Here, There, and Everywhere with the SBC

Kyle and Matt get together to discuss how local churches can emphasize the "here, there, and everywhere" aspect of our calling to make disciples individually/corporately, and also collectively as a family of churches. For ministry training that prioritizes both the Great Commandment and the Great Commission, we would encourage you to consider Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Southwestern Seminary equips students in living their calling, seeking to glorify God through Christ-centered education that encourages academic excellence and faithful ministry preparation.

They are grace filled, Christ centered, scripturally grounded, confessionally guided, student focused, and globally engaged.

Don't you just love a good sunrise? My favorite time of day is to be out in God's creation and in a place where the beauty of the first light of day paints a masterpiece. There's something special about walking in that morning light. It reminds me of what it is to "walk in the Light, " as scripture tells us. "but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin." #1john1v7 But what does that mean, "to walk in the Light?" We live in a world where we often find it difficult to talk to others about our faith. Most of us get caught up in the rat race of life and seldom give our great commission a second thought. "What is the Great Commission, " you ask? Jesus tells us in the gospel of Matthew, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" #matthew28v19 But if we believe in Jesus and we try to live our lives as Christ-like as possible, we begin to emulate Him. It is then the Light of Christ starts to radiate from you and the world around you will notice. We live in a fallen world. Around us there is spiritual darkness. But we as Christians are called to walk in the Light of Christ, and when we do, His light will shine through us. You don't have to scream from the street corners, and you don't have to get in people's faces to make a difference. If nothing else, live as Christ and let your light shine and God will bless those around you in ways you can't imagine. So, go out today and try to be the Light and try to count your many blessings, and you will find your day a little brighter. #thanksbetoGod #livingforGod #blueridgemountains #morningwalk #morning #light #lightinthedarkness #sunrise #Godscreation #godslight #greatcommission #basslakenc #walking #bethelight #shine #forgodsglory #lake #mosescone #faith #hope #love https://www.instagram.com/p/ChbzC3GuLJv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finisher of Faith

How grateful we are, o Lord, that You are present in every place, even in the darkest valley, or the loneliest wilderness, or in the slough of despond. You are with us and for us. #AdventDevotional #AdventMeditation #Magnificat #GreatCommission

“according to the promise he made to our ancestors, to Abraham and to his descendants forever.’”Mary’s Magnificat, Luke 1:52 (NRSV) Faithful Forever One of the distinctives of Judaism is this tracing back to a single progenitor of faith and fatherhood, for Abraham is both the father of a people and the pioneer of monotheism. In her conclusion to Mary’s magnificent praise to Mighty God, she…

Have you, in any way, managed to share the Gospel message of Christ Jesus’ saving grace to them whom you consider dear and close to your heart?

Those around you who have a concept of a God of Creation but do not really bother to seek the Heavenly Father’s will?

Those whom you’ve shared a fragment of your life with while in your unregenerate state, but now that you’ve experienced God’s gift of salvation and the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit, you don’t spend as much time with no matter the reason?

Those whom you’ve known from a long way back, prior to the accomplishments, degrees and appended initials alongside your names?

Do you pray that they may know Jesus in an intimate and personal manner and receive Him as their Lord and personal Saviour?

Today, I am reminded of them..

Today, I am reminded to pray for them, and reach out.

Friends usher friends to heaven.

“Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.” (James 4:14).

Many a times, I take for granted that day by day, in God’s loving and tender mercies, He grants me with new chances to encounter Him, through the people He put in my life and the environment He designed me to be in at a given moment.

Today, I am reminded that my friends need Christ Jesus as their Saviour, and my heart is terribly aching for them. I don’t want them to die not knowing they are accountable to God one day, should they waste their lives doing their own thing, pursuing their own will, subscribing to the idea that Christianity is but a fool’s uninformed worldview. “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).

Looking back, I can’t help feeling grateful when I ponder on the fact that God in His loving kindness saved me at a time where skepticism and doubts and bitterness pervaded my thinking. It is only by His grace that I am saved. He can do that for my friends, too, but I should be doing my part.

To you, my brother and sister who is reading this, don’t be that one Christian friend in your circle who failed to do his part in proclaiming Jesus’ work on Calvary’s cross to pay for the penalty of ALL man’s sins. Share that “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). The simple message of salvation and way to heaven rests on this elemental truth-- ”Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Him” (John 14:6).

Without one admitting his sinfulness before God, without one genuinely repenting from his sin and without him turning toward God and accepting Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, he cannot attain a truly delightful and fulfilling life. He simply lives a purposeless and senseless existence, devolved from the view of the bliss of eternity, here and now (qualitatively). He misses out on the promise that someday in heaven, we can get to spend our lives in the presence of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, our Blessed Hope (Titus 2:13), praising Him and ever satisfied in Him. After all, our earthly lives are ephemeral, but our souls eternal.

If one chooses to harden his heart concerning this truth, or in an unlikely circumstance, failed to hear the salvation message from those around him or events in His life that revealed God at work, what a sad and heart-wrenching reality that is for that person! My heart aches deeply for him.

Instead of a life free from the bondage of sin and thirst to sin, one is doomed to live a life with a clouded view of what truly is essential. It isn’t wealth, riches, fame and accomplishments. I do not mean that they are bad in and of themselves. Such just don’t count as much with eternity in view. “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” (Mark 8:36).

Instead of the promises and the joy of communing with God daily, one is doomed to a sentence in the unquenchable punishment in hell someday with the Father of this world Satan, the deceiver of many. “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world” (1 John 2:16).

