The crossover is how we describe crossing over from spiritual death to spiritual life. When we come to Jesus we are severed from darkness and are free to live in the newness of life. As sinners, we were missing the mark of what God originally designed us to be. The desires of the flesh are contrary to the desires of God. Only in Jesus can we live out our purpose.

Today on Basic Gospel, another stop on the trail of assurance—Revelation 3:5. Join us and learn that as a believer God will never blot your name out of the book of life.

Hebrews 6 gives us an anchor for our soul: "So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of his purpose, he guaranteed it with an oath, so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us." Hebrews 6:17, 18

In this crazy world we live in there's a lot of uncertainly and instability. However as believers we have a hope. Throughout the Scripture we read God's promises. But too often we see a trail of condemnation as we try to live up to the law. Only when we come to the grace of God poured out through Jesus Christ can we walk the trail of assurance in his finished work.

There's nothing as basic to the Gospel as the love of Jesus Christ demonstrated by his death on the cross. Paul put it this way, "God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 There are so many who claim to be a Christian but don't believe that Jesus is the only way to God. We need to take a stand upon the cross of Jesus Christ and recognize that it's a demonstration of God's love for us.

Nineteen years ago, on 9/11, a woman called the broadcast asking about salvation. We were able to share the good news of Jesus Christ with her. She responded by faith and immediately went from death to life. We call that the crossover. When we come to Christ, we cross over from spiritual death to spiritual life. John 5:24 describes it this way: ""Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life. ... They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life."

When we look out there into the world we see those items Paul wrote that love is not, don't we. So what has to happen to flip the switch? What takes someone from the way of the world to the way of the love?

We find the definition of love in 1 Corinthians 13. Paul uses fifteen actions statements to tell us of God's love for us. We see seven positive statements and eight negative statements. Let's focus on vs. 6... "[Love] does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out."

We all yearn for the love of God and we do all we can to earn it. But the love of God isn't something we can earn. 1 John 3:1 "See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are!" Let your faith be manifested in love.

A special Labor Day broadcast! The Word of God has a lot to say about work. Today we take a look at just a few passages that speak to work. The work of God is this - to believe in the One he has sent (John 6:29-30). Our work is simple faith in Jesus Christ. Paul had a labor of love to share the good news of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 2:8-9). He reminds us, "your labor in the Lord is not in vain." We are called to live by faith. As we do, we will see incredible things happen in and through our lives. We are God's workmanship and we have been created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance for us to do (Ephesians 2:8-9). As we live by faith in Jesus, the work we are called to do, we will see good works flowing in and through us. Where do these good works take place? Only in church? Only on mission fields? No, it's in everyday life! As Solomon said in Ecclesiastes 3:22 "I saw that there was nothing better for a person than to enjoy their work." We hope you enjoy this special edition of Basic Gospel!
