Gog and Magog in the Bible
In the book of Ezekiel, chapter 39:1-3 (NKJV), the Lord God of Israel declares directly to the leader of the invading masses, “I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal,” and then He says “I will turn you back, drive you on, and take you up the north parts and bring you against the mountains of Israel … you and all your troops and the peoples who are with you.” Some seem to believe this could refer to modern Day Russia as well as a few of her allies.
This large, invading force, the totality of their defeat and the vast cemetery for the invaders, will become a great testimony to the glory of Israel’s God (v. 13).
This huge burial place will become known as the Valley of Hamon Gog (the hordes of Gog) and is noted in verse 11 as being “east of the sea.”
In Pastor Jack Hayford’s footnote commentary for this chapter in the Spirit-Filled Life Bible, he identifies three ways interpreters have explained this invasion and drastic turn of events.
He says some interpret this as…
No. 1. an end-times battle fought with ancient weapons, which are then literally burned;
No. 2. using ancient imagery to describe a future battle, which would use modern weaponry of the times; or
No. 3. symbolically portraying the dynamics of spiritual warfare.
Most scholars feel that according to Ezekiel’s prophecy, Gog will be the leader of a great army that attacks the land of Israel, which is “peaceful and unsuspecting” at the time (Ezekiel 38:11). Gog is described as “of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal” (Ezekiel 38:2–3).
When will Ezekiel’s battle of Gog and Magog occur?
There are a couple of theories…
• Before the tribulation begins. This view points to the fact that, after the battle, the people of Israel will
According to Ezekiel, Magog will not win. God will intervene to preserve Israel. “There shall be a great earthquake” (Ezekiel 38:19), “every man’s sword will be against his brother” (verse 21), and God “will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones and burning sulfur on [Gog] and on his troops and on the many nations with him” (verse 22). The result is that the nations will see God’s greatness and holiness (verse 23).
Whatever your viewpoint, Ezekiel 39 explains that following the dramatic conclusion to this failed invasion of tiny Israel and the seven-month-burial process of the invaders there will be a seven-year “clean-up” operation (vv. 11-16), where Israel will “cleanse the land” by burning the weapons which fell from the hands of the vast allied armies (v. 9).
Historically speaking, Magog was a grandson of Noah (Genesis 10:2). The descendants of Magog settled to the far north of Israel, likely in Europe and northern Asia (Ezekiel 38:2). Magog seems to be used to refer to "northern barbarians" in general, but likely also has a connection to Magog the person. The people of Magog are described as skilled warriors (Ezekiel 38:15; 39:3-9).
Gog and Magog appear in Ezekiel 38—39 and in Revelation 20:7–8. While these two passages use the same names, a close study of Scripture clearly demonstrates they do not refer to the same people and events. The events are separated by at least 1,000 years. In Ezekiel’s prophecy, Gog will be the leader of a great army that attacks the land of Israel, which is “peaceful and unsuspecting” at the time (Ezekiel 38:11). Gog is described as “of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal” (Ezekiel 38:2–3). When will Ezekiel’s battle of Gog and Magog occur? There are a couple of theories:
• Before the tribulation begins. This view points to the fact that, after the battle, the people of Israel will be burning the enemy’s weapons for seven years and spend over seven months burying the dead (Ezekiel 39:9–10, 12–16). That length of time most likely requires the battle to be fought before the tribulation, and possibly even before the rapture of the church.
• During the first part of the seven-year tribulation. This view hinges on the fact that Israel is at peace when the attack begins (Ezekiel 38:8, 11). The security Israel enjoys is assumed to be the result of Israel’s covenant with the Antichrist at the beginning of the tribulation, Daniel’s 70th Week (Daniel 9:27a).
The book of Revelation uses Ezekiel’s prophecy about Magog to portray a final end-times attack on the nation of Israel (Revelation 20:8-9). The result of this battle is that all are destroyed, and Satan will find his final place in the lake of fire (Revelation 20:10).
It is important to recognize that the Gog and Magog of Ezekiel 38-39 is quite different from the one in Revelation 20:7-8. Below are some of the more obvious reasons why these refer to different people and battles.
1. In the battle of Ezekiel 38-39, the armies come primarily from the north and involve only a few nations of the earth (Ezekiel 38:6, 15; 39:2). The battle in Revelation 20:7-9 will involve all nations, so armies will come from all directions, not just from the north.
2. There is no mention of Satan in the context of Ezekiel 38-39. In Revelation 20:7 the context clearly places the battle at the end of the millennium with Satan as the primary character.
3. Ezekiel 39:11–12 states that the dead will be buried for seven months. There would be no need to bury the dead if the battle in Ezekiel 38—39 is the one described in Revelation 20:8–9, for immediately following Revelation 20:8–9 is the Great White Throne judgment (20:11–15) and then the present heaven and earth are destroyed, replaced by a new heaven and earth (Revelation 21:1). There obviously will be a need to bury the dead if the battle takes place before or in the early part of the tribulation, for the land of Israel will be occupied for another 1,000 years, the length of the millennial kingdom (Revelation 20:4–6).
4. The battle in Ezekiel 38-39 is used by God to bring Israel back to Him (Ezekiel 39:21-29). In Revelation 20, Israel has been faithful to God for 1,000 years (the millennial kingdom). Those in Revelation 20:7-10 who are rebellious are destroyed without any more opportunity for repentance.
With Russia back in the news in a big way, many people are wondering if recent events in eastern Europe have anything to do with end-times prophecy—and, if so, how? Much of the discussion has to do with an ancient prophecy from Ezekiel: “The word of the Lord came to me: ‘Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshek and Tubal; prophesy against him and say: “This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against you, Gog, chief prince of Meshek and Tubal”’” (Ezekiel 38:1–3). The identities of “Gog,” “Magog,” “Meshek,” and “Tubal” are the key to fully understanding the prophecy.
Gog is a person. Whoever Gog is, he is from the land of Magog and is the leader of Tubal and Meshek (some translations add “Rosh” to the list) and a confederacy of other nations: Persia, Cush, Put, Gomer, and Beth Togarmah (Ezekiel 38:5–6). And, whoever he is, he will have plans to “attack a peaceful and unsuspecting people,” viz., Israel (verses 11, 14, and 18). But, regardless of Gog’s plans, the Lord God is against him and will defeat him soundly (Ezekiel 38:4, 19–23; 39:3–5).
Magog is a land “in the far north,” from Israel’s point of view (Ezekiel 38:15; 39:2). Most Bible commentators interpret “Magog” as Russia—and, indeed, Russia is straight north of Israel, all the way up to the Arctic Circle. According to this view, “Rosh” is a reference to Russia, “Meshek” is either Moscow or the people north of the Black Sea (the area of southern Russia and Ukraine), and “Tubal,” which is always listed with Meshek in Scripture, is identified as a city in Siberia or an area in central Turkey.
Others see “Magog” as a general term used in Ezekiel’s day to identify barbarians living near the Black and Caspian Seas. Regardless of the exact locations of Magog, Tubal, and Meshek, there is no doubt that the general area includes portions of Russia and the former Soviet Union, and possibly some Arab countries.
So, yes, the Bible does mention Russia, although not by that name, in connection with the end times. Ezekiel 38—39 definitely refer to a nation coming from northern Asia to attack Israel. After the Cold War, Russia lost its superpower status, making the fulfillment of Ezekiel’s prophecy seem unlikely in some people’s eyes. However, recent events have shown that Russia is gaining strength, and many believe that the invasion of Ukraine is just a first step in Russia’s plan to restore its dominance in that hemisphere. It is also interesting to note that, in the Soviet era, Moscow was solidly aligned with several Muslim countries in opposition to Israel. Since the breakup of the Soviet Union, Russia has continued to make overtures to the Muslim world.
According to the Bible, there will come a time when Russia, in alliance with several other countries, will amass a huge army against Israel, with a view to plunder the Jews’ land. The nations aligned with Russia for this military endeavor are Persia (modern-day Iran), Put (modern-day Libya), Cush (modern-day Sudan), Gomer (part of modern-day Turkey), and Beth Togarmah (Armenia). Most of these nations are currently militant Islamic states with an express hatred of Israel. Ezekiel says that, when the aggressors move against Israel, a few other nations (“Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish”) will remonstrate, as will “all her villages”—possibly colonies (Ezekiel 38:13). Sheba and Dedan are associated with areas of northern Africa. Tarshish could be a reference to Spain (which colonized much of South America), Britain (which colonized the United States), or somewhere in eastern Africa. The objections to Magog’s aggression will fall on deaf ears, however, and the invasion will continue.
Some commentators believe this war is one of the events leading up to beginning of the tribulation. Others believe it will occur close to the midpoint of the tribulation, since Israel will be “dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates” (Ezekiel 38:11)—in other words, Israel will feel secure at that time, possibly because of the covenant they have signed with the Antichrist (Daniel 9:27). Either way, this battle is distinct from the Battle of Armageddon, which occurs at the end of the tribulation.
God promises to destroy Gog’s army: “I will execute judgment on him with plague and bloodshed; I will pour down torrents of rain, hailstones and burning sulfur on him and on his troops and on the many nations with him” (Ezekiel 38:22). The bodies of the fallen army of Magog will be buried, but it will take over seven months to complete the macabre task (Ezekiel 39:12, 14). This supernatural judgment will have the effect of preserving Israel and turning many hearts to God: “And so I will show my greatness and my holiness, and I will make myself known in the sight of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord” (Ezekiel 38:23). Many will be saved during the tribulation (Revelation 7), and the fulfillment of Ezekiel 38—39 will be one means by which God will bring people to a knowledge of Himself.
There is much we do not know for certain about Ezekiel’s prophecy, including the timing of these events. However, it is clear that Russia will be involved and will in fact lead an end-times league of nations to seize Israel’s land. The prophet Ezekiel comforts Israel in much the same way as Moses had centuries ago: “The LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory” (Deuteronomy 20:4).

