Try to be there as this is an important subject

Morake: Grace and peace everyone. Iam here.

Nakia Hawley: Hello Everyone! I'm here also!

Daphne Crause: Greetings everyone

Magnus Martinsson: Hi everyone

Mark Stalnaker: I’m here

Shanterica Robinson: Hi everyone

Les: Welcome everyone

[Les: Tonight I want to speak about Salvation and the Gospel

Les: To start I would like to ask you a simple question

Les: Are you saved?

Mark Stalnaker: Yes 🙌

John Crause: Yes

How do you know you are saved?

Mark Stalnaker: By Him the Holy Spirit my down payment

There is assurance in by spirit by the Holy spirit

Les: How did this come about?

Morake: In my spirit

Les: saved

Morake: The holy spirit gave me a new birth.

Les: So you were just going along minding your own business, and suddenly the Holy Spirit saved you?

Mark Stalnaker: conviction, revelation, acceptance….He made me new

Les: Yes, but how did this all come about?

Mark Stalnaker: I heard the Gospel

Les: What did God use to save you?

Morake: I was convicted by him after hearing the gospel

Les: ah thank you

Les: Now let me share a Scripture with you

Les: Romans 1:15 So, with everything that is in me, I am also keen to preach the Gospel to you who are in Rome. [GBMV]

Les: Paul was writing here to Roman Christians

Les: They had all heard the Gospel and got saved, right?

Les: So why did He still want to preach the gospel to them?

[2Les: Did they need to hear it again?

Morake: No, they believed it.

Les: Let's clarify first what we mean by salvation and then what is meant by the Gospel

Mark Stalnaker: So that they could hear the complete gospel and the fullness of it for every area of their existence.

Les: What does it mean to be saved?

Mark Stalnaker: To be delivered from the curse of the fall and sin, to lead an abundant life

Les: I want you to look at this passage in James

Les: James 5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, having anointed him with olive oil in the name of the Lord:

15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. [GBMV]

Les: Paul speaks about the sick being saved

[Les: Were they not born again yet?

Les: ssorry James

Morake: Salvation is an ongoing process.

Les: Yes, but then how can you say you are saved now?

Morake: Every area of our lives needs salvation.

Les: When you first accepted the Lord as your savior, did you have full assurance that you were saved?

Morake: My spirit is saved.

Les: Did you feel something real that convinced you that you are saved?

Shanterica Robinson: I did, I felt that my spirit was reborn

Mark Stalnaker: I did, I was different

Les: I was taught that when I lead someone to the Lord

Morake: Nothing to feel, but the Holy gives witness to our spirit that we are da saved.

Shanterica Robinson: My heart changed, my mind changed, I repented to others and asked for forgiveness, my countenance even changed

Morake: Holy Spirit

Les: I would use a Scripture like this

Les: Romans 10:13 For whoever will call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. [GBMV]

Les: When you are first born again, you are not even aware. that the holy Spirit exists

Les: Your faith is based squarely on the Word

Daphne Crause: Yes

Les: God said it, I believe it, and that settles it

Les: James Kennedy, in his Evangelism Explosion, would ask someone two questions

Les: 1. Are you sure that if you died now, you would go to heaven?

Les: 2. If you died and stood before God and he were to ask you, “Why should I let you into heaven?” what would you say?

Les: Would say, “Because I feel saved?”

Les: Or would you take your stand on the Word?

Mark Stalnaker: the word is always first

Les: Clearly not many of you have led someone to the Lord?

Les: ok now with that behind us, I want to go further into the actual salvation experience

Les: You should have come to the Lord in prayer and said something like this

Les: Lord Jesus, I believe that you died for my sins and I accept you now as My lord and Savior

Nakia Hawley: I have not

Les: You should learn the Evangelism Explosion method

Les: I have used it for many years

Daphne Crause: Yes, it is powerful

Les: What if you are in a church and the preACHER invites folks to come forward?

Les: often he will first lead them in a time of prayer

Morake: I love too

Les: But usually each person will be given a chaNCE to speak to a counselor

Les: if you are that counselor, how will you lead them to the Lord and then give them assurance that they are now saved?

Les: You would need to give them some Scripture, then pray with them, and then give them more Scripture

Les: Only later, as they grow spiritually, will they come to the place where they have assuraNCE from the Holy Spirit

Les: I noticed this when I did teaching on evangelism that few believers understand the process of the New Birth

Les: No wonder you have not led anyone to the Lord yet

Les: Because you do not know how

Nakia Hawley: So true

Les: But that is another subject we can discuss further

Les: I will be giving a lot more on this soon, because the Lord is currently taking me through a new level of training as an evangelist

Les: But tonight I want to follow a different order

Les: I want you to see what SaLVATION really entails

Les: The original Greek verb translated Saved is the Greek word Sozo

Les: It is the same word used whenever the Scripture speaks of being saved

Les: It is the word used also by James concerning saving the sick

Les: The word Sozo has many meanings, but we always think only of the New Birth

Les: But it actually refers to the New Birth, Healing, and deliverance, including deliverance from poverty and lack

