Do you know Jesus?

Back Pew Prophesy- In 2024, a church will replace the classic altar call hymn 'Just as I am without one plea' with a QR Code 'easily'  scanned by your phone?   

Salvation is now just a tap away, empowering each of us to connect with our Jesus in a new, accessible way. Halleluiah! 

I am all for using QR codes and other technologies to communicate online Gospel messages and contacts. God's written and spoken word have the power to change lives, but at the end of a church service, offering a QR code altar call makes me cringe. BUT IT IS MY PROPHESY... LOL

So onward to social media where Christian Banter likes to declare winners and 'heretics' while leaving very little ground to just disagree. More frequent than sharing the Gospel message that saves lives are the arguments/discussions with Baptists v Pentecostals, Calvinists v Free Will folk, and Women Preachers yea or nay, OSAS or NOT, Mary is just a woman CHANGE MY MIND, Catholics v Protestants and the 'progressive' church v traditional Christianity. 

​This leaves very little time for the Gospel

So today, let's take a moment and ask, 'Do you know Jesus?'  

​For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23)
“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)

“For, ‘Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’” (Romans 10:13)

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9)

You don't need a QR code altar call after all.  Who knew?

May God bless you on your journey to pursue God daily and believe that Jesus is your Lord and Savior. May we, as believers, share the Gospel message in word and deed.

Blessings

Jeff

PS - If you find yourself drifting and the Lord feeling distant, take time to read/pray Psalms 139.
