The True Gospel







                                                "Whenever the true message of the cross is abolished, the anger of
                                                 hypocrites and heretics ceases.. and all things are in peace. This is
                                                 a sure token that the devil is guarding the entry to the house, and
                                                 that the PURE doctrine of God's Word has been taken away. The Church
                                                 then, is in the BEST state, when Satan assaileth it on every side...
                                                 both with subtle sleights, and outright violence. And likewise it is
                                                 in the WORST state when it is most at peace!"
                                                  -Martin Luther

Oh, my....what to say? My heart skips a beat when I read this as it reminds me that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is a sharp sword that cuts through to the truth. It doesn't make apologies and it doesn't waiver from the straight edge of truth. The Gospel is either all true or none of it is true. It is pure, unadulterated, crystalline, and faithful. It is what we live by and it is what saves our souls. You must be born-again if you want to enter the kingdom of God. Ask Christ to reveal Himself to you today and I assure you He will! 

God bless,
