When I'm traveling in the United States, sometimes I see a big billboard. Jesus love you. Or God want bless to you. God want give to you eternal life. And I think interesting, these people who made this billboard, what he want to say? He preaching gospel or not? In Russia, I know a lot of weird people, weird person. One man, he buy water, bottled water, and stay on the street and give people water and say, hey, Jesus love you. Love you, yeah. Another person, he say, do you want to go to heaven? People say, yes. Okay, pray with me. and person pray and he say, okay, you go to heaven. We need preaching gospel of Christ, but what is gospel of Christ? Say, Jesus love you or pray with me, this is gospel of Christ or not? When reading Bible, Apostle Paul, and not the apostles, tell to us what gospel of Christ. I want reading one text, Ephesians chapter two. True gospel, gospel of Christ have two parts. Two parts, who is God and who is man. Who is God and who is man. If we knows only part true, we don't know what is true. Part true is not true. And Apostle Paul said to us, who is man and who is God? The Bible tell us about the total depravity of man. Ephesians chapter two, one, two, three. And you had, he quickened, who were dead in transgressions and sins. Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now walketh in the children of disobedience. among whom also we all had our conversations in times past in the lust of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature the children of wrath even as others. God says everyone, people, every one man, he wicked man, he dead in sin. This big problem for us, when Adam feel, all mankind feel. When Adam feel, all mankind feel. Everyone, son of Adam, have corrupted nature, have wicked nature. He have spiritual diet inside. His lifestyle against to God. His lifestyle, or all lifestyle before generations, it's a resist to God, disobedience to word of God. It's our nature, it's human nature. This world like humanism, people, everyone is good, but we need better. Bible say no. Everyone, everyone is wicked person, bad person. We can't make good things without God. We can make only bad things because our wicked heart like sin, like evil, like disobedience. This is our nature. Apostle Paul says, we are a spiritual dead. We do not have spiritual life in ourselves. We can't save ourselves. Because we diet person, spiritual diet. We can walk, we can speak, we can eat, but we diet before God. We diet for all spiritual things. We can't understand spiritual things. We can't understand true of God. Because all corruptions, nature, or corruption nature. It's a problem for spiritual things. We cannot have fellowship with God because God is holy. Person is sinner. Holy God and bad person. Sinner person. This is a problem for us. Sometimes people say, I'm not really a bad person. I'm not good, I'm not a perfect person, but I'm not bad. I'm level, level like all. If you will made 99% good things, made 99% right, and only 1% is bad, you're sinners. Adam, Adam. made only one disobedience, only one. And God said, go outside. And when Adam made sin, he spiritually died. He died in spirit. He died for God. How spiritual dead person can be saved? How he can be saved? Because holy God, he is righteousness God. He will be judge for this world. One day Jesus coming, come second time. He come for salvation chosen people and for judge to unbelievers people. All world, all corruption world will be destroyed. Because God, Jesus coming for judge. How we can save? First part of true gospel. Everyone is bad. Everyone is wicked. Romans 5. 512, Gospel of Romans, no Gospel, it's Gospel of Romans 2. It's Epistle of Romans, but Epistle of Romans show to us Gospel, Gospel of Christ. 512. Very for us by one man's sin, enter, enter, entered into the world and died by sin. And so death passed upon all men, for they all have sinned." All the children of Adam are sinners, because sin is our heritage. Okay, it's the word heritage. If parents died, what? Heritance, yeah. Sin, it's all heritance. It's bad heritance, but it is all our heritance. How we can save if we bad person? Bibles say to us, but God who is rich in mercy. This is second part of gospel of Christ. First part, man is bad, but God is good. It's the second part of true gospel. This is text give to us hope, give to us confidence in future, because God is good. God who is rich in mercy. God who is rich in mercy. The work of grace, it's necessary for us. It's necessary. Because we can, we can save ourself and we need work of grace in our heart. Work of grace. but God who is rich in mercy for his great love, wherewith he loveth us. How God loveth us? Sometimes people ask, have questions, how I know God