Today we gather to explore the question of what drives a Christian to do the work of the Kingdom.
As followers of Christ, we are called to be His hands and feet on this earth, but what motivates us to carry out this divine mission? Let's turn to the Word of God to find answers.
Scripture #1: Matthew 28:19-20
"Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.
Explanation:
Here, Jesus Himself commissions us to make disciples of all nations. Our love for Christ and obedience to His command drive us to share the gospel.
Scripture #2: 1 Corinthians 15:58
"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."
Explanation:
Our assurance that our labor in the Lord is not in vain motivates us. We serve a God of eternal significance.
Scripture #3: Galatians 6:9
"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart."
Explanation:
Perseverance is driven by the promise that we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Scripture #4: 2 Corinthians 5:14
"For the love of Christ compels us because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died."
Explanation:
The love of Christ compels us to share His message of salvation with others.
Examples from Scripture:
1. Saul's Transformation - Acts 9:1-19
Saul, a persecutor of Christians, had a dramatic encounter with the risen Christ on the road to Damascus. This encounter transformed him into the Apostle Paul, a passionate missionary for the Kingdom.
2. Zacchaeus' Conversion - Luke 19:1-10
Zacchaeus, a notorious tax collector, encountered Jesus, and his life was dramatically changed. He repented and promised to repay those he had cheated.
3. The Woman at the Well - John 4:1-42
A Samaritan woman met Jesus at a well, and her encounter with Him led to a powerful transformation in her life. She became a witness to her community, leading many to the Lord.
Saul's transformation is a profound example of how encountering God can dramatically change a person's life. This transformation is described in detail in the book of Acts, specifically in Acts 9:1-19. Let's break down Saul's transformation step by step, with relevant scriptures.
1. Saul's Persecution of Christians:
- Scripture: Acts 9:1-2 (NKJV)
"Then Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, so that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem."
Saul, at this point, was a fervent persecutor of Christians. He actively sought out followers of Jesus to arrest and bring them to Jerusalem for trial.
2. The Encounter on the Road to Damascus:
- Scripture: Acts 9:3-5
"As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?' And he said, 'Who are You, Lord?' Then the Lord said, 'I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'"
Saul experienced a blinding light from heaven and heard the voice of Jesus Himself. This encounter left him physically blinded and spiritually shaken.
3. Saul's Conversion and Surrender:
- Scripture: Acts 9:6
"So he, trembling and astonished, said, 'Lord, what do You want me to do?' Then the Lord said to him, 'Arise and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.'"
In response to Jesus' call, Saul surrendered and asked what he should do next. He was instructed to go to Damascus, where further guidance would be provided.
4. Ananias' Role in Saul's Transformation:
- Scripture: Acts 9:10-17
"Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and to him the Lord said in a vision, 'Ananias.' And he said, 'Here I am, Lord.' So the Lord said to him, 'Arise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for one called Saul of Tarsus, for behold, he is praying.'"
Ananias, instructed by the Lord in a vision, went to Saul, prayed for him, and restored his sight. Saul received the Holy Spirit and was baptized.
5. Saul's Transformation into Paul:
- Scripture: Acts 9:18-19
"Immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he received his sight at once; and he arose and was baptized. So when he had received food, he was strengthened. Then Saul spent some days with the disciples at Damascus."
After receiving his sight, Saul was baptized and became a follower of Christ. He went on to become the Apostle Paul, one of the most influential figures in the early Christian Church, and a passionate missionary who spread the Gospel to the Gentiles.
Saul's transformation from a zealous persecutor of Christians to a devoted follower of Christ illustrates the profound impact of a personal encounter with Jesus. This transformation demonstrates God's ability to change even the most hardened hearts and turn them into powerful instruments for His Kingdom.
10 scriptures from the Christian Bible that emphasize transformation when becoming a believer:
1. Romans 12:2 (NKJV)
"And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."
2. 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV)
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new."
3. Ephesians 4:22-24 (NKJV)
"that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness."
4. Galatians 2:20 (NKJV)
"I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."
5. Colossians 3:9-10 (NKJV)
"Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds, and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him."
6. Titus 3:5 (NKJV)
"not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit."
7. 2 Corinthians 3:18 (NKJV)
"But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord."
8. 1 Peter 1:23 (NKJV)
"having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever."
9. Ephesians 2:10 (NKJV)
"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them."
10. 2 Corinthians 4:16 (NKJV)
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day."
These scriptures highlight the transformative power of faith in Christ, emphasizing the renewal of the mind and spirit, becoming a new creation, and being conformed to the image of Christ through the work of the Holy Spirit.

