Purposeful Call

February 4, 2020 by ohsbc-wm

Everyone who is called by My name, and whom I have created for My glory, Whom I have formed, even whom I have made.”—Isaiah 43:7 NASB

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.—Eph 2:10 ESV

Every benefactor of spiritual birth by the grace of God has been wired with purpose to share: the life-giving gospel to unbelievers and the ever-transformed life with fellow believers.

Believers are Wired to Share the Life-Giving Gospel to Unbelievers

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” —Acts 1:8

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,—Matt 28:19

When they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch,—Acts 14:21

You are the salt of the earth. . . You are the light of the world. . . —Matt 5:13, 14

By sharing the gospel, believers are proclaiming their identity, reminding them of salvation, and protecting them against temptation.

Believers are Wired to Share the Ever-Transformed Life with Fellow Believers

They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. —Acts 2:42

When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying. —Acts 12:12

not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but  encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.—Hebrews 10:25

In fellowship we, share together one heart of praise and worship to God, shield each other against the danger and damage of warfare,  and support and encourage each other until the end.
