Brothers and Sisters in Christ:

There are many different controversies raging in the world today.

But instead of wringing my hands, I thought I would just show you what Jesus said about a few controversial topics.

God's design
“But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.” —Mark 10:6

God’s judgment
“But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.” —Luke 17:29

God’s grace
“And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.” —Matthew 11:23

“But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.” —Luke 9:55-56

“But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” —Matthew 9:13

We “…all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). And we all got saved the same way, by faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 3:25). Let’s give everyone that same opportunity and hand out gospel tracts to the unsaved while we still can.

Yours for the lost,

In Christ Jesus, and for His service,