Today we gather to explore a crucial aspect of our Christian calling – the responsibility to be "soul winners." We will delve into the Word of God, using the New King James Version, to understand why this mission is close to God's heart, why Jesus Himself was the ultimate soul winner, and how this calling remains relevant in this late hour.
Scripture #1: Matthew 4:19 (NKJV)
"Then He said to them, 'Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.'"
Commentary: In these words, Jesus issued a clear call to His disciples, promising to transform them into "fishers of men." This signifies a divine transformation, where Christ equips His followers to seek and save the lost.
Scripture #2: Luke 19:10 (NKJV)
"For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost."
Commentary: Jesus' very mission on Earth was to seek and save the lost. He set the example for us as the ultimate soul winner. His heart was filled with compassion for those who were spiritually adrift.
Scripture #3: Proverbs 11:30 (NKJV)
"The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise."
Commentary: The pursuit of souls is a mark of wisdom. It reflects a deep understanding of the eternal significance of leading others to Christ. Such wisdom is the fruit of righteousness.
Scripture #4: Mark 16:15 (NKJV)
"And He said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.'"
Commentary: The Great Commission is a foundational command for all believers. We are called not only to share the Gospel but to reach every corner of the world, making disciples of all nations.
Scripture #5: 1 Peter 3:15 (NKJV)
"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear."
Commentary: As soul winners, we must always be prepared to share the hope we have in Christ. Our readiness to give a defense of our faith is an integral part of leading others to salvation.
Scripture #6: 2 Corinthians 5:20 (NKJV)
"Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God."
Commentary: We are ambassadors representing Christ in this world. God Himself pleads through us to reconcile others to Himself. This highlights the importance of our role in soul winning.
Scripture #7: Romans 10:13-15 (NKJV)
"For 'whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.' How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?"
Commentary: This passage emphasizes the necessity of proclaiming the Gospel. People cannot believe in Christ unless they hear about Him. We are called to be those preachers who bring the message of salvation.
Scripture #8: John 17:14-16 (NKJV)
"I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world."
Commentary: As Christians, we are in the world but not of the world. We are called to be distinct from the values and desires of this world, showing others a different way, the way of Christ.
Scripture #9: James 5:19-20 (NKJV)
"Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins."
Commentary: Our role in soul winning includes helping those who have strayed from the truth to return to God. Such efforts lead to the salvation of souls and the forgiveness of sins.
Scripture #10: Ezekiel 3:18 (NKJV)
"When I say to the wicked, 'You shall surely die,' and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, that same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at your hand."
This sobering passage reminds us of the responsibility we carry as soul winners. We are accountable for sharing the message of salvation, and failing to do so has eternal consequences.
In conclusion, dear brothers and sisters, soul winning is at the core of our Christian calling. Jesus set the example as the ultimate soul winner, and God's heart longs for His church to continue this mission. We are in the world but not of the world, and our role as ambassadors for Christ is to lead others to salvation, reconciling them to God. May we embrace this divine calling with passion and dedication, understanding that through our efforts, souls are saved, and God's kingdom is expanded for His glory.

