THE GOSPEL – THE POWER OF GOD, FOR YOUR SALVATION: PREACH IT – TEACH IT – MINISTER IT AND LIVE IT – FOR THEREIN IT’S YOUR SALVATION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS!
“For I am not ASHAMED of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to EVERYONE that BELIEVETH; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall LIVE by faith” Romans 1:16-17.
The GOSPEL is the ANSWER to every single quest in your life, and in all human history, for today, tomorrow, as it was yesterday – Hebrews 13:8. Unfortunately, many have been blinded and blindsided away from the GOSPEL so they can be controlled and be made to pursue alternatives – through creeds, religion, bylaws, cultural and traditional dogmas, denominational entanglements, and such like. As a result, many remain in perpetual subjection and bondage till this day. Yet the reality of the GOSPEL that ANSWERS every human quest for SALVATION, and that REVEALS the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God, still speaks in our midst today for all to experience and to have complete and wholesome liberation in God through Christ Jesus stead. Amen. Romans 1:16-17.
It’s only by the GOSPEL that the enabling POWER of God for human SALVATION and to take a stand in God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS is made readily available in His grace and BLESSEDNESS – Romans 5:1-2. And it’s by the GOSPEL that we obtain the right to attain the revelation of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS to one and all. And SALVATION is synonymous with REDEMPTION, only that in the NEW CREATION context, it’s not exclusive to just being born of God – it entails the following, but not limited to – HEALTH, PEACE, SECURITY, PROSPERITY, DELIVERANCE and such like, and more.
The GOSPEL ought to be PREACHED, TAUGHT, ADMINISTERED, and LIVED for the SALVATION of people, so that the constituents of SALVATION become ALIVE, TANGIBLE, REACHABLE, LIVEABLE AND LOVABLE. Unfortunately today, what one sees now and again in these last days – if you look around you closely or even far off – is that people are being staged and managed in deception, counterfeits, adulteration, delusions, and such like, with the idea of pursuing the constituents of SALVATION without the GOSPEL. Instead, they should be PREACHED, TAUGHT, and MINISTERED to with the GOSPEL, which is the POWER of God to bring about the constituents we need to stand in RIGHTEOUSNESS on the realms and lanes of victory and triumph in Christ Jesus stead, as written:
“I urge you, brothers and sisters, to keep your eyes on those who cause DISSENSIONS and CREATE OBSTACLES or INTRODUCE temptations [for others] to commit sin, [acting in ways] CONTRARY to the DOCTRINE which you have LEARNED. Turn away from them. 18 For such people do not SERVE our Lord Christ, but their own APPETITES and BASE DESIRES. By smooth and FLATTERING speech they DECEIVE the hearts of the unsuspecting [the INNOCENT and the NAIVE]” Romans 16:17-18 Amplified.
Know full well this day that the GOSPEL is the POWER of God unto human salvation and the REVEALER of God’s RIGHTEOUSNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And Jesus Christ is that POWER of God unto human SALVATION. And it’s only when we PREACH, TEACH and MINISTER Jesus Christ to ourselves and others, that SALVATION comes alive to meet the needs of humanity and answer their cravings and quests: PEACE, PROSPERITY, DELIVERANCE, SECURITY and such like, and more. Romans 1:16-17; 1 Corinthians 1:24. Acts 8:4-8.
The GOSPEL is about the WORD of God. And Jesus Christ is the WORD of God. 1 John 5:7. And it’s as we PREACH, TEACH, and MINISTER the WORD as Philip the evangelist did in the Bible days of the Apostles as in – Acts 8:4-8 – that genuine, indescribable joy comes alive in an individual and in all. It also silences and puts an end to all form of the falsehood, deception, counterfeit, perverseness, and adulteration that once overwhelmed people with bondages, torments, and controls, as with that certain man Simon who used sorcery and bewitching tactics to enslave people as in – Acts 8:9-26.
