(Romans 10:13-18) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent?
As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! But they have not all obeyed the gospel.
For Esaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report?
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.
Brothers and sisters, let us examine this scripture in the spirit of truth, and not in the popular opinions of your popular religious leaders, their hearsay, their second hand knowledge, and their second hand information.
Brothers and sisters, the word of God says, “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be SENT?”
Brothers and sisters, the problem with these words in this scripture is this, not all pastors and preachers are SENT by GOD, for the word of GOD says, “How shall they preach, except they be SENT?”
For no one man or woman can just preach or teach the word of GOD in the spirit of truth without knowing JESUS as the living word of GOD, the truth of GOD, the wisdom of GOD, and the revelation knowledge of GOD.
For just because you went to bible school, Rhema bible school, seminary school, and you have degrees in theology, religious studies, and mass communication skills, that does not mean you were sent by GOD or taught by GOD.
For all JESUS sheep know JESUS, and JESUS knows his sheep.
(John 10:13-16) JESUS SAYS, The hireling flees, because he is an hireling, and cares not for the sheep.
I am the good PASTOR, and I know my sheep, and my sheep know me.
As the Father knows me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
And other sheep I have, which are not of this sheepfold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one sheepfold, and one PASTOR.
(John 10:26-28) JESUS SAYS, But you do not believe me, because you are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
(John 6:44-45) JESUS SAYS, No man can come to me, except the Father which has sent me draws him to me: and I will raise him up at the last day.
It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that has heard, and has learned of the Father, comes unto me.
(Galatians 1:10-12) For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Remember, “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of GOD/JESUS.”
But what is the real word of GOD? I’m glad you asked.
(Revelation 19:13) And JESUS was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
(Hebrews 4:12) For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
(John 1:1-4) In the beginning was the Word/JESUS, and the Word/JESUS was with God, and the Word/JESUS was God. The same JESUS was in the beginning with God.
All things were made by JESUS; and without JESUS was not any thing made that was made.
In JESUS was life; and the life in JESUS was the light of men.
(John 6:63-64) JESUS SAYS, It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
But there are some of you that believe not.
For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
Remember, “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of GOD/JESUS.”
But what is the real word of GOD? Do you even know?
(Proverbs 14:6) A scorner seeks wisdom, and does not find it: but knowledge is easy unto him that understands.
