Road to Destruction

That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. ROMANS 10:9

What happens when a society rejects the Gospel? When Nazi Germany rejected the moral restrain of Christianity, the weak, defenseless, poor, sick, mentally ill, outcast and six million Jews were killed. Ancient Greece wanted to rid the society of all deformed children. Cultures without a love for the Gospel invent their own ideas of an ideal state and follow a path of destruction. It was the Gospel that overcame infanticide and abortion in the ancient world. May I say the Gospel brings life, not only for eternity, but here on earth.

Spread the Gospel and you can bring life to a society otherwise on a road to destruction. The Gospel saves lives; it changes lives, and changes cultures. What happens when society rejects the Gospel? We have only to study history and look at what is happening around us today. Allow God to use you to make a difference. It starts by your sharing with a friend, a neighbor, a family member. Bring the life-giving message of hope and salvation, because lives really do depend on it.

APPLICATION: Write a letter about God’s salvation in Christ and send it to someone who needs to know the Gospel.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek (Gentile). ROMANS 1:16
