The Eager-to-Preach Gospel!

Hope Presbyterian Church in Winston-Salem Sermons

Series: The Gospel of GodScripture: Romans 1:8-15 “I never wanted to follow Jesus. I never wanted to follow Jesus. I never wanted to follow Jesus. He rescued me, He rescued me. No turning back, no turning back.” – Red Mountain Music “There’s a direct correlation between the accuracy of our memory and the effectiveness of our mission. If we’re not teaching people how to be saved, it’s perhaps because we’ve forgotten the tragedy of being lost. If we’re not teaching the message of forgiveness, it may be because we don’t remember what it was like to be guilty. And if we’re not preaching the cross, it could be that we’ve subconsciously decided that—God forbid—somehow we don’t need it.” – Max Lucado “It is very common in Christian circles to assume that “the gospel” is something just for non-Christians. We presume that the gospel is a set of basic “A-B-C” doctrines that Christians do not need to hear or study once they are converted . . . Belief in the gospel is not just the way to enter the kingdom of God; it is the way to address every obstacle and grow in every aspect. The gospel is not just the “ABCs” but the “A-to-Z” of the Christian life. The gospel is the way that anything is renewed and transformed by Christ — whether a heart, a relationship, a church, or a community. All our problems come from a lack of orientation to the gospel. Put positively, the gospel transforms our hearts, our thinking and our approach to absolutely everything.” – Tim KellerThe post The Eager-to-Preach Gospel! first appeared on Hope Church PCA.
