God\u2019s word is not a some theatrical production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Salvation is God&#8217;s power at work in every area of a person&#8217;s life. In preaching the gospel of salvation we must prioritize the need for people to be born again. However, we must also preach that God want to heal, deliver, rescue them because this is what the Bible teaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apostle Paul puts it this way, \u201cFor it is by grace you have been saved, through faith\u2014and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God\u201d Ephesians 2:8 \u201cBy grace, through faith!\u201d \u201cA gift!\u201d That is really great news!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God does not want us to be hopeless or to fear. He assures us that Jesus has done everything necessary for our salvation. By the power of his Holy Spirit, he gives us faith in Christ\u2019s victory over sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, as a Ministry daily we can share the good news with those who so desperately need to hear it. May God bless us abundantly as we do these things!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. \u201cHe who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.\u201d<br>\u202d\u202dJohn\u202c \u202d3:16-18\u202c \u202d<br>Coffeewithpat.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Devotion Written By: Pastor Pat Aman Book \u00a9 1996\/2022 \u201cCoffee With Pat Daily Devotionals\u201d \u201cCoffee With A Little Spice Of Life\u201d and Westbow Press a division of \u00a9 Thomas Nelson and Library of Congress Control Number: 2018910976\u2026\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thought For Today????Author: Pat AH Aman Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ The reason why he Apostle Paul, was so ready and willing to preach it, even where he ran the greatest risk of his character and life, was, because it was &#8220;the Gospel of Christ&#8221; he preached, and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-devotions","author-admin"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2299","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2299"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2299\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2302,"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2299\/revisions\/2302"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2299"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coffeewithpat.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
