Gospel Message

But the very name Jesus means the saviour, the heavenly name, not the earthly name, not upon the earth, but from heaven itself, as you see in Matthew 1.21. Thou shalt call them Jesus, for he shall save people from their sins. That means one with power to forgive the sins of sinners. One with the power to remove the guilty stains of sinners.

One with the power to take away sins from nature and give us divine nature. One who gives victory over sin and temptation day by day. One who will one day make me immortal and perfect.

And that is why he was called by that name. Jesus, my son, thy sins be forgiven thee. Who can forgive? They could not understand who he was.

But the greatness of Lord Jesus Christ lies here. Tell me, any prophet of any country, where was these words? My child, my son, my daughter, thy sins be forgiven thee. But these words of Lord Jesus Christ reveals something of the greatness of him.

And ever since multitudes are hearing these words every day, every part of the world. My son, my daughter, my child, thy sins be forgiven thee. Now tell me please, have you ever heard these words? Ever these simple words, loving words, and they are here? Before my conversion, I never knew what Bible is.

I was so blind spiritually. Never heard about new words. But I heard these words.

My son, thy sins be forgiven thee. They were so clear. And they were so loving.

I can never forget them. And these words changed my life also. And changed me completely.

And changed me in a few seconds. At that time, I was living in every sin and vice. But by one small fragment, I began to see the greatness of my Savior.

Even though you may have the whole world wealth, that cannot bring you the freedom of sin. As God says in the last few Gospels, chapter 16, verse 26. What is a man's property if he should give the whole world and his own soul? What shall a man give in exchange for his soul? No amount of the wealth of the world can bring me the assurance that my sins are forgiven.

Even though I may give all my money to the poor, all my property to the poor, even that won't give me assurance. I may go anywhere. I may do anything.

But I will never get the assurance. And that's why you see on many faces the marks of fear and worry and anxiety. Now please tell me, are your sins forgiven? If so, when? And what did you do when your sins were forgiven? I am not asking you, are you a Christian? But the question is, are your sins forgiven? And who forgave them? And how many sins did he forgive you? How did he forgive you? What happened to you when he forgave you? Did you thank your heart full of gratitude, full of prayer, full of thanks, my Lord I adore Thee for forgiving me? Yes or no? Otherwise he will remain a blind spiritualist.

And dead also. Doesn't matter where you go and whatever you do. You want to make sure that your sins are forgiven.

There are some thieves. They are very very clever thieves. They look so simple.

You can never imagine they are pulling a thief's rope. They are so simple. But they are first class thieves.

Outwardly you will never suspect. And maybe that's your case also. You have deceived till today many people that you are a very good person.

Maybe your mother or your father, husband or wife, they think you are a very very good person. But you will never become a good idol of God. Until your sins are forgiven.

And no man can forgive you. Only the Lord Jesus Christ, the loving Saviour has power to forgive sins. Now please tell me.

Have you ever heard these words? My son, my daughter, my child, thy sins be forgiven thee. My son, my daughter, my child, thy sins be forgiven thee. And while your heart is filled with joy and wonder and thanksgiving, have you heard those words? And are you conscious of a divine person living in you? And is it different? If not, have this experience evening.

It is very simple. As you humble yourself. And confess your sins.

And feel sorry for them. And believe from the heart. The Lord Jesus Christ died in your stead for your sins.

The Lord Jesus Christ died in your stead for your sins. He did no sin. He died willingly.
