THE GOSPEL FOR ALL
Thursday, October 19, 2023Key Verse
“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:” Acts 10:34
Text — Acts 10:34-38
Message
The full meaning of the gospel is spelt out in John 3:16 thus: “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.”
From the story in Acts 10, Peter learnt a powerful lesson. Jesus is not only the Saviour of the Jews but Saviour of the whole world. God does not have favourites. You can be black, white, red or yellow. You can be from India, China, the United States of America, Russian, Africa or any other country, God’s message is the same for everyone. Believe in Jesus and you will receive eternal life. As you believe, also reach out and preach the gospel to every creature.
Remember, the gospel is for everyone no matter the colour, religion, tribe, race, age or gender. You can spread the gospel message through various means like personal evangelism, sharing of Christian tracts and literature, prayer and your exemplary life. As you go out today, preach the gospel to at least one person. God bless you.
