”Sent: Brandon, The Bay, and Beyond” - Pastor Erin Arruda

Sent--Brandon, the Bay and Beyond
Evangelist Leonard Ravenhill:
“Dear Believers, listen: The world is not waiting for a new definition of the Gospel, but for a new demonstration of the power of the Gospel.”

Have you been made new? Then you are that new demonstration of his power.

Romans 10:13
 And it’s true:
“Everyone who calls on the Lord’s name
    will experience new life.”
But how can people call on him for help if they’ve not yet believed? And how can they believe in one they’ve not yet heard of? And how can they hear the message of life if there is no one there to proclaim it? 15 And how can the message be proclaimed if messengers have yet to be sent? That’s why the Scriptures say:
How welcome is the arrival[g]
    of those proclaiming the joyful news of peace
    and of good things to come!

 2 Corinthians, “As God’s partners we beg you not to accept this marvelous gift of God’s kindness and then ignore it.”
