Matthew 19:23 - 19:26
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In his message, Steve Gregg urges believers to return to the uncompromised message of the Gospel that Jesus preached, emphasizing the importance of consecration and personal sacrifice for eternal salvation. He challenges the prevalent notion that saying the right words or reciting a specific prayer is enough for salvation, and emphasizes the need for a true change of heart and a surrendering of oneself to Jesus Christ. Gregg also highlights the difference between God's definition of prosperity and the false teachings of the prosperity gospel.
