[Acts 2:41-42,47 KJV] “Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. [42] And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. [47] Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved”.
I believe that God wants to save our city, and I can’t imagine anybody going to hell. We can be part of God’s program to save this city, and add unto the church such as ought to be saved. The simple secrets to have this city turn to God and be added to our fellowship are;
- Believe the gospel
- Be baptised, and
- Continue steadfastly in our fellowship, doctrine, prayer, and breaking of bread.
The gospel is the power of God to save the world, and the preaching of the gospel is the dynamo that turns the wheels of salvation. It is the wisdom of God to save the world by the preaching of the gospel. This city will be saved if you believe the gospel. Many shall be added to the church by you merely believing the gospel. That is how the early became part of God’s program to save the city.
The anointing of the Holy Spirit is the next thing we need. You must strive for the Holy Spirit. In Acts 19, when apostle Paul found some disciples in Ephesus, his first question was, “have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed?” The baptism of the Holy Spirit is one of the most important experiences every man should have. When the world around you see the anointing on your life they will be saved.
Finally, nothing can save the world around us more than a changed life. When the people around you observe the change in your life and choices; as you continue in our fellowship and doctrine, prayer, and breaking of bread; they will have no option than to believe. What puts the world off the most is our hypocrisy. When we choose and live just like them, when the friends and family around us observe that we do not keep the fellowship and doctrine that we profess, they wonder why they should believe.
I pray that you will believe, be baptized, and continue steadfastly in fellowship and doctrine, prayer, and breaking bread. Nothing will stop us, this city shall be saved and added to us. Stay blessed!
I love you;
Noah Simpe Bediako
