ambassadors of Christ, when asked opinions about basic Biblical principles, core issues of life, etc. our response? "The Bible says.." Tapping around just to appease the listener, to seem "normal" or cool, and not to offend someone is fear driven and people pleasing. Being preachy, too churchy, or deep shouldn't be our concern. Jesus ins the (only) way, truth, and LIFE and if we love someone, we'll give them the gift of life. Jesus changed my life and my testimony will never be altered to fit my surrounding. I'm not ashamed of the Gospel because I understand the power it has to bring salvation.

"People shouldn't look at me, they should look at Jesus" is a cop out! When they see you, they should see Jesus operation through you. My past nor my shortcoming don't disqualify me from the Gospel. God's grace qualifies every believer to speak His love in power and authority. Jesus' disciples shared the uncompromising Gospel even when their lives were on the line. The same is taking place oversees today! Yet we have the opportunity to share Jesus in complete freedom and we downplay Him? make Him an undertone because we ant to appeal to the masses? Jesus is still Lord and deserves to be the center of attention ...#unashamed #unaltered #unmoved #notcountingfollowers #makingdisciples


Pursuing Truth, D.