loveth me or not? It's believers, people. I have a lot of problems, I have a lot of troubles, a lot of suffering in my life. I believe in God, but Sometimes I don't know God love me or not. Reading Bible, reading Bible. God give to us Bible. Bible is word of God, reading Bible. But God who is rich in mercy for his great love, great love. Why God love us? Not because we are a good person, because He is rich of mercy. He is full of love. This is one cause why God loves us, because He is rich of mercy. When God regenerated us, He gave to us a new nature, a new heart, a new spirit. And we can knows who is God, we can, after the generations, when Holy Spirit give to us spiritual life, He give to us true faith in Jesus. And we can faith in Jesus, we can believe in Jesus, because Holy Spirit give to us spiritual life. He open our eyes, spiritual eyes, He's open our spiritual hear, and we can see, and we can hear. We can see the Kingdom of God, Gospel of John chapter 3, and we can hear His word, His voice. Gospel of John chapter 10, my sheep hear my voice. We have all blessings in Christ. We have all blessings because of God who is rich in mercy, who is rich in mercy to us. Bible tell to us, for by grace are ye saved. By grace. What is grace? Grace is not work, not work. Grace is grace. Work is work. We saved by grace, not by work. Because Jesus died for us on the Calvary. Jesus paid for all our sin on the Calvary. We have salvation because Jesus died for us. My sin and your sin was imputed to Christ on the Calvary and His righteousness. was imputed to us. I am a bad person, but I am a righteous man in Christ, by Christ, by grace. We have all spiritual blessings only in Christ. Only in Christ, Ephesians chapter one. We have all spiritual blessings in Christ. Paul say, not of works. Not of works. Not of works. By grace. Free grace. Free grace for election people. Free grace to God's people. Free grace. That of grace, it's humbling to us. Because our pride heart, we like salvation by work. Because sometimes it's easy. It's good for human pride. Oh, I can make good things. I will. I will do good things and I will be saved because I'm a good person. But doctrine of grace is against salvation by work. Romans and Galatians, Apostle Paul say about work and grace. Grace is not work, and work is not grace. Grace is grace, work is work. Why? Why we save it by grace? If salvation is by work, glory for your salvation, to you, if salvation is by work. If salvation is by grace, by blood of Jesus, all glory to Christ. Not for me, not for you. Not for human pride, only for Christ, all glory. And Paul say, for we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good work, which God had before ordained, that we shall walk in them. We save it not by good work, but we save it, God save us for good work. True faith and obedience, faith and obedience, it's not cause or salvation. True faith and obedience is consequences or salvation. Evidence or salvation. James chapter two, James said about true faith, about fake faith, demons faith. My work show to me who I am. My work, my obedience to God and my faith evidence of my salvations. We don't believe in salvation by work. We believe in salvation by grace. But good work is a second part to salvation. First, salvation and faith by God. Faith from God. And second, new life. New creation in Christ. 2 Corinthians 5.17. who in Christ knew creation, Paul said. We do good work, not for salvation, but for God's glory. All good work, glorified for our God, exalted through God. We need sick for good work. Sick for good work because all good work glorified our God. Matthew 5.16. Matthew 5.16. 5.16. Let your light so shine before men that they die. Thy may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Why I need made good work? For salvation? No. For glory to God, for God's glory. This is good motivations. Because sometimes people say, okay, If I have salvation, if I have eternal salvation in Christ, why do I need to make good work? It's not necessary. I can lose salvation. Yeah, but Jesus said you need to make good work for the glory of God. We don't need to think of ourselves. We need to think about the glory of God, about God's glory. And Titus, 2.14. Titus, Titus. Titus 2.14. Who give himself for us that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify unto himself a presolar Recalling people zealous of good work. Zealous of good work for God's glory. For God's glory. This is true gospel. This is gospel of Christ, who is man and who is God. What man made, it's only sin. And what God made, salvation on the cross. We have salvation by grace because of God who is rich in mercy. We have salvation for good works, for God's glory. God bless you.