Israel and Syria, particularly the city of Damascus, have been mentioned in Biblical prophecy. Scholars have interpreted some of these prophecies to be relevant to end times, although interpretations can vary.
Isaiah 17:1 (NKJV)
"Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, And it will be a ruinous heap."
*Commentary:* The prophecy in Isaiah speaks of the destruction of Damascus, Syria's capital. Damascus is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, and although it has seen conflicts, it has not yet become a "ruinous heap." Many scholars believe this prophecy is yet to be fully fulfilled and could be indicative of end-time events.
Ezekiel 38-39 (Gog and Magog Prophecy)
While these chapters don't mention Syria directly, they describe a coalition of nations that come against Israel in the last days. Many interpreters believe that some of the regions and peoples mentioned may encompass modern-day Syria.
*Ezekiel 38:2-5 (NKJV)*:
"Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him, and say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords. Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet."
*Commentary:* The coalition described here includes nations and territories surrounding Israel. The exact identity of "Gog" and "Magog" is debated, but some scholars believe this could point towards regions in modern-day Turkey, Russia, and possibly parts of Syria. Regardless of exact identities, the coalition represents an alliance that will be in conflict with Israel in what some interpret as end-time events.
Zechariah 12:2-3 (NKJV)
"Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples, when they lay siege against Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it."
*Commentary:* This prophecy signifies that in the end times, Jerusalem will become the focal point of global contention, with nations surrounding Israel (which could include Syria) laying siege to it. However, God promises to protect Jerusalem and make it burdensome to those who oppose it.
In interpreting these prophecies, it's essential to approach them with humility and discernment. Many details are complex and can be understood in multiple ways. The primary focus for believers is to recognize God's sovereign hand over history and His unwavering commitment to His promises.
In a world where darkness seems to prevail, a parallel and brighter narrative is also unfolding. It is the narrative of the Church of Jesus Christ. The more intense the darkness, the more radiant His church becomes. Today, we dive into the notion of two simultaneous revolutions happening in our world.
1. 2 Timothy 3:1-2 (NKJV)
"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy."
*Commentary:* These verses depict the decay of morality in the end times. As the world focuses on self-obsession and materialism, the spiritual fabric unravels.
2. 2 Peter 3:3 (NKJV)
"knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts."
*Commentary:* This Scripture reveals that there will be those who mock Christians and the hope they carry. Yet, in the face of mockery, the church remains resilient.
3. 2 Timothy 4:4 (NKJV)
"and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables."
*Commentary:* Many will be deceived, preferring fabricated tales over the truth of God. Yet, it is a reminder for the church to uphold the truth with integrity.
4. Joel 2:28 (NKJV)
"And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions."
*Commentary:* Even in the midst of chaos, God's Spirit will move mightily. People from all walks of life will experience His touch, seeing visions and dreaming dreams.
5. Matthew 24:14 (NKJV)
"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."
*Commentary:* The remnant will rise, proclaiming the Gospel far and wide. The Kingdom's good news will touch every corner of the earth.
6. John 17:16 (NKJV)
"They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world."
*Commentary:* As Christians, we are in the world but not of it. Our identity is anchored in Christ, and our mission is heavenly.
7. Isaiah 61:1 (NKJV)
"The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, Because the LORD has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound."
*Commentary:* God equips His people, anointing them to be a beacon of hope. It's a testament to His plan to position and prepare us for Kingdom work.
8. Galatians 6:9 (NKJV)
"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart."
*Commentary:* Though challenges may arise, we find strength in Jesus Christ. His Spirit empowers us, ensuring that our labor in Him is not in vain.
9. Zechariah 12:3 (NKJV)
"And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it."
*Commentary:* Events in Israel are pivotal in end-time prophecies. While adversaries might rally against Jerusalem, God's plan for His chosen city is unshakeable.
10. Romans 8:31 (NKJV)
"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?"
*Commentary:* Despite the enemy's strategies, God's plan will always prevail. With God on our side, we are more than conquerors.
We are witnesses to two revolutions: one that seems to drag the world into chaos and another that illuminates the world with Christ's light. As believers, our call is to be steadfast, shine brightly, and proclaim the Kingdom's good news. For the victory belongs to God, and His church will prevail!

