About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"WHERE IS YOUR 'ALL THE WORLD'?" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
WHERE IS YOUR "ALL THE WORLD"?
ISN'T IT GREAT TO KNOW THAT THE LORD HAS THOUGHT OF PEACE TOWARD US? THAT IS WHAT JEREMIAH 29:11 SAYS "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." JUST TO THINK THAT THE LORD WHO CREATED THIS WHOLE UNIVERSE, THINKS ABOUT US. WHEN READING THIS, WE HAVE TO REALIZE THIS WAS HUNDREDS OF YEARS BEFORE JESUS, OUR LORD, WAS EVEN BORN. I WOULD ASSUME THAT THE "EXPECTED END" WOULD BE OUR SALVATION AND OUR BEING ABLE TO LIVE WITH HIM THROUGHOUT ETERNITY. THAT IS AN "expected end" I AM ENJOYING NOW. YOU ASK HOW I CAN SAY I AM ENJOYING THE "EXPECTED END" NOW? THE DICTIONARY SAYS THAT ETERNITY MEANS "infinite time; duration without beginning or end." WE ARE LIVING IN ETERNITY NOW.
IN THE NEXT TWO VERSES HE TALKS ABOUT US PRAYING TO HIM AND FINDING HIM WHEN WE SEARCH WITH ALL OUR HEARTS. VERSES 12 & 13 "Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." WE CAN'T JUST PLAY AT BEING CHRISTIANS. WE HAVE TO SEARCH FOR HIM WITH ALL OUR HEARTS. WHEN WE DO FIND HIM, WE HAVE TO TRUST HIM, OBEY HIM, AND BELIEVE THAT HE DIED, WAS BURIED AND ROSE AGAIN. WE CAN DO THIS IF WE JUST STUDY HIS HOLY WORD.
WE ALL HAVE A JOB TO DO AND THAT IS TO GO INTO "ALL THE WORLD" AND PREACH THE GOSPEL. THIS IS WHAT JESUS TELLS US IN MARK 16:15 WHERE HE SAYS "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." YOUR "ALL THE WORLD" MIGHT BE JUST IN THE COMMUNITY WHERE YOU LIVE, TELLING YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS ABOUT JESUS. IF YOU TRAVEL A LOT, THAT COULD BE YOUR "ALL THE WORLD". WE ALL CAN DO SOMETHING. MY "ALL THE WORLD" IS RIGHT HERE ON MY COMPUTER PUTTING OUT A MESSAGE EVERY MORNING TELLING OF THE LOVE OF JESUS AND HE IS THE ONLY WAY TO THE FATHER AS IT SAYS IN 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.
REMEMBER THE WORDS OF JESUS WHEN, IN MATTHEW 9:37, HE SAID "The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few". BE A LABORER TODAY IN YOUR "ALL THE WORLD" AND TELL SOMEONE ABOUT JESUS. HE IS THINKING ABOUT US AND WE SHOULD ALWAYS BE THINKING ABOUT HIM AND OBEYING HIS COMMANDMENTS.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR REMARKS WAYNE. IT IS ALL SO TRUE AND THOSE PEOPLE REALLY NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH. WE JUST NEED TO KEEP ON PREACHING GOD'S WORD AND PRAYING THAT THEIR EYES WILL BE OPENED TO THE TRUTH. THANKS AGAIN AND GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU SAFE.
Well the WORLD is BIGGER than we could ever know. It is MASSIVE and so many of us will NEVER travel the whole world and get to see as many nations as exist. But we know when the lord Jesus Christ said go into ALL the world and preach the gospel he understood its complication but than being one of GREAT FAITH he knew that the gospel would eventually get preached around the world in all its complicated circumstances of resistance throughout time. He said I send you out among wolves. And we know history reflects what we see, hear and read about.
We can preach for hours of how God is love and we are in eternity NOW and miss the mark. We can get lost in love or what we perceive as love and forget we are at war with an enemy called death (2nd), hell & the grave. Many will perish. God hates watered down warm fluffy feel good preaching. People wanted MANNA but they perished in the desert. We can tell people about the biblical Jesus Christ but many tell those whom do to go "F" themselves. The truth is many have pleasure in unrighteousness. God has love for those whom love him and even for those who don't. He is merciful but some people think that means he will spare everyone from being hell-bound. There is a great fallen away and we see what is going on around the earth these days just as foretold. (The apostasy/falling away)
There is a reason to preach HELL as there will be crying and gnashing of teeth on earth and on judgment day. Sometimes when people pass on their loved ones are told (God called him/her home) when they were never true believers. They may have thought they were. The devil is clever. Wake up. The biblical Jewish Jesus Christ is REAL . He is a consuming fire. Hell is no picnic. A man/woman MUST be born again.
True love is found in the gospel of the lord Christ !/His word and his only begotten son. To some it may not always SEEM TO show as there is a CROSS to bear and seriousness of God wanting others saved. So many are lost and living greedy for themselves. Money won't save them. Carnal fleshy sinful love won't save them. Only the blood the Jewish biblical Jesus Christ shed on the cross has the capability to save them. They (sinful humans) need to be preached whom the person of Jesus Christ TRULY was/is and in his RISEN state. He is RISEN! Wake up people.
We have a sinful evil society like never before-us. Telling does not always work. Many have ears but MANY cannot hear and REFUSE to hear. Not only is faith required in Christ's sacrifice but there needs to be repentance and belief on the gospel . They laughed at Noah and the flood came and took them all away. Be warned As Christ said so it shall be so in his coming.
Sinners/People, they are lost in entertainment in these end times and many other things that ensnare them. Sure they love themselves but Not all the biblical Jesus Christ. Recall when God was upset at his chosen people as he could not stand their new moons and their new songs. Why? They denied the true savor but were falling away and missing the point of being a doer of the word of God. (Listning to their God and obeying him). Same today as that fallen away is here. We have a fallen nature and need to overcome and do HIS WILL and not OURS. Some will say we need to do nothing but believe. Christ said the braches that disobey are cut off and thrown into the fire. Be warned people as cutting short the gospel is not appropriate. Get with it. He/Christ is looking for disciple that will not slack off and remain true to the vein. We are not just talking about true Christians here but none believer's and people that are GREATLY deceived.
The very shocker truth is people THINK they can serve two masters. It is Impossible.
Bless you DAVID as God LOVES YOU
