How to Share Jesus or the Gospel with the Lost

B - Beginning - Colossians 1:16 - "... all things were created by Him [Jesus Christ], and for Him."

Christ Jesus, God the Son has given all humanity their Beginning and existence for His own enjoyment and glory.

A - Away - Romans 3:23 - "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Humanity was created for God's glory, but all humans have sinned, and made God angry. Our sin has taken us Away from God. Mankind therefore is born into a wrong relationship with God. God's wrath will be poured out on sinners if they are left to themselves.

S - Son - John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Though God has declared war against sinful man, He sent His Son to die in the place of sinful man, so that those who trust in Christ alone will be saved from God's wrath. Because Christ has been punished for our sins, those who trust in Him are credited with His good works. Paul, in 1 Corinthians 15:3, 4 wrote, "... Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures." Christ proved that He is the only Way of Salvation given by God the Father by living a sinless life, dying, and physically rising from the dead.

E - End - Mark 1:15 - "... repent ye, and believe the Gospel." In order to be saved, fallen men must End being the lord of their own lives. We must turn from our sins and turn from trusting in our own good works, turn from trusting in other purported gospels, and we must place our faith in Christ's finished work alone.

Will you turn from your sins, receiving God's Grace Alone by Faith Alone in Christ Alone today? Turn and be saved today! If you turn today, remember that you will also turn tomorrow, and the next day, and the next, etc. As you trust in Christ alone, seek to live out the Christian life perfectly while continually trusting and admitting that you need the blood of Christ. Find a local body of believers, fellow Christians who believe the Bible, to fellowship with, to learn from, and to be held accountable by. Ask them about the importance of baptism and living a holy life. Continue on for God's glory alone!
