I was thinking about using this as a one page handout to people in my community that may not be that well versed in God, Christianity, and The Bible and such, people on the street that may want or need it, tell me what you think...?
The Gospel Message:
1 Corinthians 15:1-4- "Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that 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"...
John 3:16- “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life"...
Acts of the Apostles 16:31- "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved"...
Having Faith in the Gospel Message:
Righteousness/Salvation comes by Faith (Hebrews 11:7) and Faith alone, and not works (Ephesians 2:8-9) and Faith comes by hearing, and by hearing and reading and taking in the Word of God, the Bible (Romans 10:17), for without Faith it is impossible to please Him. (Hebrews 11:6)...
The Judgment:
John 3:19- "And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil"...
The Commandment:
1 John 3:11- "For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another."
1 John 3:18- "My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth."
1 John 4:7-8- "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love."
1 John 4:16- "And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him."
1 John 4:18- "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love."
Giving and Receiving:
2 Corinthians 9:7- "So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver."
2 Corinthians 9:6- "But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully."
Comfort in Tribulation:
2 Corinthians 1:3-4- "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God."
The Holy Spirit is the great Comforter, with us in and through our trials and tribulations... He lives inside of you... He is the voice that is kind to you, and speaks kind and kindly to you, in all your troubles and trials and tribulations... In Him you will find refreshment for your soul...
Peace is a Weapon:
Romans 16:20- "And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen."
Finally Bretheren:
Philippians 2:1-4- "Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others."
2 Corinthians 13:11- "Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you."
God Bless!
