“When many people each do a little, together we can accomplish great feats for God.”
February 27, 2009
Dear People Power Partner,
I’m not a movie buff but I enjoy a good movie from time to time—especially ones based on true stories that reflect real life. I’m not a big fan of watching the Oscars either with all the Hollywood glamour, glory and glitz, but Sunday night I did watch.
What “grabbed” my attention wasn’t who won what awards but the fact that all these “famous” stars who thrill to the glory of their moment of fame, if they don’t know Jesus as their Savior, their glamour and glory isn’t worth a red cent in terms of eternity. Without Jesus they are eternally lost—forever. What a tragedy “for what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul” (Mark 8:36)?
Equally tragic is the fact that every other person in the entire world is also eternally lost if he or she doesn’t know Jesus as his or her personal Savior, no matter what their standing in life.
The good news is that you and I are in a unique position in today’s computerized world to be able to reach out and, together, reach mega thousands of people with the saving message of Jesus Christ—the only hope for lost mankind and our sin-sick world.
Alarming News
If you haven’t read Chuck Colson’s Tuesday’s Breakpoint on “Chilling Free Speech,” I urge you to do so (see his link below). As Colson points out, what is happening here in California today is absolutely alarming. The people who supported Proposition 8 (the California initiative banning same-sex “marriage”) are being targeted with all sorts of brutal harassment—including death threats. This is the same tactic that preceded Hitler’s taking over of Germany.
As noted earlier, a grass roots people power network had a mighty influence in helping to get President Obama elected. Today we urgently need a vastly different grass roots people power movement—one to spread the gospel message across the street, across the country and around the world; that is, a People Power for Jesus grass roots network.
So today I am asking you to do two things:
First, will you prayerfully seek to enlist your Christian friends to become People Power for Jesus partners to help reach thousands of people worldwide with the gospel? You can do this by sending them the People Power for Jesus website asking them to prayerfully consider joining with us to help spread the gospel worldwide.
And Second, please continue to forward suitable articles and copies of Daily Encounter to friends, contacts and families from the www.goodnewsfor.com/the_world website. ACTS articles are written to speak to the everyday issues of life that all people deal with from time to time. It is only as we reach people at their point of felt need do we have any hope of their paying attention to any message. This is the way Jesus always ministered to people; that is, he always met people at their point of felt and personal need. The Good News articles do the same.
Please see http://www.actsweb.org/people_power/tips.php for simple and effective ways to do this.
We now have 1,300+ People Power for Jesus network partners. If each one of us will reach out to only ten other people in the next few days, this will equal 13,000 more people will be reached. And please pray that from our 254,000+ Daily Encounter subscribers thousands more will join with us to make a mighty People Power for Jesus grass roots network to reach out around the world with the saving gospel of Jesus Christ.
Also, be sure to pray every day: “Dear God, I am available again today. Please use me to be ‘as Jesus’ in some way to every life I touch today.” As you do, may God richly bless, use, and reward you in his own abundant way.
Sincerely in Christ,
Richard (Dick ) Innes
