Jesus came after us! And sent us to go after them!!!

“FOR THE SON OF MAN IS NOT COME TO DESTROY MEN’S LIVES, BUT TO SAVE THEM.” Luke 9:56

“Amen! So very honored to be part of this ministry! The Lord hears the groanings of the Prisoner. Psalm 102:20. He promises to hear their cries.” Karen Cochran

Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.” Isaiah 43:10-11

“The Lord has called us to ‘proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound’ Isaiah 61:1.” Karen Cochran

JESUS “DIED FOR ALL” (2 Corinthians 5:14-15)

“Lifting them up! Words of Jeffrey Dahmer: ‘I’ve since come to believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the true Creator of the heavens and the earth…and I have accepted Him as my Lord and Saviour, and I believe that I as well as everyone else will be accountable to Him. I’ve come to believe the Lord Jesus is truly God.’ After this interview many asked if there were any limits on God’s mercy considering how barbaric his crimes were. A pastor who led him to Jesus said ‘I don’t know of any sins too evil for Christ’s blood to wash away.’ Amen to that!” Karen Cochran

SAINTS, we continue to hunt down sinners who are presently in jail and drop a heavenly blessing on them. ALL of us have sinned and are fully guilty before a holy God (Romans 3). These men and women are no exception – and Jesus wants them saved. God is “NOT willing that any should perish” (2 Peter 3:9). So, several times weekly we are dropping books into cold hard hearts that are presently incarcerated.

“For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” John 3:17

Instead of getting upset, let’s evangelize! Jesus is the answer!

WHY did Jesus come?

“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10

“This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15

Are you a son of thunder or a son of mercy?

“But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” Matthew 9:13

Remember this?

“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; 7 That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:5-7

When we act like the sons of thunder, our immaturity, our lack of understanding as to why Jesus came, is uncovered.

“And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him. 53 And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem. 54 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? 55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. 56 FOR THE SON OF MAN IS NOT COME TO DESTROY MEN’S LIVES, BUT TO SAVE THEM. And they went to another village.” Luke 9:52-56

May God’s Holy Spirit and Word get the best of us – and mature us – to see things, to see the people He died for through His loving eyes.

Okay, many of the men and woman in jail currently whom we minister to, send the Scripture-rich ministry books to, are already born again and in need of growing in the grace of our LORD Jesus (2 Peter 3:18). They are in a type of heavenly bootcamp, right? Boom. Isaiah 55:11

Feel free to fuel our LORD’s mission. We are Team Jesus.

“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God” (1 Corinthians 3:9).

Recently a currently incarcerated young man received the Born Again book and another book from the ministry. Apparently this led to his being saved. His aunt Cassandra just sent this:

“My nephew we’ve been praying for has received salvation! He’s also asking for more of your books ! I’m so thankful & happy Jesus is working on him ! What a magnificent gift. As Jesus said Salvation is a gift purchased by the blood of the Lamb. This has been a long road for my mother and I, as we watched Satan steal, kill & destroy his life! We never gave up on him & keep planting seeds into his life stayed in faith & prayers for him , as Jesus Christ said one plants a seed, another waters it, but only God gives the increase! Jesus came to seek and save those who are lost ! He also said he leaves the 99 to go after the one lost sheep! The prodigal son! Etc. I can’t wait until he’s out of prison to give his testimony! Todd can he come on your podcast & give his testimony? I’m telling you it’s a magnificent one! Thank you Todd for all your love, prayers, & your ministry.  I’ll get the address today and text it to you ! You’re such a magnificent blessing to My family! Forever blessed and grateful that Jesus placed you in our lives! I have the best spiritual family on the planet!

Think about this: It’s the witness of Christ dwelling in His body, His people, as they administer His Word in His love, that leads lost souls to Jesus, right? That how you got saved? Probably. This is how God has brought most of His people into His kingdom. Isn’t this just like it happened with Phillip and the Ethiopian eunuch? (Acts 8)

Here’s the point: All lost souls are in the dark and therefore most will not pick up the Bible and start reading it, right? True. Well, they can’t understand it even if they do read it because it’s spiritually discerned, understood by those who are born again of the Author of the Bible (1 Corinthians 2:14).

So, after the witness of Christ’s saints is given to and erupts in the life of a sinner, they turn to the LORD and Jesus saves them, and now the Holy Spirit lives in that now saint and leads them to read the Word to grow in Christ.

Your witness is so very important beloved of God. He wants to use you to reach the lost lives.

Father, in Jesus’ holy name, please set my life apart and use me for Your eternal glory. In Jesus’ name, amen LORD.
