Gotta Go... Gotta Save The World!

A radio disc jockey friend of mine has this peculiar fantasy, he would liken himself to a superhero. Whenever his daily radio show was done he would always end it by saying the words on air "Gotta Go, Gotta Go, Gotta Save The World." Over two thousand years ago somebody did save the world...from the sin that corrupts our souls. This genuine superhero's name is Jesus. You can't read His stories from a comic book but you can read loads of it compiled in one book called the Bible.







Seventeen years ago I read a headline article from the morning paper that went "Man Jumps To His Death" I saw the picture printed on the front page showing a man carrying his son and much to my disbelief it was a picture of a very close college buddy of mine with his son who happened to be my godson. After reading the very morbid tale of what drove my friend to commit suicide I began thinking... I was given an opportunity before to share the gospel to him but instead, I procrastinated. I was so devastated and the guilt that I felt was so compelling that it motivated me to start a crusade.







The goal was to share the gospel to everyone whom I considered to be my bestfriend, that way I would know that not only would I share the greatest joy that each of them would ever experience in their lifetime but to also have the assurance that their salvation is secured and that they would enjoy eternity in the presence of our Lord.







Each of us have the opportunity to partake of the blessing of God's saving grace through the death of His son and eventual resurrection by recieving Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior and then sharing the good news of His gospel to our loved ones and everyone else who are in need of a Savior.







Because I listened to His call for me to share the gospel to my best friends, Omie became a recipient of this message of hope. The thought of listening to God's call of sharing the good news to Omie at the time and seeing him grow in the Lord throughout his last days here on earth gives me the peace and the assurance of knowing that Omie is literally in a better place.







You to have the opportunity to do the same, so go ahead say these words with me..."Gotta Go, Gotta Save The World...for the glory of Jesus!"