👉 New Book: www.PastorToddBook.com
👉 Website: www.PastorTodd.org
👉 Church website: www.RRCNashville.org
Today we gather to explore a crucial aspect of our Christian calling – the responsibility to be "soul winners." We will delve into the Word of God, using the New King James Version, to understand why this mission is close to God's heart, why Jesus Himself was the ultimate soul winner, and how this calling remains relevant in this late hour.
Scripture #1: Matthew 4:19 (NKJV)
"Then He said to them, 'Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.'"
Commentary: In these words, Jesus issued a clear call to His disciples, promising to transform them into "fishers of men." This signifies a divine transformation, where Christ equips His followers to seek and save the lost.
Scripture #2: Luke 19:10 (NKJV)
"For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost."
Commentary: Jesus' very mission on Earth was to seek and save the lost. He set the example for us as the ultimate soul winner. His heart was filled with compassion for those who were spiritually adrift.
Scripture #3: Proverbs 11:30 (NKJV)
"The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise."
Commentary: The pursuit of souls is a mark of wisdom. It reflects a deep understanding of the eternal significance of leading others to Christ. Such wisdom is the fruit of righteousness.
Scripture #4: Mark 16:15 (NKJV)
"And He said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.'"
Commentary: The Great Commission is a foundational command for all believers. We are called not only to share the Gospel but to reach every corner of the world, making disciples of all nations.
Scripture #5: 1 Peter 3:15 (NKJV)
"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear."
Commentary: As soul winners, we must always be prepared to share the hope we have in Christ. Our readiness to give a defense of our faith is an integral part of leading others to salvation.
Scripture #6: 2 Corinthians 5:20 (NKJV)
"Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God."
Commentary: We are ambassadors representing Christ in this world. God Himself pleads through us to reconcile others to Himself. This highlights the importance of our role in soul winning.
Scripture #7: Romans 10:13-15 (NKJV)
"For 'whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.' How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?"
Commentary: This passage emphasizes the necessity of proclaiming the Gospel. People cannot believe in Christ unless they hear about Him. We are called to be those preachers who bring the message of salvation.
Scripture #8: John 17:14-16 (NKJV)
"I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world."
Commentary: As Christians, we are in the world but not of the world. We are called to be distinct from the values and desires of this world, showing others a different way, the way of Christ.
Scripture #9: James 5:19-20 (NKJV)
"Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins."
Commentary: Our role in soul winning includes helping those who have strayed from the truth to return to God. Such efforts lead to the salvation of souls and the forgiveness of sins.
Scripture #10: Ezekiel 3:18 (NKJV)
"When I say to the wicked, 'You shall surely die,' and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, that same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at your hand."
This sobering passage reminds us of the responsibility we carry as soul winners. We are accountable for sharing the message of salvation, and failing to do so has eternal consequences.
In conclusion, dear brothers and sisters, soul winning is at the core of our Christian calling. Jesus set the example as the ultimate soul winner, and God's heart longs for His church to continue this mission. We are in the world but not of the world, and our role as ambassadors for Christ is to lead others to salvation, reconciling them to God. May we embrace this divine calling with passion and dedication, understanding that through our efforts, souls are saved, and God's kingdom is expanded for His glory.

🙏 Todd Coconato Radio Show • Why Should We Win Souls? 🙏
Website: www.PastorTodd.org
To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give
Church: www.RRCNashville.org
Book: www.PastorToddBook.com
1. Because God Commands It
Soulwinning is not an option. It is not a spiritual gift. It is not a church growth program. It is a clear, unequivocal, unavoidable command of God.
2. Because There Is a Hell
Psalm 9:17 still says,“The wicked shall be turned into Hell and all the nations that forget God.”Revelation 21:8 still says those without Christ will have their part in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone.
Many years ago when I was an assistant pastor, two sisters, Rita and Penny Shire, attended a youth activity. The older sister, Rita, trusted Christ. I went to visit Penny, a seventh grader, in her home the next week. Her mother allowed me to visit with her and did not interfere as I presented the Gospel to her. When it came time, however, for Penny to make a decision for Christ, her mother interrupted and said, “She’s not old enough.” I explained that I wasn’t asking Penny to be baptized or join the church. I told Mrs. Shire that I had been saved as a young boy at the age of four. Nonetheless, Mrs. Shire adamantly insisted, “She’s not old enough.” I asked the mother if it would be permissible for Penny to get saved when she came to church sometime. Strangely, she agreed. Penny came many times after that. I always gave an invitation and always looked her way. She never raised her hand.
I had been at First Baptist of Bridgeport just a few weeks when one of the former youth workers from the church where I had been an assistant pastor, called and said, “Penny Shire has been in a terrible accident.” A young man driving a Chevrolet Vega had deliberately pulled in front of the truck that Penny and her father were riding in (he left a suicide note). The gas tank on the truck exploded. Mr. Shire was killed instantly and Penny was in a coma at Hurley Hospital in Flint, horribly burned. I drove up to see her when I heard the news. I would not have recognized her had I not been told who was in the bed.
Knowing that sometimes, people can hear when they are in a coma, I gave her the Gospel one more time. I explained that she did not need to be in church to be saved and did not need to be able to speak aloud; that she could tell Christ from her heart that she was trusting Him as her Saviour. I asked if she could wiggle a finger or raise an eyebrow. She made no sign. To this day I do not know whether or not she is in Heaven or in Hell. I hope that sometime she trusted Christ. I would hate to be her mother at the judgment seat. But then all of us deal with people every day who will spend eternity in Heaven or in Hell. We know the answer. We must tell them.
3. Because We Know How To Escape Hell
Imagine a man having a cure for cancer and keeping the news to himself. Imagine seeing someone about to be run over by a car and not trying to warn him. How much worse it is for those of us who know the only escape from eternal damnation to keep it from those desperately in need of this truth.
4. Because Soulwinning Is the Decent Thing To Do
1 Corinthians 15:34 says:“Awake to righteousness and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.”I once heard of a preacher who, along with his family, befriended an elderly lady. She became a kind of a grandmother to his children and was included in family gatherings. After a while, their friendship had advanced so far that he felt awkward about giving her the Gospel; wished he had done it sooner, but did not know exactly how to broach the subject. Years went by. One day the preacher was under such deep conviction that he went over to the lady’s house and clearly explained the Gospel. She was very quiet when he ended. She said, “Are you telling me that you believe that if I died right now, I’d go to Hell because I’ve never trusted Christ?”
“Yes ma’am,” he replied. “That’s what the Bible says.”
“And you’ve believed this all the time you’ve known me?” He again replied in the affirmative. “Get out of my house,” she said. “You’re not my friend. I don’t ever want to see you again.”
I hate to say it, but the lady is right. It is not friendship or any other kind of decent behavior to withhold the Gospel from those who need it.
5. Because There Is a Heaven
What a wonderful blessing it will be to be reunited with loved ones for eternity. What a privilege it will be for us to see those living forever in Heaven, to whom we have given the Gospel of Christ.
6. Because It Glorifies God
John 15:8 says:“Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.”There are those who say that our prime motivation is not to win people to Christ but to glorify God. I do not disagree with them, but I must remind them that the Bible clearly says God is glorified when we bring forth much fruit.
7. Because It Encourages Believers
When I win people to Christ, bring them to church, or share their testimonies with others, believers are encouraged and uplifted. Iron sharpens iron and my testimony encourages others to do the same.
8. Because It Perpetuates Truth for the Next Generation
The Lord Jesus tells us that believers are like wheat and unbelievers are like tares. Wheat must be planted every season. It never regenerates itself. Weeds grow automatically. It takes nothing for wrong to prevail and evil to predominate. It takes great effort for righteousness to be perpetuated.
9. Because It Demonstrates the Power of God
I spent my last year of high school at Bob Jones Academy in order to get out of school a year early. One December evening, I went with the Academy soulwinning bus to Spartanburg, South Carolina. It was a cold night. No one seemed to want to listen to us present the Gospel to them. My partner, Oddver Cuevas, ran out of tracts and said, “I’m going into this drugstore to warm up.” I had a few more tracts, which I passed out and then joined him in the drugstore. I discovered that he had engaged the proprietor of the drugstore, a man named George Vassey, in conversation. George Vassey was twisting Oddver into a theological pretzel.
Since I was raised in a preacher’s home and considered my knowledge of the Bible at age 16 to be almost limitless, I violated a rule of two-by-two soulwinning and interrupted the conversation. Sure enough, in no time at all, there were two theological pretzels twisting on the drugstore floor. George Vassey knew verses I had never heard of. He quoted things from the book of Mormon, the Koran and other sources with which I was totally unfamiliar. I left discouraged. I thought as a young man, “I’m not going to do this again until I know more about it. I’m going to study every religion; have an answer to every question; and then I’ll go back out.”
I went home for Christmas vacation, came back and did not go soulwinning the next Friday evening. When the bus returned, I heard Oddver Cuevas running down the hall, hollering my name. He burst into my room and said, “George Vassey got saved! I went by the drugstore and he said as a result of our visit, he trusted Christ. He has stopped selling dirty magazines in his drugstore, and he says he wants to take part of the building that’s not being used and turn it into a rescue mission!” Why did George Vassey get saved? Because of our theological expertise? Because of our unanswerable arguments? Because of our persuasive speech? No. George Vassey got saved because the Spirit of God worked in his heart.
10. Because It Is a Timeless Principle
Even a casual reading of the Word of God will convince you that it has always been right for people who know God to tell people who don’t know God about God. Remember, it is an Old Testament verse that says,“He that winneth souls is wise.”
11. Because We Must Face Jesus at the Judgment Seat of Christ
“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, whether it be good or bad.Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord,we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.”2 Corinthians 5:10–11 (emphasis mine)
12. Because Our Hands Will Be Stained with the Blood of the Lost We Don’t Tell
“When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him no warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.”Ezekiel 3:18

