1 Corinthians 15:1-4 "Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"
For a person to be saved they must put their trust and faith in Jesus Christ alone as their Lord and Savior. They must believe that the Gospel is true as it is written in 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. How will they know that it is true? The Bible shows how in Romans 10:17, "17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." As Christians we are to share the Gospel at every opportunity. Sharing the Gospel can be done in many different ways. You can present it one on one using the bible or Gospel tracts. This is the most effective because you are available to answer questions and lead them to other passages to illustrate God's love. If you feel nervous talking to others about this, you can also share the Gospel by writing it on Facebook, Twitter, placing magnetic signs on your car, sending it via e-mail or a blog, leaving Gospel tracts in various locations, and countless other ways. Psalms 68:11 directs us in this by stating, "The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it."
Sharing the Gospel and leading someone to the Lord should be a priority in your life. Start Today!
God Bless!!
Vigilant Christian
•1 Peter 5:6-8 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour

What is Truth?
John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
People assumptions about what is right or wrong, true or false, are based on what authority they choose to follow. As Christians, we must accept and follow the authority of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His written word, the Bible. Those that choose not to follow God's word, such as atheist, humanists, and other non-Christians religions, will not uphold or speak the truth, as is written in Jeremiah 9:5, "And they will deceive every one his neighbor, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and weary themselves to commit iniquity."
As Christians, we are instructed to serve God in truth, meditate on it, and share it with everyone and with every opportunity that we are given. This is explained in these three scriptures:
1 Samuel 12:24 "Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you."
Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Ephesians 4:25 "Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are members one with another.
Read God's word and bear witness to the truth by your thoughts, words and deeds.
May God Bless!!
