TEXT Isaiah 45.22-23 ESV

22 “Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other. 23 By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: ‘To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.’

  • SALVATION IS FOR ALL

Romans 10.13-15 ESV 13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” 14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”

 

  • SALVATION IS BY FAITH

Romans 10.17-19 ESV

17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. 18 But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have, for “Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.”

 

  • SALVATION IS IN JESUS

Acts 13.47 ESV 47 For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, “‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’”

Acts 4.12 ESV 12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

 

“A yearning love for Christ and for the souls He died to save will prove the mainspring of our drive. Capped by the impartation of Holy Ghost capacity, God, through us, can move the world!” – Oren E. Munger, 1920-1945
