*WHY ARE BELIEVERS NOT BOLD BOLD ENOUGH AGAINST FALSEHOOD*
*Prov 28:1(Amp)* The wicked (guilty, ungodly, bad person) flee when no man pursues them, *but the [uncompromisingly] righteous are bold as a lion.*
*Boldness today has been mistaken for pride. No!*
*Boldness is not arrogance—it is faith in action, grounded in God’s Word and our identity in Him.*
*The righteous have a fearless spirit because of their standing in Christ.*
*This misconception has rendered many vibrant and passionate leaders to become BEHIND THE SCENE TALKERS*
*Acts 4:29,31* “…grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word… And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, *and they spoke the word of God with boldness.*
The days are evil…. tempting, deceptive…. If you cannot stand in your conviction on the gospel in and out the pulpits, you have no stand. *You have wrong agendas that can repenser you hopeless.*
*A child speak boldly before parents, people because they have nothing to hide or gain. They are just who they are. So it ought to be with believers.*
Adam and Eve lived in complete openness before the Lord without fear, shame or guilt…. Consider Prov 28:1, Gen 2:25 and *Gen 3:10.*
*After the fall, fear and shame replaced confidence….* ehhhhh
*Did you know, we have been reconciled, restored and made righteous again? Are you convicted on this truth?*
*Why don’t you have confidence in yourself as concerns the gospel? Why are you timid to stand against false teachings, why?…* CHECK YOUR AGENDAS….
The gospel needs to be ministered in boldness and boldly living.
*Boldness springs from understanding the gospel as the powerful and life transforming message of grace*
Growing in the understanding of God’s work of grace will fuel your boldness.
*2 Corinthians 5:18* “Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ…”
*Hebrews 10:19* “Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus…”
*Understand that you have been approved. Jesus’s approval of you removes intimidation from people and circumstances.*
*Ps 118:6….* “the Lord is on my side, I will not fear. What can man do to me?”
*It is Jesus’s approval….. God being on your side and not man. When you want men to be on your side, you are doomed to be a compromiser, doom in fear, lost of confidence and looking guilty all the time.*
*Boldness is not arrogance…..*
*To be continued……..*
