Summary: Making a difference as a Christian

If you went into a field at about 2:00 in the morning It would be very dark. If I lit a small light from the other side you would see it. As a matter of fact, you would turn all of your focus to it.

Think of this world as that dark field. Our world is very dark. We are more full of sin than ever. We are changing for the worst very fast. Did you know you can be a light? You can be that light in this world. We need these lights to show love and spread the gospel of Jesus Christ.

I BELIEVE FIRMLY YOU MUST BE SAVED TO TEACH SALVATION!!!!!!

To get saved you must:

1. Realize you are a sinner

2. Believe in him dying on the cross

3. Confess your sins and call on him to save you

We need to lead souls to Christ more than ever. I didn't realize how lost our world was until I went on a Mission trip to Bloomington, Indiana. People would claim “I'm Catholic” or “I'm trying to do good” or “I'm too bad” and some people would yell and cuss us out.

A. No matter your denomination God has provided us His word which says the only way to heaven is to have a personal relationship with him.

1. Admitting to him and confessing your sinners. Romans 3:23

2. Believe in what he has done for us.

3. Call on him to save you.

C. The bible says whosoever's name is not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Rev. 20:15

1. It does not say whosoever didn't do good was cast into the lake of fire

2. It does not say whosoever is not Catholic was cast into the lake of fire

3. Your past and sins will be forgiven Philippians 3:13-14
