Romans 10:14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

How is anyone going to get to know about Jesus, God or the Holy Spirit unless we speak up about them? This world is like a honey trap, encouraging people in and then trapping them in a deep hole.

Christ wants us to be able to be free from the ties of this world which means we should be telling others of this good news.

Don’t keep the bible to yourself, take what you hear and pass it on to others. Yes there will be people who reject it, but there will be other who do not!

Joel 2:32 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved; for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be deliverance, as the Lord has said, even among the survivors whom the Lord calls.

Joel laid out many warnings of what would happen to the people but also gave hope by reminding us we have a choice to make.

If we choose to continue following the world, then the only reward we shall ever see is of this world.

But if we choose to follow Christ and His will, then the rewards we will see are not limited to this world but of the great things to come when Christ returns.

Set your sites up toward heaven.

Romans 10:12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him

Moses lead the people God chose to be His special people; the twelve tribe who make up the Jewish people – the people of Israel.

Jesus came to show us we all have a place in Heaven. Moses and the laws were written for the people of Israel to be an example for us all.

Christ taught amongst the Jews and sent His disciples to teach the Jews; but He also sent others such as Paul to reach out to everybody else.

We have a place in His heart just as others do. Trust Him and Believe!

Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

God showed us, through Christ, we have a way to be with Him in heaven even though we fall short of the mark – we have all fallen short of those laws written down by Moses!

If we are willing to accept in our hearts that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died for our sins and has been raised from the dead, then we will have the same treatment from Christ.

God wants us all to be with Him in heaven. Our sin stops us from getting there. But Christ is willing to wipe the slate clean if we are willing to accept He can!
