Are you ASHAMED of the Gospel of Christ? When last\nwhere you EMBOLDENED to make your FAITH by the Gospel of Christ KNOWN to all\nABOUT you. Still hiding from public view as Christ Disciple? A hidden Believer\nof the FAITH of God in Christ Jesus stead? Not willing to make known your\nRESOLVED to be an AMBASSADOR of and for Christ Jesus?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need not to be ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ\nfor its the ENABLING of God for human DIGNITY to be ACTUALISED in His divine\nPLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In all situations, am PROUDLY and EMBOLDENED to be\nChrist Jesus DISCIPLE and AMBASSADOR by the GOSPEL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For I am not ASHAMED of the GOSPEL of Christ: for it is the POWER of God unto SALVATION to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God REVEALED from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall LIVE by faith”<\/em> Romans 1:16-17.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For God hath not GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR; but of POWER, and of LOVE, and of a SOUND MIND. 8 Be not thou therefore ASHAMED of the TESTIMONY of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou PARTAKER of the AFFLICTIONS OF THE GOSPEL according to the power of God; 9 who hath SAVED us, and CALLED us with an HOLY CALLING, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, 10 but is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the GOSPEL: 11 whereunto I am appointed a PREACHER, and an APOSTLE, and a TEACHER of the Gentiles. 12 For the which cause I also SUFFER these things: NEVERTHELESS I AM NOT ASHAMED: for I know WHOM I HAVE BELIEVED, and am PERSUADED that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day”<\/em> 2 Timothy 1:7-12.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“But let none of you SUFFER as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men\u2019s matters. 16 Yet if any man SUFFER as a CHRISTIAN, let him not be ASHAMED; but let him GLORIFY God on this behalf. 17 For the time is come that JUDGMENT must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that OBEY not the GOSPEL of God?” <\/em>1 Peter 4:15-17.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For with the HEART man BELIEVETH unto RIGHTEOUSNESS; and with the MOUTH confession is MADE unto SALVATION. 11 For the scripture saith, WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH ON HIM SHALL NOT BE ASHAMED. 12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” <\/em>Romans 10:10-13.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
