Speaker 0: Welcome to another episode of Commission Thursday.
Speaker 0: I hope you are enjoying the season and even as you enjoy the season, just a kind reminder that you are still the light of the world, the salt of the earth.
Speaker 0: You are the Christ ambassador and you are the carrier of the message of good news.
Speaker 0: So turn with me.
Speaker 0: In the book of John, chapter 3, verse 17, from the Passion translation, that scripture says God did not send his son into the world to judge and condemn the world, but to be his savior and rescue it.
Speaker 0: So now there is no longer any condemnation for those who believe in him, but the unbeliever already lives under condemnation because they do not believe in the name of God's beloved son.
Speaker 0: Okay, so the Bible is reminding us that there is a beloved son of God who God sent into the world.
Speaker 0: Because of this amazing season and this season, as we remember the love of God, let's also remember that we are believers.
Speaker 0: First of all, what do we believe on?
Speaker 0: We believe in the fact that Jesus Christ came here on earth, we who were bound in sin, we people who are living in condemnation, we people who are useless and helpless according to the standard of the world.
Speaker 0: But Christ came to rescue us, to redeem us and to make us whole.
Speaker 0: So in this season is a season for us to remember that we are believers, and this believing in Jesus Christ is not only does not only come to that as a point that we believe and that's the end, but he says that this beloved son, he called us into a family where we can also belong to the family of God.
Speaker 0: So, after the believing, god will walk with us so that we can belong to this family of God, and that's why we are one with Jesus Christ.
Speaker 0: We are seated with him in heavenly places, far above principalities and the voices of this earth.
Speaker 0: So, as you enjoy this season, don't allow peer pressure in front of this world to make you compromise on the faith that you believe, because God has set you apart, god has consecrated you to be the light.
Speaker 0: So as people marry, it's a kind reminder that you are the light, you are the salt.
Speaker 0: So stand out and let your light shine.
Speaker 0: Stand out and be the salt of this earth, because you belong to the family of God.
Speaker 0: And as we belong to this family, there is a responsibility that comes with this.
Speaker 0: So, where God has planted if you'll be going back in the village.
Speaker 0: If you will be back in the city, just remember that is the place God has allowed you to be in this season and the main reason for you to be in that particular place and time is to be the light, to be the salt and to be the carrier of the message of good news.
Speaker 0: So enjoy your season and let people know about Jesus Christ in this season.
Speaker 0: Be blessed.