It’s within the same scenario and similarity that Philip the evangelist PREACHED, TAUGHT, and MINISTERED the gospel, that Apostle Paul could stand to admonish and exhort the Corinthians to awaken them back to their original foundation and stand in the faith in their salvation – which came to them as a consequence of the GOSPEL he PREACHED TAUGHT and MINISTERED to them. He reminded them through the process that brought them to SALVATION by the gospel, laying it out in such didactic order for them to know, by laying the steps of the Gospel on which he stands, and on which he PREACHED, TAUGHT, and MINISTERED to them, before they get carried away as some had already then, and even as some do in today’s world. 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.
Therefore I say to you, that in this MONTH OF JUNE, for your onward and upward trajectory in Christ Jesus, it’s time to stop pursuing the chaff in order to obtain PROSPERITY, DELIVERANCE, PEACE, SECURITY, SAFETY, HEALTH and such like, and more, outside the GOSPEL that brings about these constituents of SALVATION. For all these in pursuit are the results of SALVATION, which is the consequence of the PREACHING, TEACHING and MINISTERING of the Gospel of Christ Jesus for you to LIVE upon. And any other process is sorcery and bewitching – leading to spells, control, self-hype, contention, and evil in all manner of mannerism and behaviour. Philippians 1:15-18.
“Some indeed PREACH Christ even of ENVY and STRIFE; and some also of GOOD WILL: 16 the one PREACH Christ of CONTENTION, NOT SINCERELY, supposing to ADD affliction to my bonds: 17 but the OTHER of LOVE, knowing that I am set for the DEFENCE of the GOSPEL. 18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in PRETENCE, or in TRUTH, Christ is PREACHED; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice”
Therefore, you need to stop running around chasing chaff and looking for a DELIVERANCE MINISTER who will DELIVER you through their so-called special ministry of “DELIVERANCE, PROPHETIC, PROSPERITY and PRAYER HOUSE SERVICES,” and such like. All these they do to exploit your vulnerability, ignorance, and the stupidity and foolishness that comes from not knowing and understanding that your access to such things is in GOSPEL – as the means to the end – in order to hold you captive. That will result in you buying their specially ‘anointed’ BOTTLE OF OIL, HANDKERCHIEF, HOLY WATER, SPECIAL BATHING SOAP AND CREAM, JERUSALEM SPRING, FEET OF JESUS SAND, SALT OF GALILEE, BLESSED STICKERS and RED CARDS, and many such like despicable physical items they depict as means of God. These above mentioned, and others, are their craft and cunning tactics to extort money and material things from you through their own made-up ‘God-will’ to bless you or answer your needs and desires – which contradicts the GOSPEL that brings about wholesome SALVATION to you.
“Giving thanks to the Father, who has QUALIFIED us to share in the inheritance of the saints (God’s people) in the Light. 13 For He has RESCUED (DELIVERED) us and has DRAWN (RECONCILED) us to Himself from the DOMINION of darkness, and has TRANSFERRED (TRANSLATED) us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have REDEMPTION (SALVATION) [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the FORGIVENESS of our sins [and the CANCELLATION of sins’ penalty]” Colossians 1:12-14 Amplified.
Know this day that it’s only the GOSPEL – which is by the PREACHING, TEACHING and MINISTERING of Christ Jesus, who is the WORD of God of the GOSPEL, Who IS the POWER of God – to bring about the fulness and wholesome SALVATION to you and all humanity alike, irrespective.
AND I SAY AGAIN THAT THE GOSPEL – IS THE POWER OF GOD, FOR YOUR SALVATION. PREACH IT – TEACH IT – MINISTER IT AND LIVE IT – FOR THEREIN IS YOUR SALVATION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS!
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK ABOUT IT!
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL of Christ: for it is THE POWER of God unto SALVATION to everyone that believeth; to THE JEW first, and also to THE GREEK. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith” Romans 1:16-17.
“For THE PREACHING of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is THE POWER of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy THE WISDOM of the wise and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish THE WISDOM of this world? 21 For after that in THE WISDOM of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of PREACHING to save them that believe. 22 For THE JEWS require a sign, and THE GREEKS seek after wisdom: 23 but we PREACH Christ crucified, unto the JEWS a stumblingblock, and unto the GREEKS foolishness; 24 but unto them which are called, both JEWS and GREEKS, Christ THE POWER of God, and THE WISDOM of God” 1 Corinthians 1:18-24.
“Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where PREACHING THE WORD. 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and PREACHED Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, HEARING and seeing the miracles which he did. 7. For unclean spirits, crying with loud voices, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were HEALED. 8 And there was GREAT JOY in that city” Acts 8:4-8.
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you THE GOSPEL which I PREACHED unto you, which also ye have RECEIVED, and wherein ye STAND; 2 by which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I PREACHED unto you, unless ye have BELIEVED in vain. 3 For I DELIVERED unto you first of all that which I also RECEIVED, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE again the third day according to the scriptures: 5 and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: 6 after that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. 8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. 9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 11 Therefore whether it were I or they, so we PREACH, and so ye BELIEVED” 1 Corinthians 15:1-11.
“And Jesus went about all the CITIES and VILLAGES, TEACHING in their synagogues, and PREACHING the gospel of the kingdom, and HEALING every sickness and every disease among the people” Matthew 9:35.
“And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. 17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, 18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to PREACH THE GOSPEL to the poor; he hath sent me to HEAL the brokenhearted, to PREACH deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19 to PREACH the acceptable year of the Lord. 20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this SCRIPTURE fulfilled in your ears. 22 And all bare him WITNESS, and wondered at the GRACIOUS WORDS which proceeded out of his MOUTH. And they said, Is not this Joseph’s son?” Luke 4:16-22.
“Even as Abraham believed God, and it was ACCOUNTED to him for righteousness. 7. Know ye therefore that they which ARE of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would JUSTIFY the heathen through faith, PREACHED before THE GOSPEL unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. 9 So then they which be of faith ARE blessed with faithful Abraham” Galatians 3:6-9.
SUMMARY:
the message is about the Gospel of Christ Jesus as the only power of God for complete salvation and righteousness, with a strong warning to stop chasing counterfeits and substitutes outside of it.
KEY POINTS
- THE GOSPEL IS THE POWER OF GOD FOR SALVATION
the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation for everyone who believes. Jesus Christ is that power and the Word of God. in the Gospel, the righteousness of God is revealed. it is the answer to every human need — yesterday, today and forever. Romans 1:16-17; Hebrews 13:8. - SALVATION IN NEW CREATION IS TOTAL
Salvation is redemption. It includes health, peace, security, prosperity, deliverance, and more. These are results of salvation, not separate pursuits. they become real only through preaching, teaching and living the Gospel. Colossians 1:12-14. - THE CRISIS: BLINDNESS AND SUBSTITUTES
Many have been blinded from the Gospel and now chase religion, creeds, culture and denominational rules. This leads to bondage. people pursue the benefits of salvation without the Gospel. Romans 16:17-18. - REJECT COUNTERFEITS — JUNE CHARGE
Stop seeking “deliverance ministers” and special ministries. stop buying “anointed” oil, handkerchiefs, holy water, stickers, red cards and similar items. These exploit and control you. They contradict the Gospel that brings true salvation. Philippians 1:15-18. - BIBLICAL PATTERN: PREACH THE WORD
Philip preached Christ in Samaria and people were delivered and healed. Simon, the sorcerer’s control, ended. Paul laid the Gospel foundation for Corinthians. Jesus preached the Gospel and healed the sick. as Christ is preached, salvation meets every need. Acts 8:4-26; 1 Corinthians 15:1-11; Luke 4:18-19. - THE GOSPEL REVEALS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND LIBERATES
The Gospel is Jesus Christ, not things. by the Gospel we receive God’s righteousness. It silences deception and bondage. The Gospel still speaks today for complete liberation in God through Christ Jesus.
CALL TO ACTION
FROM THIS MONTH OF JUNE, stop pursuing substitutes outside the Gospel. only the Gospel, through Christ Jesus who is the Word and power of God, brings full salvation. the Gospel is the power of God for your salvation. preach it, teach it, minister it and live it.
