The Preaching of the Gospel


This video does not mean to scare everybody. Though it's just a conceptualized presentation, it imparts a message that is full of truth. Believers in Jesus Christ really need to tell their friends, families, and loved-ones about the saving grace of Jesus Christ. I shamefully admit that I myself have many shortcomings for sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ as there are still lots of friends and loved-ones around that I don't even have time to share the gospel with personally (I'm not proud of this but, through this blog, I would like to encourage every Christian including myself to win souls for Christ).

We, believers in Christ, are debtors to non-believers as it is our mandate before God to preach the gospel of Christ to them. As apostle Paul have said:

"Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles. I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise. So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written. The just shall live by faith." - Romans 1:13-17 (KJV)

Our Lord Jesus Christ had given us the mandate through the church to preach the gospel to every creature for the reason that people need to hear the gospel to faithfully believe on Him.

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned." - Mark 16:15-16 (KJV)

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?" - Romans 10:13-14 (KJV)


"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." - Romans 10:17 (KJV)

I believe God had not only given me a career in information technology just to provide for my family. God had given me this career also to use it for the sharing of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This is the reason why I have started writing on this blog. With the knowledge I have in doing this, hopefully, I would be able to reach out more people through the internet.

People need to understand that all sinners shall be judged and are condemned already to face the wrath of God. To some people, this is just a joke, foolishness, and stupidity as they are not considering what shall be revealed unto them at the moment they died.

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up, to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." - Romans 1:18-32 (KJV)

"For the wages of sin is death..." - Romans 6:23 (KJV)

People also need to know that the only hope of sinners before God is our Lord Jesus Christ.

"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8 (KJV)

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." - John 14:6 (KJV)

Alright now, how about you? Is Jesus Christ your saviour now? If not, I would like to share this to you that you would have to believe that Jesus Christ is the one who can really save you from eternal damnation. Many people call Him saviour but they don't accept Him to be their personal Saviour. Will you accept Jesus Christ as your own personal Lord and Saviour? Please don't say, "no". Repent and accept Him as your personal Lord and Saviour today.

"And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house." - Acts 16:31 (KJV)

"...behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation." - 2 Corinthians 6:2 (KJV)
