Enlightening Stories About Jesus

Always Witness And Tell Everyone About Jesus

We Don't Want Nobody Witnessing For Jesus

A Story About Four Church Members Named

Somebody Everybody Anybody And Nobody

     Fred Somebody, Thomas Everybody, Susan Anybody, and Joe Nobody were neighbors. They were not good examples of christians. All four belonged to the same church. Everybody went fishing on Sunday or stayed home to visit with friends. Anybody wanted to attend but was afraid Somebody wouldn't speak to him. So guess who went to church. Nobody. 

     Nobody was the only decent one of the four. Nobody did the visitation. Nobody worked on the church building. Once the church needed a Sunday school teacher. Everybody thought Anybody would do it and Anybody thought Somebody would do it. And you know who did it; That's exactly right. Nobody.

     It happened that a fifth neighbor (an unbeliever) moved into the area. Everybody thought Somebody should try to win him to Jesus. Anybody could have made an effort. And you probably know who finally won him to Jesus. Nobody. 

Remember each of us is personally responsible for God's work

If we leave God's work to Somebody Everybody or Anybody Nobody will do it

Let's all work for Jesus and win souls until Jesus returns

READ THE QUOTES BELOW ABOUT TELLING EVERYONE ABOUT JESUS

Most people spend four years in college preparing for a career that might last 50 years

Shouldn't we all be willing to take 5 minutes to consider where we will spend eternity

Decide now to get saved; Repent, confess Jesus to be your God

and believe Jesus died for you on the cross was buried and rose again

The biggest gamble in the world is to say that there is no hell

     Did you know that some new translated bibles totally remove the word hell from the old testament. Do not read these phony bibles because hell is a real place. Only read a KJV 1611 true bible. Jesus told a true story about a rich man named Dives and a poor beggar named Lazarus. Dives would not give a crumb to Lazarus. Dives and Lazarus both died the same time. Lazarus was taken by angels to Abraham's bosom with Jesus and peace. Dives found himself in hell. Hell is a real place. Dives could not escape hell because a gulf separated hell from paradise. And Abraham told Dives that he could not get a drop of water because he didn't give Lazarus a crumb. Remember you reap what you sow. If you are kind, forgiving, and friendly, people will be kind, forgiving, and friendly to you. If you are mean, grumpy, and unforgiving, people will be mean, grumpy, and unforgiving to you.

     Friends everywhere now is the time to get saved while you are alive before death. There is no second chance in purgatory to get saved after anyone leaves this earth. This is why 2 Corinthians 6:2 says I have heard thee in a time accepted and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold now is the accepted time; behold now is the day of salvation. This is why we all need to witness and tell everyone about our Lord Jesus and salvation.

The church that does not evangelize will fossilize

Jesus didn't commit the gospel to an advertising agency
Jesus commissioned disciples to personally witness Jesus everywhere

Note the blessed quote below from Missionary Martyr Jim Elliot

No man is a fool who gives what he can not keep to gain what he can not lose

What does it profit me if I gain the entire world and lose my soul

It's better to bless the poor and receive treasure in heaven that lasts forever

I went out to find a friend and couldn't find one anywhere

I went out to be a friend and friends were everywhere

Jesus said we must show ourselves friendly to make friends (Proverbs 18:24)

A Story About Thomas Dewitt Talmage And The Importance Of Prayer

     Pictured above we see a great man of God named Thomas Dewitt Talmage who had a blessed praying grandmother. This grandmother in 1761 had three rebellious children. One night the three children told their mother they wanted to drink beer and dance all night. Momma said she would kneel by her bed and pray all night that the three children would get saved. 

     At 2 AM in the morning the girl found her mom still praying when she returned home. The girl kneeled down by her mom and got gloriously saved. She told her mom that the two boys almost died that night and were outside in the barn. When the mother saw the two boys in the barn, the boys thanked momma for praying for them and they both got gloriously saved.

     Thy youngest boy was so happy about his salvation, that he witnessed Jesus to his girlfriend. Eventually his girlfriend got saved and married this youngest boy. This new couple was blessed to have 12 children that all got saved and taught about our Lord Jesus. And Thomas Dewitt Talmage was the youngest 12th child. 

     Now think about this; If grandmomma didn't pray all night for her three children, Thomas Dewitt Talmage would not have been born and become a preacher. Because of grandmomma's prayers, Thomas Dewitt Talmage got saved and wrote sermons in 1500 newspapers that were seen by 20 million people that got saved in the 1800s. 