Israel and Syria, particularly the city of Damascus, have been mentioned in Biblical prophecy. Scholars have interpreted some of these prophecies to be relevant to end times, although interpretations can vary.
Isaiah 17:1 (NKJV)
"Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, And it will be a ruinous heap."
*Commentary:* The prophecy in Isaiah speaks of the destruction of Damascus, Syria's capital. Damascus is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, and although it has seen conflicts, it has not yet become a "ruinous heap." Many scholars believe this prophecy is yet to be fully fulfilled and could be indicative of end-time events.
Ezekiel 38-39 (Gog and Magog Prophecy)
While these chapters don't mention Syria directly, they describe a coalition of nations that come against Israel in the last days. Many interpreters believe that some of the regions and peoples mentioned may encompass modern-day Syria.
*Ezekiel 38:2-5 (NKJV)*:
"Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him, and say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords. Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet."
*Commentary:* The coalition described here includes nations and territories surrounding Israel. The exact identity of "Gog" and "Magog" is debated, but some scholars believe this could point towards regions in modern-day Turkey, Russia, and possibly parts of Syria. Regardless of exact identities, the coalition represents an alliance that will be in conflict with Israel in what some interpret as end-time events.
Zechariah 12:2-3 (NKJV)
"Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of drunkenness to all the surrounding peoples, when they lay siege against Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall happen in that day that I will make Jerusalem a very heavy stone for all peoples; all who would heave it away will surely be cut in pieces, though all nations of the earth are gathered against it."
*Commentary:* This prophecy signifies that in the end times, Jerusalem will become the focal point of global contention, with nations surrounding Israel (which could include Syria) laying siege to it. However, God promises to protect Jerusalem and make it burdensome to those who oppose it.
In interpreting these prophecies, it's essential to approach them with humility and discernment. Many details are complex and can be understood in multiple ways. The primary focus for believers is to recognize God's sovereign hand over history and His unwavering commitment to His promises.
In a world where darkness seems to prevail, a parallel and brighter narrative is also unfolding. It is the narrative of the Church of Jesus Christ.

*Commentary:* These verses depict the decay of morality in the end times. As the world focuses on self-obsession and materialism, the spiritual fabric unravels.
2. 2 Peter 3:3 (NKJV)
"knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts."
*Commentary:* This Scripture reveals that there will be those who mock Christians and the hope they carry. Yet, in the face of mockery, the church remains resilient.

*Commentary:* Many will be deceived, preferring fabricated tales over the truth of God. Yet, it is a reminder for the church to uphold the truth with integrity.
4. Joel 2:28 (NKJV)

*Commentary:* Even in the midst of chaos, God's Spirit will move mightily. People from all walks of life will experience His touch, seeing visions and dreaming dreams.
5. Matthew 24:14 (NKJV)
"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."
*Commentary:* The remnant will rise, proclaiming the Gospel far and wide. The Kingdom's good news will touch every corner of the earth.

*Commentary:* Despite the enemy's strategies, God's plan will always prevail. With God on our side, we are more than conquerors.
We are witnesses to two revolutions: one that seems to drag the world into chaos and another that illuminates the world with Christ's light. As believers, our call is to be steadfast, shine brightly, and proclaim the Kingdom's good news. For the victory belongs to God, and His church will prevail!

