Call on the name of the Lord

Brothers and Sisters, let it be our heart’s desire and our prayer to God for the sinners of this world that they may become saved. As we continue spreading the precious gospel of the water and the Spirit we can see that many have a deep longing for God, but they are lacking in the knowledge that is required to find Him. The problem is, they are ignorant of God’s righteousness, they are seeking their own righteousness, they have neither found nor submitted to the righteousness of God. Through their lack of knowledge they know not that our Lord is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.

 

Moses wrote about the righteousness which is of the law, The man who does these things shall live by them. But the righteousness of faith speaks differently. Do not say in your heart, who will ascend into heaven (forbid that we should try and bring Christ down again from above) nor let us say who will descend into the abyss (forbid that we should try and raise Christ again from the dead). But what does the law say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart (that is the word of faith which we preach). If you confess with your mouth that our Lord Jesus took upon himself the sin of the world through His baptism from John, have faith and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame. Brothers & Sisters, it is we who are not ashamed to say that we belong to the true Church of God.

 

God makes no distinction between the Jew or the Greek, the rich or the poor. Our Lord is the same rich Lord to all who call upon Him. For whoever calls on 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? And how shall they preach unless they are sent. As it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things.

 

Blessed Saints! God made no distinction when He choose us to be that preacher. God Himself opened our hearts so that we could hear, receive and have faith in the gospel of glad tidings of good tidings, the only true gospel which brings peace for the heart and the soul, the gospel of the water and the Spirit. And to those whom God has prepared to receive eternal salvation, the sound of our footsteps are beautiful indeed.

 

God is the same today as he was yesterday, He is not looking for Churches full of Christians, God is looking for disciples who will  go out and fulfill His command.

 

Matthew 28:19-20.   Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Teaching them to observe all things I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.

 

For some, the sound of our footsteps will be a welcome sound, but for others the sound of our footsteps will only be rejected and shunned. But be of great cheer, we have done our duty faithfully, and will continue to do so until the day our Lord returns for his chosen Saints. This is our calling!

 

For those who are willing to listen to those who’s footsteps bring these glad tidings of the gospel of the water and the Spirit, we invite you to freely order these wonderful books written by Paul C. Jong. His teachings will indeed lead you to observe all things which God has in store for you.

 

God has blessed us all with this life giving gospel of the water and the Spirit, what a beautiful sound for our ears.