     Thomas Dewitt Talmage's grandma did not see the 20 million souls that her grandson helped saved. Grandma didn't even realize that her prayer for her children would allow 20 million sinners to be able to get saved and live eternally in peace in heaven. But when we all get to heaven, this grandma will be honored by these 20 million souls who will thank her for praying for Thomas Dewitt Talmage's dad so they could get saved by her grandson. 

     Like this grandma, keep praying for lost sinners everywhere to get saved. You might not see the results of your prayers on this earth, but in heaven multitudes will thank you for saving them from the eternal torments of hell so they can enjoy peace forevermore with Jesus in heaven. An unknown Sunday school teacher was responsible for saving a man named DL Moody. Then DL Moody became one of the greatest preachers in the 1800s that led millions to salvation with our Lord Jesus. This unknown Sunday school teacher named Ed Kimball (unknown to the world and not listed in Wikipedia) will be rewarded and honored in heaven by all the millions of souls that DL Moody led to salvation. 

A True Story About Mount Pilatus

Where Pontius Pilate Was Buried

     Did you know that a mountain in Switzerland is named after Pontius Pilate? Pontius Pilate was a Roman governor or prefect (a regional governor for Rome) of Judaea from AD 26-36. He washed his hands when sentencing Jesus Christ to be crucified. He also set the rebel leader Barabbas free. 

     Centuries later, christianized Rome said that it was unacceptable to have Pilate's dead body buried in the same city as the Apostle Peter. So the christians in Rome took Pilates' dead body and threw it into the Tiber river in Rome. Pilate's dead body caused the waters of the Tiber river to become so troubled that the christians moved Pilate's dead body to the Rhone river which also became troubled.

     Because the Tiber and Rhone rivers were so troubled by Pilate's body, the christians decided to take Pilate's dead body and bury it on the top of a high mountain in Switzerland named after him called Mount Pilatus. The local people that live in villages around Mount Pilatus blame a tiny lake surrounding Mount Pilatus for the terrible storms in the area. Devastating thunderstorms occur as soon as ripples appear in this tiny lake around Mount Pilatus. 

     People say that the restless ghost of Pontius Pilate creates the ripples in this tiny lake around Mount Pilatus that causes terrible storms. People around Mount Pilatus say that every Good Friday the ghost of Pontius Pilate rises to wash the blood of Jesus from his hands in this tiny lake around Mount Pilatus. Another legend says that Mount Pilatus looks like the belly of a large man (Pilate) lying on his back. Look closely at the above picture to see the large belly of a man (Pilate) lying on his back with his arms folded by his head. Therefore this mountain is named after Pontius Pilate.

     Also of note, Mount Pilatus is a large massif (defined as a compact group of mountains separate from other mountains) in central Switzerland. It overlooks the city of Lucerne and offers an excellent view of Lake Lucerne. The mountain is pocketed with many natural and man made caves. It is a fortress with many hidden gun emplacements and fortified weather stations all of which are still in service.

TO ALL BIBLE DOUBTERS

YES A MAN CAN LIVE AFTER BEING SWALLOWED BY A WHALE

IN 1891 JAMES BARTLEY LIKE JONAH LIVED

AFTER BEING SWALLOWED BY A WHALE

     In 1891, James Bartley (1870-1909), a sailor, was whale hunting and a sperm whale got the best of him and swallowed him up. Days later after his friends killed the whale, while they were skinning the whale, they noticed that the linings in the intestines of the whale were moving. When they opened up the intestines of the whale, out came James Bartley. Initially Bartley was delirious but eventually recovered..

     Bartley said that after he realized that he was inside the whale's stomach, he noticed that he could still breathe and live. This proves that the bible is true and that Jonah could survive after being in the belly of a whale for three day and three nights. Friends just believe everything in the bible even when it doesn't make any sense. Be like little children and accept the bible to be true. The bible is our road map and if we follow its directions our lives will be blessed. Yes our Lord Jesus can create a whale large enough to swallow Jonah and deliver Jonah safely to Nineveh to preach repentance to save 120000 lost sinners.

     I pray in Jesus name that this little bible study blesses multitudes all over this earth with great peace and joy.

