Gospel Meant For All

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because He hath anointed me to preach the Gospel.” Now, the question is, who shall the Gospel be preached to? There is a certain class of people who think that the Gospel is very good for drunkards, and thieves, and vagabonds; but there are so many of these self-righteous Pharisees to-day, who are drawing their filthy rags of self-righteousness around them, and thinking the Bible is for a certain class.

If I understand it correctly, the Gospel is for all. There is no distinction; rich and poor must be served alike; learned and unlearned, all have to come into the Kingdom of God one way, and that is by believing the Gospel of Jesus Christ —MOODY.

A Personal Promise

Reflections on the Incarnation and Freedom of God

Philip Yancey

Think of the condescension involved: the incarnation, which sliced history into two parts had more animal than human witnesses. Think, too, of the risk. In the incarnation, God spanned the vast chasm of fear that had distanced him from his human creation.

The Blessing of the Presence of Jesus

Charles Spurgeon

He is as certainly with us now as He was with the disciples at the lake when they saw coals of fire, fish on the coals, and bread (John 21:9). Not physically, but still in real truth, Jesus is with us!
