BIBLE MEDITATION:
1 John
5:1 - "Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of
God."
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
What is salvation?
It's not a creed. You say, "Well, I believe the plan of salvation."
You can believe the plan of salvation and go straight to hell. You're not saved
by the plan of salvation; you're saved by the Man of salvation. Salvation is
not a creed. It's not a code. You say, "Well, I believe if you live right,
you'll go to heaven." If you could be saved by living right then Calvary
was a blunder. It's not a cause. You say, "I'm a member of a good,
fundamental, Bible-believing church." It's not any of these things. It's
Christ. Salvation is not believing something; it is receiving Someone. The true
gospel is one that centers in Jesus Christ.
ACTION POINT:
Ask God to give you a
divine opportunity to boldly share Jesus with someone today. Maybe it's a
co-worker; maybe it's your child. Maybe it's a stranger that sits next to you
at a restaurant. Be strong and of good courage; God will go before you to
prepare the way.
