The New Testament Model
« on: December 30, 2020, 06:01:21 am »
The New Testament teaches that Christians ought to hear the gospel as much as non-Christians do.  In fact, in the first chapter of Romans the Apostle Paul tells the believers in the church that he was anxious "to preach the gospel to you who are at Rome."  Of course, he was anxious to preach the gospel to the non-Christians at Rome, yet he specifically states that he was eager to preach it to believers as well.

Do you preach the gospel to yourself daily?  I never used to but it was suggested many times throughout my Christian walk.  Then, one day I was listening to a sermon by Paul Washer and he was saying how he speaks with my young "Christians" who grew up in conservative homes and he would ask them, are you a Christian? and they would respond by saying, "I'm trying to be."

That made me afraid for my kids.  I don't want that to be their answer.  I want them to have a crystal clear understanding of the gospel so I began taking them through A Gospel Primer by Milton Vincent and, oh my goodness, I have been so blessed you guys.  My kids have been enjoying it to and, honestly, as of right now, I plan on going through it over and over again until they're old enough to study the Bible on their own.

The first paragraph in this post is the first paragraph from that book (A Gospel Primer) and I was thinking, because I've been so blessed by it, I thought I would share it with you guys as well and maybe you would be blessed, too.

To be honest, I know some have mentioned that they're don't seem to be paying to post right now but I'd like to try anyway and I have 4 more posts to do after this one (I might be close to reaching my limit for a 24 hour period) so I might bust a couple posts out today but after that maybe it would be nice for me to just post one every day.  Even if just 1 person is encouraged I'll be grateful  :heart: I've been told I have the gift of encouragement and it DEFINITELY is something I love to do so  :heart: yeah  :)
