The One Calling Of A Christian:
Here at Bible Senders, we know from experience that sharing the Kingdom Message, one person at a time can make a difference that can change the entire world. Everyone, Believer or not, knows that Jesus certainly made a difference. So did Paul and all of the apostles as well as George Washington Carver, Isaac Newton, Billy Graham, Bob Dylan to name a few, the list goes on and on. These are just some of the Christians that became famous, however the world is full of people who did not gain notoriety and still went on to change the history of the planet.
As a Born-Again Believer, You, are called to be one of those people and share The Kingdom Message (see John 3 if you have questions). As our calling was noted so simply by John Wesley, "You have one business on earth - to save souls". Your one bible can make that difference in someone's life thousands of miles away (Mark 16:15, Matthew 28:19).
So, Who Are We as Christians?
When God created man in His image, they were made as sons of God. As sons (yes it includes daughters), He gave Adam and Eve dominion over all the earth to subdue it (Genesis 1:28). Once you become a born-again believer, you become a son of God (1 John 3:2, Romans 8:14,16, 2 Corinthians 6:18).
As sons, He gave ALL believers the same power and responsibility to take dominion over the fish of the sea and birds of the air and over every living thing that moves on the earth. For whatever we bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and anything we release on earth will be released in heaven (Matthew 16:19, Matthew 18:18-19).
In essence as sons and overseers, we have been given the privilege and responsibility of representing and taking care of God's Kingdom on Earth. It is imperative that we step up and meet that responsibility.
An Ambassador of The Kingdom:
Paul says that we are Ambassadors of Christ (see Ephesians 6, 2 Corinthians 5:20). So, what does that mean exactly? An ambassador is a very disciplined minister of the highest rank sent to a foreign country to represent their own country. As an Ambassador your duty is to know what position your government takes on all matters of state and support it. Your personal opinion on those issues are of no importance. If you are a true representative of your country, the only position you can take is that of your country.
The Lord's Prayer and The Kingdom Message:
"Our Father who is in Heaven, holy is Your Name. Your Kingdom come, Your will be done..." It does not matter if in this life or if in your church, you are in a position of leadership or not, as Believers, ALL of us are called to be an Ambassador of Christ and live The Kingdom Message by not just words but by our actions as well. With this in mind, ask yourself, as a true Christian, can your position be any different than that of your Father's Kingdom?
Conclusion:
If we are children (John 1:12), we are also heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17). In the last days says God, I will pure forth My Spirit upon all flesh (Isaiah 44:3, Joel 2:28, Acts 2:17).
That time is Now!
(Psalm 95:8, Rev 3:20, Hebrews 3:15).
Do you know our friend Jesus?
Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved (Joel 2:32, Romans 10:13)
Heaven is a real place and you are invited!
To receive Jesus, pray this simple prayer:
Salvation Prayer:
Father,
I am a sinner and there is nothing I can do to save myself.
I am not able to forgive my own sins or work my way into heaven by good works.
I confess that I need Your help. I need Your Son, Jesus, to come into my life and take away all of my sins. Please forgive me in His name.
Jesus, I believe that you died for me and that You are alive, and You hear me right now.
I turn from my sins and welcome you, Jesus into my heart.
Take control of my life and make me the kind of person You created me to be.
Fill me with Your Holy Spirit and Fire. Show me how to live for You.
I acknowledge You before men as my Savior and my Lord.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