Remnant Replay 🙏 Sunday Service • Foundations of the Christian Faith 🙏
👉 To Give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give
👉 New Book: www.PastorToddBook.com
👉 Website: www.PastorTodd.org
👉 Church website: www.RRCNashville.org
Today, we embark on an exploration of the foundational tenets of our Christian faith as depicted in the Holy Scriptures.
1. The Authority and Inspiration of the Holy Scriptures
2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NKJV):
> “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
The Apostle Paul emphasizes the divine authority of the Scriptures. Every word in the Bible comes from God, serving as a guide for our beliefs and actions, ensuring we remain grounded in the truth.
---
2. The Nature of God
*Deuteronomy 6:4 (NKJV):
> “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one!”
This cornerstone scripture, often referred to as the Shema, stresses the oneness and uniqueness of God. Throughout history, God's singular nature has been at the heart of Christian belief, setting it apart from polytheistic beliefs.
---
3. The Deity and Humanity of Christ
John 1:1, 14 (NKJV):
> “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
Context:
John proclaims the profound mystery of Jesus: fully divine as the Word of God, yet fully human, incarnated to dwell among us. This duality is a cornerstone, affirming Christ as both God and man.
---
4. The Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ
1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (NKJV)
> “For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.”
Paul underscores the essential belief in Jesus' sacrificial death and triumphant resurrection. It's through this act of love and power that believers are offered salvation and eternal life.
---
5. Salvation by Grace through Faith
Ephesians 2:8-9 (NKJV):
> “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.”
Paul elucidates the grace of God, which is the unmerited favor bestowed upon us. Our salvation isn't earned by deeds but received through faith in Christ.
---
6. The Return of Jesus Christ
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (NKJV):
> “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.”
Paul reminds believers of the blessed hope: the return of Christ. This event signifies the culmination of human history and the beginning of eternity with God.---
The foundations of our faith are firmly rooted in the Holy Scriptures. As we continue our journey, may we cling to these truths, be fortified by them, and allow them to guide our daily lives.
Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock." - Matthew 7:24 (NKJV)

Remnant Replay 🙏 Friday Service @ The Remnant • The Mystery of the Body of Christ 🙏
🙏 Friday Service @ The Remnant • The Mystery of the Body of Christ: Walking in the Fullness of God 🙏
👉 To Give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give
👉 New Book: www.PastorToddBook.com
👉 Website: www.PastorTodd.org
👉 Church website: www.RRCNashville.org
Today, we gather to delve into the profound mystery that the Apostle Paul unveiled in his letters concerning the Body of Christ, especially as it pertains to the last days. Let's begin by turning to Ephesians 3:4-6 (NKJV):
"When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit: that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel."
Here, Paul speaks of a mystery revealed to him by the Holy Spirit—the mystery of the unity of believers from all nations into one Body of Christ. This unity is the very heart of our faith. In 1 Corinthians 12:12-13 (NKJV), Paul further emphasizes this truth:
"For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into one Spirit."
We are that body, dear friends, and Christ is the head. In Colossians 1:18 (NKJV), we read, "And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence."
Now, how do we walk in the fullness of God? The answer lies in the blood shed on the cross of Calvary. In Colossians 1:19-20 (NKJV), Paul continues:
"For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross."
Through Christ's sacrifice on the cross, we find reconciliation and forgiveness. His blood washes away our sins, making us worthy to be members of His Body. Ephesians 1:7 (NKJV) reminds us: "In Him, we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace."
Walking in the fullness of God means embracing our role in the Body of Christ, allowing His love and forgiveness to flow through us to the world. Let us remember Romans 12:4-5 (NKJV): "For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another."
In conclusion, my dear brothers and sisters, let us embrace the mystery of the Body of Christ, acknowledging Jesus as our head. Through His shed blood on the cross, we receive forgiveness and are empowered to walk in the fullness of God's grace and love. May this truth guide our lives and be a shining light to a world in need.

Today, we embark on an exploration of the foundational tenets of our Christian faith as depicted in the Holy Scriptures.
1. The Authority and Inspiration of the Holy Scriptures
2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NKJV):
> “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
The Apostle Paul emphasizes the divine authority of the Scriptures. Every word in the Bible comes from God, serving as a guide for our beliefs and actions, ensuring we remain grounded in the truth.
---
2. The Nature of God
*Deuteronomy 6:4 (NKJV):
> “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one!”
This cornerstone scripture, often referred to as the Shema, stresses the oneness and uniqueness of God. Throughout history, God's singular nature has been at the heart of Christian belief, setting it apart from polytheistic beliefs.
---
3. The Deity and Humanity of Christ
John 1:1, 14 (NKJV):
> “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God... And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
Context:
John proclaims the profound mystery of Jesus: fully divine as the Word of God, yet fully human, incarnated to dwell among us. This duality is a cornerstone, affirming Christ as both God and man.
---
4. The Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ
1 Corinthians 15:3-4 (NKJV)
> “For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.”
Paul underscores the essential belief in Jesus' sacrificial death and triumphant resurrection. It's through this act of love and power that believers are offered salvation and eternal life.
---
5. Salvation by Grace through Faith
Ephesians 2:8-9 (NKJV):
> “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.”
Paul elucidates the grace of God, which is the unmerited favor bestowed upon us. Our salvation isn't earned by deeds but received through faith in Christ.
---
6. The Return of Jesus Christ
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (NKJV):
> “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.”
Paul reminds believers of the blessed hope: the return of Christ. This event signifies the culmination of human history and the beginning of eternity with God.---
The foundations of our faith are firmly rooted in the Holy Scriptures. As we continue our journey, may we cling to these truths, be fortified by them, and allow them to guide our daily lives.
Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock." - Matthew 7:24 (NKJV)

