Title of Message:  The World Without Christ

The sermon was delivered by Pastor Massoud Sadeghi to the Iranian Christian Church in the beautiful Chapel at the Cedar Park Church.  This is a summary (and I paraphrase) of the sermon. The sermon was translated to English for English-speaking members:

Welcome to Nejat Church. Welcome to your church.  Welcome guests.  

If today you are missing your joy and happiness in your life, I know Jesus can rebuild and recover your joy.  Last week we saw what a high price Jesus paid so that today you and I can rule over the world and have victory through his work.  Jesus paid for all of our sins in FULL.  It’s all paid off in FULL.

If we realize this fact, I know no one can put a blame on you.  No one can place judgment on you. Yes, we obtained eternal life and freedom from our sins freely, but a high price was paid for it by Jesus.

I’m glad to know that the Church is awake and the people in the world can hear and see the work of Jesus,  so they too can gain these rewards in Jesus.

Today we must talk about Jesus and his blood; expose Satan and his defeat so others can find the truth and the enternal life.  (Read Col 1:12-14)

If today some people do not accept Jesus Christ, I must warn them that a terrible future in Hell is awaiting them.  You, the believers have entered into the Kingdom of the Son of God.  Jesus is the King of this Kingdom.  This world must wake up and know Jesus Christ before it’s too late.  It’s too late if a person dies yet does not accept Jesus Christ as his or her savior; By then it’s too late.

(Read 2Cor 4:4) The King of this world is Satan who has blinded some people so they don’t discover and know Jesus.  In their houses, in the hearts of people where Jesus is not present, people are missing the intercessor,  they need a person to build the bridge between them and God, to wash their sins and to heal them.  That person is Jesus.

Satan must leave the Iranian’s homes.  Iranians must become free and enter into God’s Kingdom.  I want people to come out of Satan’s kingdom of darkness. I was people to come into God’s Kingdom through the Blood of Jesus Christ.

The good news is that Man can become a son of God and be free of Satan, through the work of Jesus.  Satan lies to you. He is a thief.  Satan wants to trick you; if Satan says that things are bad or wants to scare you, know that in fact the opposite is true as God has better plans in mind for you.  Satan is a thief and wants to steal.  Satan wants to steal God’s word from your heart.  Protect your hearts from Satan. 

God’s word is like seeds.  When it falls on a well-prepared ground, it grows and flourishes. When it falls on a hard ground, the birds (this is a symbol of Satan) pick the seeds, so nothing can grow.  Our hearts must be soft and accepting of God’s Word. 

Satan wants to pilage, damage and hurt you.  God is the spirit who is looking for the faithful and who saves the believer.  God has reserved the lake of fire and the absolute darkness for Satan.

(Read Matthew 25:)  Anyone who leaves this earth without Jesus will be judged, and will suffer. Anyone who believes in Jesus will receive no pain and no suffering, because Jesus paid the price of sin already.

So, pray for your family, friends and loved ones to come to know Jesus.  Satan has closed their eyes so they don’t see the Word of God.  But pray that your loved ones realize the danger ahead with Satan.  Pray that they open their eyes to see and know the Word of God.  Amen.
