CHANGING the WORLD

C H A N G I N G  the W O R L D
This is maybe the most important Bible teaching ever, from Pastor Chuck's footnote found in 1 Corinthians 5, page 1488.
The full quote, "It isn't our job to fix the world. It's our job to share the gospel with the world. I don't make rules for how the world should live. I think it is a mistake to endeavor to write Christian legislation. You can't make men holy with laws. They need a change of heart.  We can't fix the world by judging it, but rather by introducing them to the One who can change them from the inside. The changed believer will change the world."

"For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified." 1 Corinthians 2:2.

"Repent, and turn from all your transgressions, so that iniquity will not be your ruin. Cast away from you all the transgressions which you have committed, and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit." Ezekiel 18:30b-31

Jesus is all, loves all and wants none to perish. Thank You for inventing repentance which to me, is a very holy verb, action step and defines "change." Thank You for making us want to change and need new hearts and spirits!  Thanks to You, Jesus for bringing salvation to earth. Please keep us prayer aware, walking in faith and ready to share the good news of Your gospel of salvation.  Amen.