Storytime With Brother Bob

A BLESSED WOMAN'S BEAUTY RECIPE

Here's the prescription

Truth for the lips

Praise for the voice

Pity for the eyes

Charity for the hands

Uprightness for the figure

Love for the heart

This prescription can be filled without expense

and the supply will be increased with continued use

Proverbs 18:22

Whoso findeth a wife (this blessed woman) 

findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord

BUT BEWARE OF EVIL WOMEN LIKE DELILAH

DON'T FALL ASLEEP ON THE KNEES OF A WHORE

When Samson (a very strong man) lost his strength 

Delilah was the first person to afflict him

Judges 16:19 says

And she (Delilah) made him (Samson) sleep upon her knees;

and she called for a man, and she caused him to shave off the seven locks of his head;

and she (Delilah) began to afflict him, and his strength went from him.

She wined him, she dined him, she bind him,

she blind him, and then she grind him

He was so weak 

that a whore gave him a whooping

His old hen was the first one to give him a peck

HOW EVE BLESSED ADAM

     One day in the garden of Eden Adam told God, "I'm lonely and want some company." God replied, "OK Adam I"ll give you a woman." Adam replied, "What's a woman?" God said, "She'll cook for you, she'll clean for you, have your babies, make you happy, and keep you company." Then Adam asked God, "How much is this woman going to cost?" God said, "Adam she will cost you an arm and a leg." Adam replied, "Well, what'll you give me for a rib?" And the rest is history.

THE OLD MAN AND THE LITTLE BOY

     One day an old man explained to a little boy how the Lord Jesus Himself would descend from heaven with a shout. He read 1 Thessalonians 4:16 that says For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

     Then the old man told the little boy when Jesus returns, "You can have my house." The little boy said, "Wow your house." And the old man said, "You can also have my car, furniture, and all my millions of dollars." The little boy said, "Really, wow, your house, car, furniture, and all your money. Thank you."

     But when the little boy went to bed that night he thought where will I be if Jesus returns. The old man's house, car, furniture, and all his money would be useless if I didn't have Jesus. The little boy called the old man on the phone at 3AM and said,  "I want to get saved." After the little boy got saved, he realized that if he had Jesus, he had everything he needed. In other words the house, car, furniture, and money were useless without Jesus. 

MARK 8:36

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world,

and lose his own soul?

LUKE 12:15
And He (Jesus) said unto them, Take heed and beware of covetousness:
for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of things which he possesseth.

The world says he who dies with the most toys wins
No, he who dies with the most toys loses

1 TIMOTHY 6:6

But godliness with contentment is great gain.
For we brought nothing into this world,
and it is certain we can carry nothing out.

And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

Just give blessings to the poor
and receive eternal treasure in heaven and on this earth

Get saved, repent, decide to stop sinning, 

confess that Jesus is God, and believe the gospel 

that Jesus died on the cross for you, was buried, and rose again

A STORY ABOUT TWO WOMEN SEWING THEIR HUSBAND'S PANTS

     One day two women were sewing their husbands' pants. One woman said her husband no longer wants to attend church. He says the people and the pastor have faults, no one talks to him at church, and the church only wants his money. She said her husband would rather go fishing all day Sunday because Sunday is his rest day from a long week of work. 

     The other lady said my husband loves to go to church. Ever since he's been praying and attending church, God has answered all his prayers. This is because Matthew 18:20 says for where two or three are gathered together in my name (Jesus), there am I in the midst of them. You can't gather together in your home all alone by yourself. Deuteronomy 32:30 says How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their rock had sold them, and the Lord had shut them up? For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves being judges. According to Ecclesiastes 4:9 Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken. 

While the two women kept sewing    

One was patching her husbands seat (because of constant sitting)

While the other was patching her husband's  knees (because of constant praying)

BE A SOUL WINNER FOR OUR LORD JESUS

     Remember to give our lives purpose and meaning, tell everyone everywhere about the Lord Jesus and win souls. Tell everyone to repent, decide to stop sinning, confess that Jesus is God, and believe the gospel that Jesus died on the cross for you, was buried, and rose again. Proverbs 11:30 says The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise. James 5:20 says Let him know that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way, shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. Jesus said at Luke 14:23 Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

       Jude 22 says And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. And remember the blessed promise at Daniel 12:3: And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

BLESSED SAYINGS ENCOURAGING US TO BE SOUL WINNERS FOR JESUS

Christ invites you to come

but commands you to go

Where there is one who does not know Jesus Christ

there is a mission field

It is impossible to send the gospel to the wrong place

You don't come to church to hear the gospel 

You go from church to tell the gospel

The gospel is not a secret to be hoarded

but a story to be heralded

The wisest man (Solomon's) description of a wise man

is found at Proverbs 11:30

The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life;