Instead of a life so transformed and mightily used by God, if one chooses to willfully deny that Jesus Christ indeed is God and Lord of all, that He saves regardless of how unforgivable our sins may seem humanly speaking, one is carrying the burden he need not carry.

There will always be a void, an emptiness, a longing within the human soul to find peace. I am speaking as a person so damaged by sin, rebellion and unrest. (Aren’t we all?)

Let it be known that the “Prince of Peace”, “the Counsellor”, “the mighty God”, “the Everlasting Father” (Isaiah 9:6) is still into the business of saving lives, and offering peace for our weary souls. He says lovingly,

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)

I beg you, my brother and sister in the Lord, share God’s love for the whole of mankind. Share it with your friends, lovingly. Let them see how Jesus Christ offers forgiveness, peace and life eternal that cannot be taken away from them who received Him gladly in their hearts. “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name” (John 1:12).

Friends usher friends to heaven.

You know this to be true. I know this to be true.

Let us do our part in fulfilling the great commission out of love, for the souls of those whom God consider precious-- enough that He let His Son shed his blood and die, an unblemished, blameless and perfect sacrifice to atone for the penalty of the whole of the wicked world, us included.

Let us share the message that “God commendeth His love towards in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

Share the Good News of God’s free gift of salvation by His grace, and pray for them that are yet without the eternal life in Christ Jesus.

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9).

“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. “ (Psalm 126:5).

Friends usher friends to heaven. Have you, in any way, managed to share the Gospel message of Christ Jesus’ saving grace to them whom you consider dear and close to your heart? Let us.

Prejudice

I was shocked to learn about a man's airway being blocked off by a police officer when that police officer put his knee on his neck. What if I told you that man was a black man? And what if I told you that police officer was a white man? Would it change your perception of what was right and what was wrong? If your perception changed, then why?

In high school, I had gotten into trouble multiple times for being friends with black people and dating black guys. At the time, I didn't understand why, and I was too scared to ask my parents why. I just knew it was wrong but it didn't make sense to me. I continued being friends with people of any skin color, despite my parent's threats. In my mind, people were just people. As children, we sang in church that "Jesus loves the little children. All the children of the world. Red and yellow. Black and white. They are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world." So, why then couldn't I be friends with them? One time I was brave and I asked why. The response that I got was…"you know why." No, I didn't. It's why I asked. But I was fearful of saying that I didn't know because I was afraid of getting hit upside the head. Yes, I unfortunately grew up in an abused home. So I was careful in what I said and did but for some reason, I still continued to be friends with black people. And I got punished for it by my family. In fact, this one time I went to a banquet with a black boy. He had come to pick me up from my home. I told him not to drive down my driveway but he did anyway. Thankfully, he stayed in the car and waited for me to get in. (My whole school knew how my parents were.) Unfortunately, my mom saw him through the window. She tried to stop me from leaving the house but I didn't listen. She said she was going to tell my dad and I was going to be in trouble. Sure enough, when I got home, my dad yelled at me and took away all my privileges, including my job at school. I wasn't allowed to be at school any longer than I had to be, especially since that boy went to my school.

As I got older, I realized it was my culture. My South Asian culture had learned, at some point, that it was unacceptable to be a dark skin tone. It was looked down upon, almost like a curse. Many people in my culture would try to lighten their skin tone with various beauty products. (In India, there were a ton of beauty products claiming it could lighten one's skin tone.) It was better to be white than to be black. When getting married, the families would look for an Indian boy or girl of lighter skin tone. My parents said multiple times that the girl looked pretty if she had a whitish skin tone. It was not acceptable for the girl to be darker than the boy. So sad.

Here's the truth. There's only one heaven. If we can't get along here on earth, then heaven is going to be miserable because it will contain people of all races, tribes, tongues, and color. Nowhere in the Bible does it say there is a heaven for black people, a heaven for brown people, and a heaven for white people. It does NOT exist. I truly believe God created us different (colors, races, languages, beliefs, etc) to see if we would truly love one another. There are multiple Bible verses where God tells us to love each other. It doesn't say to only love people of a certain color, kindred, tribe, culture, etc. It simply says to love each other.

"Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God." 1 John 4:7 KJV

Here's the interesting twist. When we hate someone, we actually are breaking the 10 commandments. Say what?! Keep reading.

"If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?" 1 John 4:20 KJV

"Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer, and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him." 1 John 3:15 KJV

Here's another truth. This hatred all started by one being, Satan. He's the one using people to accomplish his agenda, which is to destroy ourselves and miss out on Heaven. Don't let him use you like that.

"For we wrestle NOT against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12 KJV

Our fight is not with ourselves but with Satan. It's a spiritual warfare. What happened to George Floyd is absolutely tragic. Do you know why Satan wanted him put down? Because Brother Floyd was preaching the Gospel to a group of gangsters in the Third Ward in Houston, TX, which is the 15th most dangerous area in the country. He was following the Great Commission:

"Go ye therefore, and teach ALL nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen." Matthew 28:19‭-‬20 KJV

So Satan (the thief) had to put Floyd down. He couldn't let any more people turn to God.

"The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy…" John 10:10a KJV

As the country mourns for this Christian man, let us practice true love and forgiveness. Let us pray for our enemies, as the Bible asks us to do, and show them what it means to truly love our enemies.

"Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you" Matthew 5:43-44 KJV
