Summary: I WANT TO SAY PRAISE THE LORD IT IS GREAT TO BE A CHRISTAN, ITS GREAT TO BE SAVED!!!!!
THE WORD OF GOD SAYS IN
1 PETER 2:9 BUT YE ARE A CHOSEN
GENERATION A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD,AN HOLY NATION,A PECULIAR
PEOPLE THAT YE SHOULD SHEW FORTH THE PRAISES OF HIM WHO
HATH CALLED YOU OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS MARVELLOUS LIGHT.KJV.
TITLE, IT SURE IS GREAT TO BE CHRISTIAN.
I WANT TO TELL YOU SOME REASON WHY IT IS GREAT TO BE A CHRISTIAN.
OUTLINE,
1.BECAUSE A GREAT PRICE IS PROVIDED. ROM.6:23
A. ITS GREAT TO BE A CHILD OF GOD BECAUSE JESUS BECAME OUR SUSTITUTE,HE GAVE HIS LIFE ON THE CROSS TO PAY THE PENALTY FOR OUR SINS.
1 PETER 2:24 WHO HIS OWN SELF BARE OUR SINS IN HIS OWN BODY ON THE TREE,THAT WE BEING DEAD TO SINS,SHOULD LIVE UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS:BY WHOSE STRIPES YE WERE HEALED.
JOHN 3;17,FOR GOD SENT NOT HIS SON INTO THE WORLD TO CONDEMN THE WORLD :BUT THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED.
2.BECAUSE A GREAT PEACE IS PRESENTED.
JOHN 14:27, PEACE I LEAVE WITH YOU,MY PEACE I GIVE UNTO YOU :NOT AS THE WORLD GIVETH,GIVE I UNTO YOU,LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED,NEITHER LET IT BE AFRAID.
ITS GREAT TO HAVE A REEL AND LASTING PEACE IN THE MIST OF SORROW,TROUBLE AND TRAILS,
PHIL.4:7
AND THE PEACE OF GOD SHALL KEEP YOUR HEARTS AND MINDS THROUGH CHRIST JESUS,
3.BECAUSE A GREAT PRIZE AND PLACE IS PROMISED.JOHN 14:2
WHILE SALVTION BRINGS TRUE CONTENTMENT AND JOY HERE AND NOW THE BEST IS YET TO COME. WE THAT ARE BORN AGAIN HAVE A BETTER PRIZE ITS A HOME IN HEAVEN WITH THE LORD.
WE ARE GOING TO A BETTER PLACE
WE ARE GOING TO A HAPPY PLACE
WE ARE GOING TO A HOLY PLACE
WE ARE GOING TO A PEACE FULL PLACE
WE ARE GOING TO SEE JESUS AND SAVED LOVE ONES AGIAN
EVERY BODY IN HEAVEN WILL BE HOLY, HONEST,HEALTHY, HAPPY,AND EVERY BODY WILL LIVE FOREVER.
REV.21:4 AND GOD SHALL WIPE AWAY ALL TEARS FROM THEIR EYES,AND THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH ,NEITHER SORROW,NOR CRYING,NEITHER SHALL THERE BE ANY MORE PAIN:FOR THE FORMER THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY.
IT SURE IS GREAT TO BE A CHRISTIAN.
BECAUSE A GREAT PRICE IS PROVIDED
BECAUSE A GREAT PEACE IS PRESENTED
BECAUSE A GREAT PRIZE AND PLACE IS PROMISED.
IN CLOSING THERE ARE MANY OTHER REASONS WHY ITS GREAT
TO BE A CHRISTIAN BECAUSE
I HAVE A HOPE .HEB.6:19
I HAVE A HIDING PLACE.PS 32:7
I HAVE A HELPER. PS 121, PS 46:1
I HAVE THE HOLY SPIRT. JOHN 14:18
IT SURE IS GREAT TO BE CHRISTIAN BECAUSE I DONT HAVE TO GO TO HELL, IM COVERD BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS , AMEN !!!!!!!!
IF YOUR NOT SAVED CALL ON JESUS TODAY
BECAUSE THERE IS ROOM AT THE CROSS FOR YOU,
ROMANS 10:13,FOR WHOSOEVER SHALL CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.
