Think about it:
If Jesus had kept His
mouth shut about His love for the heavenly Father and His love for Gods Human
creation.
What If He had not
preached the love of God and had compassion for the lost and dying of His
generation.
If He had denied obedience
to the voice and will of God for His life
He would have probably
lived beyond His 33 1/3 years and not have been wrongfully crucified for our
sins.
If He had obeyed the
voice of Satan He would have by Satan been given temporary power over a worldly
kingdom doomed to destruction and a devils hell.
He being Gods second
Adam would have failed Gods purpose as did the first Adam and we humans would
have no hope of salvation only looking forward to God’s wrath, judgment and eternal
damnation.
By a matter of His
choice he chose to turn away from Satan’s temptations and lies and carry His
cross for us and die on our cross for our sins.
Because Jesus was
faithful to Gods voice because He was faithful to Gods purpose and will because
He took willingly the hatred, persecution, torture and the horrendous killing
of His human body He was mocked for His testimony of faith in the fact that He
was the Son of Almighty God.
Jesus proved His
right to the title King of Kings and Lord of Lords He proved Himself Lord God Almighty
the creator of the heavens, earth and all that was, is or ever will be.
And by His faithfulness
we all have opportunity through Him to be saved have a blessed life and hope of
eternal life in His heavenly kingdom.
Now it is Gods
purpose and will that we the believers in Jesus we who are part of the
church of the Lord Jesus Christ on earth
not keep our mouths shut but lift Him
up to this present evil wicked world of
humans because of our love for Him and our love for His human creation.
We are ambassadors
for Jesus and the eternal kingdom of God if we fail the whole of our generation
will be lost and damned for the price of sin.
We know that we will
be hated we know that we will be persecuted for our obedience to God just as
Jesus was in His day.
1
Corinthians 1:18 (KJV)
For the preaching of
the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is
the power of God.
We know also that some will believe and be saved, some will
be almost persuaded to be saved and others will be lost to damnation because of
their UN belief.
Romans
10:14 (NASB)
How then will they
call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom
they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?
We know as well that to keep silent about such a great love
that God has for His creation if we were to let our lips refrain from speaking
about so great a salvation that God offered to the world through His only
begotten son we would be a failure to the will and purpose of God for our
lives.
Yes we could choose to be silent we could fear to speak we
could avoid the hatred and persecution that sometimes we receive from those who
hate the very name of Jesus.
But then we choose rather to follow the answer that the
apostles gave in their day.
Acts
5:29 (KJV)
Then Peter and the
other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.
Love us or hate us, hear us or turn a deaf ear to our
message,join us or separate your selves from us, believe or don’t believe, live
or die that is your choice.
But it is our choice to obey God rather than men!
2 Corinthians 5:20 K J V
Now then we are ambassadors
for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in
Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.
