    Does God Really Have a Plan to Reach the Whole World?

    Does God really have a plan to reach the whole world with the gospel? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens a brand new series titled "God's Plan for the Evangelization of the World," drawing from Matthew 28:16-20, Mark 16:15-16, Romans 1:16, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, and John 3:16, all from the King James Version. You might be asking... Why does it matter whether evangelism follows God's plan or man's plan? What exactly is the gospel, and where can I find it clearly explained in Scripture? Is the command to "go and preach" still meant for Christians today? What happens to souls who never hear the gospel? Key points from this devotion: - The Great Commission is a divine command, not a suggestion, and it applies to every believer today - The gospel — Christ's death, burial, and resurrection — is God's power unto salvation for everyone who believes - God's love extends to every person on earth; no one is excluded from the offer of salvation - Generations have died without hearing the gospel because Christians have been slow to obey - Today He is your Savior — do not let Him become your judge If this devotion encouraged you, please like, leave a comment, share this video, and subscribe so you never miss a word from the Word. #WordsFromTheWord #GoodNewsBaptistChurch #KJV #BibleDevotion #ChristianLiving Stay connected with GNBC: 🌐 Website: www.gnbcnetwork.org CHAPTERS: 0:00 Opening and Welcome 0:49 Hymn: So Little Time 1:22 Scripture Reading Matthew 28 and Mark 16 2:35 God's Plan for World Evangelism 6:37 The Plan Belongs to God Alone 7:07 God's Love Extends to Everyone 10:48 Closing Appeal and Next Episode Preview

    Do you truly long for God's intimate fellowship, or has your spiritual thirst quietly faded? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens Psalm 63 in the KJV and leads us into a powerful reflection on what it means to passionately pursue God with every part of who we are.

    Did Jesus Really Die in Your Place?

    Did Jesus really die in your place? In this Words From The Word daily devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster opens the Scriptures to show us something that should stop us in our tracks — the Good Shepherd became our substitute. Drawing from 1 Peter 2:24, Isaiah 53:7, John 3:18, John 10:11, and Psalms 103:10 in the KJV, Pastor Webster walks us through one of the most powerful truths in all of Scripture. You might be asking: Why didn't Jesus defend Himself when they mocked and abused Him? What does it mean that He bore our sins in His own body? How can a just God let guilty sinners go free? What does it mean to be condemned already? Key points from this devotion: - Jesus is our submissive shepherd — He had the power to stop it all but chose not to - He is our silent lamb — Isaiah 53:7 foretold He would not open His mouth - He is our substitutionary shepherd — He took the punishment we deserved - Without Christ, every person stands condemned — John 3:18 - He did not deal with us according to our sins — Psalms 103:10 If this devotion blessed you, please like, leave a comment, and share it with someone who needs to hear this today.

    Is Jesus Really a Sinless, Submissive Shepherd?

    Is Jesus really a sinless, submissive shepherd — and what does that mean for you today? In this devotion from Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster opens the KJV Scriptures to show us the kind of shepherd Jesus truly is — one without a single spot of sin, and one who willingly submitted to suffering so that you and I could be saved. Drawing from Luke 23, 1 Peter 1:19, Isaiah 6:5, Luke 5:8, Revelation 1:17, and 1 Peter 2:23, Pastor Webster walks us through testimony after testimony — from a dying thief, a Roman centurion, the apostle Peter, and the prophet Isaiah — all pointing to one undeniable truth: Jesus is the lamb without blemish and without spot. You might be asking... - Why does it matter that Jesus was sinless? - What does it mean that He stayed silent when He could have defended Himself? - How should I respond when I truly see Jesus for who He is? - Can a sinful person really be loved and saved by a holy God? Key points from this devotion: - Multiple witnesses confirm Jesus was completely without sin - Standing before a holy God reveals who we truly are - Jesus did not retaliate — His silence was willing submission to God's will - His sinlessness qualified Him as the perfect sacrifice for your sin - He is still your shepherd today — sinless, submissive, and loving If this devotion blessed you, please like, comment, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.
