Days seem to fly by like the #speed ⇒of motion constantly propelled with more thrust. I can remember becoming a teenager in #Amarillo, #Texas during the #1950s when cars and people were very colorful. Yes, poodle skirts and bobby socks were the rage to wear while driving around in an aqua convertible! The days were filled with hope and anticipation of things to come and come they did. You see the #Billy Graham Crusade came to our football stadium. They had an organized team that prepared christian volunteers to counsel individuals that came forward during the invitation repenting of their sin and accepting Jesus Christ as their Savior. I was blessed to have been a teen counselor who was trained by Billy’s ministers on how ‘to listen and share how Jesus Saves’. What a privilege to have heard those passionate sermons delivered by Billy Graham and then to have walked down the bleachers onto the football field side by side with someone seeking Jesus. I shall always be thankful for the privilege of hearing Billy Graham and then learning from his team ways to share God’s abundant love with others. Baptists churches had a goal which stated “A Million More in ’54” so we would tell others that Jesus Saves. This training and experience influenced me into my college years. During my senior year at #Hardin Simmons University, I was teaching a Sunday School class of eleventh grade girls who began having personal quiet times with reading the Bible and prayer. I ask them if they wanted to come over to my dorm to talk about ways of sharing Jesus. So we had our girl time when I pointed out a list of scriptures from my Granny written in the back of my Bible which were followed by the principles and scriptures used in the Billy Graham Crusade.⇒John 3:16-18 “GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE. FOR GOD SENT NOT HIS SON INTO THE WORLD TO CONDEMN THE WORLD; BUT THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED. He that believes on Him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” Matt.1:21″JESUS SHALL SAVE HIS PEOPLE FROM THEIR SINS” Acts 16:30,31 “WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED? Paul and Silas said to the prisoners, “BELIEVE ON THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND YOU WILL BE SAVED” Joel 2:32 “WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED” These were my Granny’s list: + 1. Repent – Luke 13:5 + 2. Believe – Romans 10:4 +3.Receive – John 1:12 +4.Confess -Matt. 10:32 +5.Obey -John 14:15 ….. THE LIVING GOD SAVES….. yesterday, today, eternally
THE LIVING GOD – SAVES