🙏 Todd Coconato 🎤 Radio Show • What Is Sin? 🙏
👉 To Give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give
👉 New Book: www.PastorToddBook.com
👉 Website: www.PastorTodd.org
👉 Church website: www.RRCNashville.org
Sin is described in the Bible as a transgression of the law of God (1 John 3:4) and rebellion against God (Deuteronomy 9:7; Joshua 1:18).
Sin had its beginning with Lucifer, probably the most beautiful and powerful of the angels. Not content with his position, he desired to be higher than God, and that was his downfall, the beginning of sin (Isaiah 14:12-15). Renamed Satan, he brought sin to the human race in the Garden of Eden, where he tempted Adam and Eve with the same enticement, “you shall be like God.”
Genesis 3 describes Adam and Eve’s rebellion against God and against His command. Since that time, sin has been passed down through all the generations of mankind and we, Adam’s descendants, have inherited sin from him. Romans 5:12 tells us that through Adam sin entered the world, and so death was passed on to all men because “the wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23).
Through Adam, the inherent inclination to sin entered the human race, and human beings became sinners by nature. When Adam sinned, his inner nature was transformed by his sin of rebellion, bringing to him spiritual death and depravity that would be passed on to all who came after him.
We are sinners because we sin and we sin because we are sinners. This passed-on depravity is known as inherited sin. Just as we inherit physical characteristics from our parents, we inherit our sinful natures from Adam. King David lamented this condition of fallen human nature in Psalm 51:5: “Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.”
Another type of sin is known as imputed sin. Imputed sin is the result of our having been credited with the guilt of Adam’s sin (Romans 5:18). To impute is “to take something that belongs to someone and credit it to another’s account,” and imputed sin is Adam’s guilt attributed to or credited to us. All human beings are counted as having sinned in Adam and thus deserving the same punishment for sin as Adam. After Adam's sin, everyone was subject to death, even before the Mosaic Law was given, because of imputed sin, which affects our standing before God.
God used the principle of imputation to benefit mankind when He imputed the sin of believers to the account of Jesus Christ, who paid the penalty for that sin—death—on the cross. Imputing our sin to Jesus, God treated Him as if He were a sinner, though He was not, and had Him die for the sins of the entire world (1 John 2:2). It is important to understand that sin was imputed to Him, but He did not inherit it from Adam.
He bore the penalty for sin, but He never became a sinner. His pure and perfect nature was untouched by sin. He was treated as though He were guilty of all the sins ever committed by the human race, even though He committed none. God then imputed the righteousness of Christ to believers and credited our accounts with His righteousness, just as He had credited our sins to Christ’s account (2 Corinthians 5:21).
A third type of sin is personal sin, that which is committed every day by human beings. Because we have inherited a sinful nature from Adam, we commit individual, personal sins, everything from seemingly innocent untruths to murder. Those who have not placed their faith in Jesus Christ must pay the penalty for these personal sins, as well as inherited and imputed sins. However, believers have been freed from the eternal penalty of sin—hell and spiritual death. We now also have the power to resist sinning.
Now we can choose whether or not to commit personal sins because we have the power of the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.
When we do sin, the Spirit convicts us (Romans 8:9-11). Once we confess our personal sins to God and ask forgiveness for them we repent) we are restored to perfect fellowship and communion with Him. “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).
We are three times condemned due to inherited sin, imputed sin, and personal sin. The only just penalty for this sin is death (Romans 6:23), not just physical death but eternal death (Revelation 20:11-15).
Thankfully, inherited sin, imputed sin, and personal sin have all been crucified on the cross of Jesus, and now by faith in Jesus Christ as the Savior “we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace” (Ephesians 1:7).
It is important to do all we can to live in a holy and consecrated manner and turn away from repetitive sin.

Today, we gather to delve into the profound mystery that the Apostle Paul unveiled in his letters concerning the Body of Christ, especially as it pertains to the last days. Let's begin by turning to Ephesians 3:4-6 (NKJV):
"When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit: that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel."
Here, Paul speaks of a mystery revealed to him by the Holy Spirit—the mystery of the unity of believers from all nations into one Body of Christ. This unity is the very heart of our faith. In 1 Corinthians 12:12-13 (NKJV), Paul further emphasizes this truth:
"For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into one Spirit."
We are that body, dear friends, and Christ is the head. In Colossians 1:18 (NKJV), we read, "And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence."
Now, how do we walk in the fullness of God? The answer lies in the blood shed on the cross of Calvary. In Colossians 1:19-20 (NKJV), Paul continues:
"For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross."
Through Christ's sacrifice on the cross, we find reconciliation and forgiveness. His blood washes away our sins, making us worthy to be members of His Body. Ephesians 1:7 (NKJV) reminds us: "In Him, we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace."
Walking in the fullness of God means embracing our role in the Body of Christ, allowing His love and forgiveness to flow through us to the world. Let us remember Romans 12:4-5 (NKJV): "For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another."
In conclusion, my dear brothers and sisters, let us embrace the mystery of the Body of Christ, acknowledging Jesus as our head. Through His shed blood on the cross, we receive forgiveness and are empowered to walk in the fullness of God's grace and love. May this truth guide our lives and be a shining light to a world in need.

The concept of being "grafted into the vine" extends an invitation of spiritual nourishment and unity in Christ. In Romans 11:11-31, Paul intricately weaves a picture of how God's redemptive plan transcends the boundaries of Jew and Gentile, showcasing His immeasurable mercy and grace.
The beauty of the "grafting" process is that it signifies unity, shared sustenance, and growth. God's new covenant demonstrates that He is not exclusive but inclusive, wanting all to come to the knowledge of the truth, whether Jew or Gentile. As believers, recognizing this plan implores us to embrace our role in this divine tapestry with humility and gratitude, acknowledging the vastness of God's mercy and His redemptive plan for all of humanity.
