JESUS LOVES ME - NEW VERSION (PICTURE)

I still love the original song, even though I'm 57 years old.  Simple and sweet, a child's song but yet it says it all.  I like the words to this one too.  Our Church is rife with false doctrine, wolves and heresies.  We need to get back to worshiping Him in Spirit and truth.  We need to get the Gospel message right and lead others to salvation.  We need to stop worrying about the date of the rapture, are we in the end times and get back to doing what He commanded...our Great Commission to go out and spread the Good News to the outermost parts of the world.  Some are even saying "church" is only for the saints and we should not let sinners in but rather we are to go to them, where they live, and share the Gospel.  The reason is that church was to equip the saints by encouraging, supporting, correction and rebuking to go out and lead the lost.  Sometimes it may be necessary to kick people out of our churches.  In most ways, I disagree with this but there is some truth in it.  That's how the first Church did things and look around you the next time you attend, how many lost people are coming in to us?  Our visitors are probably new to the area or seeking a new home church for some reason, maybe even coming back to our Lord and Savior after straying.  Do we see the sinners seeking God and be honest?  I don't.  I think not allowing an unsaved person into your church is a horrible idea on many levels nor do I support that but what is breaking my heart and where I see the church failing today is I do not see US going out to where the sinners are and preaching the Gospel.  They're lost.  They don't  have the Holy Spirit to convict them to go to church unless they were once involved in it and then they may hear that small, still voice but today, that's rare.  So, we can't blame the lost when we -- the Bride of Christ -- is disobeying His commandment.  People die and will perish every single day because no one led them to the Cross.  Their blood is on our hands collectively.  So, what are we to do?  I say obey Him and if you personally cannot get out, you're not excused.  You are a member of the Body and therefore you have a special part to play.  I share my faith with everyone I meet but do I spread the Gospel?  Not all the time but well over half of the people I do get to meet are already involved in church.  We can all partake by supporting those who do go out and share the Gospel.  Oh, and Christianity is flourishing today...that's great news but the bad news is, it's not in growing at all in America, the one country you'd expect.  Oh, and I listened to a lot of testimonies yesterday about Jews all over the world are now coming Yeshua Messiah.  That is great news.  God bless and sing this little song for it has a powerful and true message.  Jesus loves you...He didn't promise you a perfect, trouble-free life.


The Only Saving Gospel is found in First Corinthians 15:1-11

THE CROSS
DEATH/BURIAL/RESURRECTION
ASCENSION
THE FREE GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
BELIEVE AND TRUST IN JESUS CHRIST ALONE FOR SALVATION
HE WILL GIVE YOU A NEW HEART AND NEW DESIRES
YOU CAN'T DO IT, ONLY HE CAN...AND WILL
