THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: We Get To-OCT 4 2026

There is a world of difference between waking up thinking, “I have to serve the Lord,” and waking up realizing, “I get to serve the Lord!” Remember who Jesus Christ is, what He paid to redeem you, and where you would be without His mercy. Then consider that He has given you a place in His work. We get to open the King James Bible and teach its truths. We get to carry the gospel into a prison cell, put a Bible into an outstretched hand, support a missionary, and tell a lost sinner how to be saved. What a privilege! Paul remembered what he had been before his salvation, and he thanked Christ for allowing him to preach the gospel. Paul considered it an honour to "spend and be spent" for Jesus Christ, do you? “And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;” 1 Timothy 1:12 (KJB) Serving the Lord Jesus Christ will cost you something. There will be long hours, personal sacrifice, opposition, and days when your body is tired and the results are hard to see. Paul knew all of that, yet he rejoiced in his service because he understood its value. Think about that prisoner reaching through the bars for a Bible you help send him. Through your willing participation, he can receive the words that tell him how to have forgiveness of sins and eternal life in Jesus Christ. Think about the child learning the Scriptures, the missionary preaching in a distant village, and the discouraged believer strengthened by a faithful teacher. These are opportunities worth giving ourselves to. We get to spend our brief time on this earth doing work with eternal value, and the Lord has promised that our labour here matters. You have free will, you have liberty, you don't have to serve the Lord...but you get to.
