What will happen to those who never find Christ? What would you think the state of salvation is for someone who worships God, prays continually, and gives to the needy but does not know Christ? The world wants to know: “Are good people saved?” Because if good people are saved and I am a good person, then I do not need to give attention to Christ, His church, and the written Word. How should Christians respond? What does the Bible say? This lesson presents scriptures demonstrating the capability of each person to believe in one God and to seek and find Christ. If a person is able to find Christ, then God justly holds that one accountable for faith.

The Church that Abandoned Its First Love

Jesus revealed to the church at Ephesus that they left their first love. What was that love? On his third missionary journey, the apostle Paul came to Ephesus. Many great things happened there in the spread of the Gospel. In its beginning, the church became strong and grew (Acts 19). After Paul had traveled to Ephesus, Paul wrote to the church at Ephesus. Later, Peter wrote to Asia Minor in his general epistles. However, Jesus instructed Paul and then an angel to write to Ephesus about how they left their first love. They did not leave their first love by not opposing false teaching and false teachers. They did not leave their first love by not enduring persecution in Christ’s name. They did these things. They left their first love as they left their first works. How do Christians behave in the beginning? How do they love in the beginning? This study looks at when a congregation or an individual Christian might leave their first love.

This study introduces the influence of Isaiah upon the conversion of the Ethiopian treasurer bringing him into the Christian faith. Within Isaiah 53 is the Gospel including the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This prophetic prediction of God’s Suffering Servant is about 700 years before Jesus was born. Isaiah 53 has many uses for today’s Christian. This study will present seven uses for Isaiah 53 today. This Isaian passage proclaims, persuades, and stirs people with the Gospel of the Christ.

He Has Borne Our Griefs

Seven hundred years before Jesus, Isaiah revealed the Servant who was pierced for transgressions and crushed for the iniquities of all. The LORD laid on him the iniquity of all, because all like sheep have gone astray. People rejected and despised this Servant. Men hid their faces from Him. However, He healed others by His wounds. His appearance was marred beyond human semblance, and God exalted Him. These are ancient prophecies of the Christ, the Suffering Servant. Faith comes from hearing these words (Rom 10:16–17). This is the Gospel. This is the power of God unto salvation. This lesson urges the listener to be crucified with Christ and take the Gospel to heart.
