Gospel Message to Follow for All Hands ~ 07 April, 2026 A.D.
Heads-Up --- Please find enclosed encouragement in "SO GREAT SALVATION" by the perfect and finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ in saving poor, needy and wretched sinners by His sovereign free grace -God's unmerited favor- from their sins and from Hell:
What
has happened to the preaching of the true gospel of God's grace in
Christ? Occasionally, I watch the local religious TV station to see
what is being preached and what the local religious community is up to.
The other day I heard such an unbelievable and incredible statement of
utter, outright heresy and blasphemy against God I could hardly believe
what I heard. This is what the preacher said, 'God cannot save you unless you give Him permission.'
Such
a statement reveals the man knows nothing of the true and living God of
the Bible, for he preaches the sinner greater than the Saviour. The
scriptures teach that God is in charge in salvation not man. Christ has power over all flesh to give eternal life to as many as the Father gave Him (John 17:2; Acts 13:48). When the disciples asked the Lord, ''Who then can be saved?" what did the Redeemer say, 'I need the sinner's permission?' God forbid, NO! He said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God: FOR WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE" (Mark 10:26-27).
The preacher who thinks God is waiting upon the sinner's approval or disapproval to make salvation possible is an ignorant, arrogant fool and a false prophet. The 'god' he preaches is nothing more than an idol of his wicked imaginations. The God of the Bible does as He will, when He will, with whom He will and as He pleases. "Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did He in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places" (Psalm 135:6 & Ephesians 1:11).

May God be pleased to raise up a 'voice in the wilderness' to declare once again that Salvation is of the LORD;
to declare once again man's total inability and total depravity (John
6:44-45), to declare again the Lord Jesus Christ actually accomplished
salvation for His people (Matthew 1:21), to declare again that the blood
atonement of Christ is all that God has provided and all that He will
accept (Hebrews 10:14-17), to declare again the effectual and irresistible
call of God the Holy Spirit in making us new creatures in Christ (II Corinthians 5:17). God will use the preaching of the gospel to call out His
elect (II Thessalonians 2:13-14).
The Lord Jesus Christ does not need our
permission to make His work effectual (John 19:30; Philippians 1:6)! GOD
FORBID! What has happened to this generation of religious folks? This
verse explains it all and what we are to do (II Timothy 3:5), "Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away."
