1 Timothy 2
Simple Faith and Plain Truth
From the Message Translation
4 -7He wants not only us but everyone saved, you know, everyone to get to know the truth we’ve learned: that there’s one God and only one, and one Priest-Mediator between God and us—Jesus, who offered himself in exchange for everyone held captive by sin, to set them all free. Eventually the news is going to get out. This and this only has been my appointed work: getting this news to those who have never heard of God, and explaining how it works by simple faith and plain truth
I love using www.bible.com it is a great resource and saves a lot of typing when blogging.:)
I came across this scripture when I was writing a word of encouragement in a bible I was giving away. I remembered the girl that I was talking to the day before( see the unworthy post) and the story she shared with me of the people talking to her for an hour and then saying she was saved.
You know we should be able to tell someone about the gospel in just a few minutes. I mean of course you want to learn something about them and their situation. When I came across this scripture in the MESSAGE BIBLE..I went wow by simple faith and plain truth…mmmmm Could God have laid it out for us to say SIMPLE FAITH and PLAIN TRUTH is how to do it.
Why when people go to present the gospel they make it so long and drawn out. If we take for ever to present the gospel to someone they might and could lose int rest. So when presenting the gospel do what Timothy said tell them about SIMPLE FAITH and PLAIN TRUTH.
Found out to day I do need surgery so pray for me and the slicer guy…I mean surgeon…lol