Les: So when the Word speaKS OF being saved it refers to the New Birth, Healing and Deliverance

Mark Stalnaker: Amen

Daphne Crause: Yes

Les: But it is never taught that way because we have limited the Gospel to the Good News of the New Birth

Les: But it is also the good news of healing, provision, and deliverance from every problem in life

Les: Unfortunately, we are only taught to receive Jesus as our savior

Les: Then after the new birth, we struggle to obtain healing for our bodies and provision and all the other blessings of life

Les: I can guarantee that though you have received Jesus as your Savior, you have never received Him as your healer

Les: or as your provider

Mark Stalnaker: Good point!

John Crause: Yeah

Les: When we need deliverance from sin, we come to Jesus to receive cleansing in his blood

Les: But when we are sick, we look to the physical and seek a medical practitioner

Les: When we lack finances, we look to work and business to provide

Daphne Crause: Yes

Les: But sickness and poverty are both the result of sin

Mark Stalnaker: They are

Les: Jesus is our Savior from all of them

Mark Stalnaker: Yes Amen!

Les: Until sin is dealt with, neither sickness nor lack can be addressed

Nakia Hawley: Amen

Les: When Adam sinned, he gave Satan license to destroy his life

Les: That is when sickness first appeared

Les: That is when loss of lack first appeared

Daphne Crause: Yes exactly

Les: They lost the boundtiful provision of God in the Garden

Morake: Very true

Les: So tonight I am going to lead you into a different kind of Evangelistic process

Les: and I am not going to lead you to the Lord for salvation

Les: You have already accepted HIm AS THAT

Les: But I want to lead you to the Lord as your healer and protector and provider

Les: Are you ready to do this?

Morake: Amen. Iam so ready.

Les: Today is going to be a turning point in your life

Les: like the day you were born again

Jessica Anthony: Amen🙏🏽

Morake: Amen. I receive

Les: I will do as I usually do with an unbeliever when I am leading them to the Lord

Les: I want you yo repeat after me the following prayer

Les: and you must mean it with all your heart

Les: Lord Jesus, I have already received you as My Savior

Les: Now I come to accept you as my healer and provider

Les: I acknowledge that just as I could not save myself from my sin

Les: I also cannot save myself from sickness and lack

Les: So I ask you to come into my life now nd do what I CANNOT do

Daphne Crause: Yes, amen

Les: I ask that the Holy Spirit move through my body nd heal it from everything that is not perfect health

Les: make sure you speak these words out loud

Les: then they carry greater power and are like signing on a dotted line

Les: Lord Jesus, I confess you now as my Lord and Savior

[Les: Not only from my sins of the past and my daily failures

Les: But as the healer of both my soul and my body

Les: I ask you to provide in abundance for my temporary needs

Les: From this day forward, Lord, come and live your life in me

Les: in and through me

Les: I yield my body to you as a living sacrifice

Les: Let it be your temple in which you live and move

Les: Thank you for it, Lord

Les: I receive it now

Les: Lord Jesus, I pray now for each one here

Les: I ask you to grant full assurance of faith

Les: and cause these things to become reality in the life of each one

Les: Come, Holy Spirit, and do what only you can do. Amen

Les: If you prayed that prayer, then I want to welcome you to the Abundant life that will be yours in Him

John Crause: Amen

Nakia Hawley: Amen 🙏

Morake: Amen

Jessica Anthony: Amen🙏🏽

Les: Each Day as you go out into this world, take Him with you

Mark Stalnaker: Amen, and I did indeed receive it

Shanterica Robinson: Amen!

Les: And you will walk in victory in all areas

Lila Jones: Hello. Sorry for the interruption. I’m just coming in...on my lunch break

Les: Mark this day as important like the DAY you were born again

Mark Stalnaker: Yes!

Lila Jones: Okay, I will go through after I get off work. Thank you.

Les: I will also publish this chat on GBM Books for those who missed it

[essica Anthony: Amen 01 day of June, new beginnings🙏🏽

Les: You no longer need to struggle with sickness or lack

Mark Stalnaker: I am, and it so happens it is the first day of the month, the first day of a new life.

Nakia Hawley: I love this! June 1 2026 Amen 🙏

Les: just as you no longer need to struggle with sin

Morake: Amen. Thank you. That will be a good reminder for us.

Les: Go and walk now in His blessing

Les: and live the Abundant Life

Mark Stalnaker: Amen

Nakia Hawley: My mom passed away on June 3rd, 2016, 10 years ago. I can now look at the first of June differently

Morake: Yes, June first. Month of new things.

Les: You will be amazed at how things begin to fall into place for you from now on

Les: expect your life to change

Morake: Amen.

Mark Stalnaker: I am expecting exactly that
