Just like there are three parts to an egg, there are three parts to salvation.

Number 1. “The Yoke!” I have been saved. Jesus said in John 5:24, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that hearth My Word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come in condemnation, but is passed from death to life.”

Number 2. “The Egg White” I am being saved. Paul says in Phil. 2:12-13, “…work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and do His good pleasure.” If you are truly a child of God, you are going to obey Him!’

Number 3. “The Egg Shell” I will be saved. When Jesus comes back as a thief in the night we will experience the final stage of salvation. Sin will no longer have power over us, and we will be with the Lord forever!

When I was a boy my mom made this comment! “Son, you may  not grow up  having much money, but you’ll always have your word, be a man of your word!” In other words when you tell someone you’re gonna do something, do it!

I’ve also heard this saying, “Promises are meant to be made and broken!” Some people believe that nonsense because their thinking is all wrong! Did you know that God promises us certain things? One thing He promises us is eternal life if we accept Jesus His Son!

The only kind of life that God offers is eternal life. If you lose it tomorrow or next week or next year, it isn’t eternal life that you have. It is some other kind of life, but not eternal life.

I John 2:25 says, “And this is the promise that He hath promised us, eternal life!”

Every week people flock to church’s and homes across America to study the Word of God. Back in the day we called it Sunday School. I can remember one of my Sunday School Teachers. She was excellent, she wasn’t boring and she most definitely kept our attention by the use of object lessons! 

I want to let you in on a secret. We have access to the greatest teacher of all time. This teacher knows all things, hears all things and sees all things. There’s nothing in this world He doesn’t know, hear, or see! His name is Jesus!

Right now, I’m having class time  with Him! You see, it’s good to have a Sunday School Teacher you highly respect, who can help you understand God’s Word, but the One who has written the Word wants to be your teacher not only on Sunday, but everyday. The Holy Spirit is the only one who can show you all things!

I John 2:20 says, “But ye have the unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things”

Aren’t you thankful for policemen, firemen, and ambulance drivers? When these men or women get a call from someone in distress they don’t fool around getting to a home or where an accident has taken place. There is an urgency for them to arrive on the scene because it might be a life or death situation.

Everyday Christians are involved with life or death situations! Some of the people you know are headed for destruction. They don’t know Jesus and if they were to die without Him they’d go to a place called hell!

This is why there needs to be an urgency on our part as Christians. We need to find out if people know the Lord or not, for He’s the only way for them to be healed and be saved!

I Peter 2:24, “He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed!”

The Bible says we need to confess our sins one to another. I have something to confess, I’ve had love affairs in the past, not with a woman but with myself. You see, I love me. There’s a song I’ve heard in the past and I don’t even know the name of it, but it certainly describes mankind!

It goes something like this, “I wanna talk about me, I wanna talk about I, I wanna talk number one oh my me my! What I think, what I like, what I know, what I want, what I see!” We’re  having a love affair and that love affair is with ourselves!

God’s children should not be that way. We should not be having a love affair with ourselves, our love affair should be with Jesus, for you see, that’s what salvation is!  I John 4:19 says, “We love Him, because He first loved us”FacebookTwitterLinkedInEmailShare

I’ve been a Christian for almost 40 years and I’m discovering everyday that I’m  learning something new about the Lord. Everyday I’m getting to know Him better.

How can you know Him better? The only way you can know Him is in the Word of God. That is where He is revealed. The word of God is like food and we must feast on it daily.

Some people think they can become super duper Christians if they attend one Bible Study Class a week. Let me say this, “that just ain’t gonna cut it!” For a man or woman to be all God wants them to be they must dine with the Lord continually!

If you truly want to  know Christ, you must live with Him in His Word as you go through the joys and hardships of this life!

Hello Friends,

I haven’t received the total number of decisions as of yet from last weeks visit in South Carolina. I can tell you the exact number of people who’ve  made professions of faith.

Are you ready for this? I will say, if this doesn’t light your shucks, you’re wood is soaking wet!

Pastor Alan Quigley told me that 110 people made a profession of faith! Now this is something to hoot and holler about!

Please pray for Pastor Alan and his staff as they follow up on all decisions. Pray they’ll be diligent in doing so. Pray that God will give them wisdom and keep them safe as they venture into new territory!

I thank you for praying for me, the ministry, and the souls that’s been saved and the lives that’s been changed.

Here, there, or in the air! Pastor Gene Bubba WrightFacebookTwitterLinkedInEmailShare

I hear believers talking about finding God’s will for their lives. I can tell you where to find it and how! Aren’t you excited? All you’ve got to do is look on the pages of scripture! Finding God’s will is simple, just open the Bible and read!

The will of God for believers is to do the will of God, and the will of God, first of all, is to love Him! This identifies a true believer. If we love God with all our heart, soul and mind everything else becomes secondary and this is where God wants us all to be.

Matthew 22:37,  Jesus said to Him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.”

I lived on a farm in Georgia as a young boy growing up. I learned how to work hard in the fields. One of our main crops was tobacco. I started attending church in my teens and I never heard the pastor talking about the dangers of smoking. I never heard him group smoking in with all the other sins he’d talk about!

I do remember seeing him along with some of the deacons stand outside after the services and light one up! Some may feel him smoking was wrong, while others would have no problem with it! In the same way some may feel that going to an X Rated movie is OK, while others say it’s wrong!

The question every Christian needs to ask themselves is this, “Is what I’m getting ready to do, say, see, or think pleasing to the Lord?’ You see, once we come to know Jesus we are to walk the way He walked, we are to talk the way He talked, and we are to act the way He acted!

I will say this, if you’re having a problem trying to decide whether somethings right or wrong, it’s probably wrong!

 I John 2:6 says, “He that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked!”

Have you ever doubted your salvation? It’s been a long time for me, but I have! As I look back I realize I doubted my salvation during times when I was disobedient to the Lord.

I John 2:3 says, “And hereby we do know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.” This is not talking about the Ten Commandments. The Ten Commandments were given to the unsaved!

In I Thessalonians there are twenty two commandments given to a child of God. Here are a few of them. Rejoice evermore – God wants you to be a happy Christian in all circumstances. Pray without ceasing – When you get off your knees, you are to still walk in a prayerful attitude. Quench not the Spirit – In other words, don’t say no to God!

These are just a few commandments the Lord has given to us as believers. By following them we can have the assurance in our hearts that we know Him.  You see, a sincere Christian does not do as he pleases, he does as Christ pleases! If you are doing as you please, you are living in darkness. Step out of the darkness and walk in the light!