And he that winneth souls is wise

We talk of the second coming of Christ

when half of the world has never heard of the first coming of Christ

Robert Moffat a blessed missionary to Africa in the 1800s said

In the vast plain to the north I have sometimes seen in the morning sun

the smoke of a thousand villages where no missionary has ever been

Robert Moffat was blessed to save missionary David Livingstone

who witnessed and saved millions in Africa for our Lord Jesus

A BLESSED POEM BY DAN TRUAX ABOUT WINNING SOULS FOR JESUS

Too long I've laid me down to sleep

And prayed the Lord my soul to keep

I should awake before I die

And realize time is passing by

I should arise and go and tell the lost

Despite my plans, despite the cost

Too long I've laid me down to sleep

while multitudes about me weep

I must awake before I die

And realize my time is passing by

     I pray in Jesus name that this bible study blesses multitudes everywhere with great joy, peace, and strength.

Blessed Stories From Brother Bob

THE TAX MAN AND THE PREACHER

     One day a tax man visited a preacher to determine what taxes he owed. The tax man asked the preacher to list the property that he owned. The preacher told the
tax man I'm very wealthy and listed below is everything that I own. 

First I have everlasting life John 3:16

Second I have a mansion in heaven John 14:2

Third I have peace that passes all understanding Philippians 4:7

Fourth I have joy unspeakable and full of glory 1 Peter 1:8

Fifth I have divine love which never faileth 1 Corinthians 13:8

Sixth I have a faithful pious wife better than rubies Proverbs 31:10

Seventh I have healthy happy obedient children Exodus 20:12

Eighth I have true loyal friends and Jesus Proverbs 18:24

Ninth I have a song in the night Psalm 42:8

Tenth I have a crown of life James 1:12

The tax man closed his book and said 

Preacher truly you are a very rich man

but your blessings are not taxable

A CHRISTIAN TESTIMONY AT THE BERLIN WALL

     When the Berlin Wall existed, most of the people in East Berlin were Communist without our Lord Jesus while most of the people in West Berlin were christians saved by our Lord Jesus. One day some unsaved people from East Berlin dumped a truckload of garbage on the side of the West Berlin Wall. The people from West Berlin could have also dumped garbage on the side of the East Berlin Wall. Instead the christians from West Berlin took a truckload of canned goods, bread, and milk, and neatly stacked it on the East Berlin side. 

On top of this stack of blessings on the East Berlin side they placed a sign

Each gives what he has

     Let's all be like the christians of West Berlin and get saved, blessing and loving our enemies, allowing the light of Jesus to shine to lost sinners in this world. Get saved, repent, decide to stop sinning, confess that Jesus is God, and believe the gospel that Jesus died on the cross for you, was buried, and rose again. 

Remember it's worth being a christian and love your enemies

There's a payoff and blessings that you will receive 

When you love your enemies and rejoice when you are

persecuted for living for Jesus

Every day remember the blessed promise at James 1:25 

for serving Jesus when you feel it's not worth serving Jesus

Say Lord Jesus help me not to be just a hearer but a doer of your Word

Hallelujah, if I do the Word, I'll be blessed in every area of my life

I'll always forgive and love all my enemies

and rejoice during any persecution for Jesus

Say I'll keep my phone line open to even my worst enemy
and answer their requests for forgiveness and help
when I see an enemies name appear on my caller ID

This is because Proverbs 24:17 tell us
Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth
and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth

Lord Jesus since you daily forgive thousands of our innumerable sins
let us forgive and love our enemies forevermore like you
always forgetting their faults with no memory of their past wrongs

THE LITTLE BOY AND THE CANDY STORE

     One day a little boy standing outside a candy store looked at the many jars of candy in the window. He saw a sign on the window that said "Please do not lick the window." Today many christians are like this little boy standing outside the storehouse of God's provision, wondering how they can make all of God's good blessings theirs. 

DON'T STAND OUTSIDE GO IN

Romans 8:32 promises

He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all

how shall He not with Him freely give us all things?

Whatever you need

Just pray in the name of Jesus

believing with a mustard seed of faith

Keep going to church and reading the Word and praying

and the mountain will move away 

and nothing will be impossible unto you

according to Matthew 17:20

     You can't be saved and not know you're saved. This is because you get a witness after you get saved according to 1 John 5:10 that says He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made Him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of His Son. And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. After anyone is truly saved they will know that they have eternal life (Once saved always saved). This is promised at 1 John 5:13 that says  These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God (in other words when anyone gets saved they will know that they are saved and have eternal life) (eternal life can never die). Salvation can't be lost.
