Pastor Ken Dew visited and preached at ENCS today
About "What's on God's Heart" he had much to say
On "The Divine Agenda" he did passionately speak
Into five core truths on the gospel he did peek
From Paul's letter to the Romans chapter 1, 14-16
"We are obligated to preach the gospel" is it seen
Doing good things of course we must try
But we must augment this by saying why
By explicitly linking Christianity to our action
From others, we can get the appropriate reaction
His life was transformed so indebted was Paul
The same thing must surely apply to us all
Knowledge of Christ brings responsibility
We must act on His truth continually
At First Corinthians 15 verses 3-5 we did then glance
The second point is "the gospel is of first importance"
From someone else the gospel we all did hear
It has the answers, so there is nothing to fear
And learning from Acts 26:26-29, Pastor did say
"We should speak it with confidence" every day
Paul spoke to Agrippa although his life was in danger
Remember that God's truth should not be a stranger
From 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 we learned some more
"God gave us the ministry of reconciliation" is point four
We can do this even if we are not in ministry full time
Not getting the message out to others is a real crime
Lastly, Pastor read from 2 Corinthians 5 verses 10 and 11
Point five is "knowing the fear of God", who lives in heaven
In the end, we will be held accountable for our life's action
Versus God's destiny for us, did we do it all or just a fraction?
In summary, we should all be moved to the message share
Taking the church to others, to show them that we do care
