The Gospel is preached to introduce you to the Saviour that God has provided, Jesus Christ. In this preaching, you will hear from the Bible of two encounters with Jesus that resulted in them believing and receiving the Saviour.
Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation
Luke 8:40-56 “40 And it came to pass when Jesus returned, the crowd received him gladly, for they were all expecting him.41 And behold, a man came, whose name was Jairus, and he was [a] ruler of the synagogue, and falling at the feet of Jesus besought him to come to his house,42 because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. And as he went the crowds thronged him.
43 And a woman who had a flux of blood since twelve years, who, having spent all her living on physicians, could not be cured by any one,44 coming up behind, touched the hem of his garment, and immediately her flux of blood stopped.45 And Jesus said, Who has touched me? But all denying, Peter and those with him said, Master, the crowds close thee in and press upon thee, and sayest thou, Who has touched me?46 And Jesus said, Some one has touched me, for *I* have known that power has gone out from me.
47 And the woman, seeing that she was not hid, came trembling, and falling down before him declared before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was immediately healed.48 And he said to her, [Be of good courage,] daughter; thy faith has healed thee; go in peace.49 While he was yet speaking, comes some one from the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; do not trouble the teacher.
50 But Jesus, hearing it, answered him saying, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be made well.51 And when he came to the house he suffered no one to go in but Peter and John and James and the father of the child and the mother.52 And all were weeping and lamenting her. But he said, Do not weep, for she has not died, but sleeps.53 And they derided him, knowing that she had died.54 But *he*, having turned them all out and taking hold of her hand, cried saying, Child, arise.55 And her spirit returned, and immediately she rose up; and he commanded [something] to eat to be given to her.56 And her parents were amazed; but he enjoined them to tell no one what had happened.”
Mark 6:53-56 “53 And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret and made the shore.54 And on their coming out of the ship, immediately recognising him,55 they ran through that whole country around, and began to carry about those that were ill on couches, where they heard that he was.56 And wherever he entered into villages, or cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the market-places, and besought him that they might touch if it were only the hem of his garment; and as many as touched him were healed.”
Numbers 15:37-41 “37 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,38 Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them tassels on the corners of their garments, throughout their generations, and that they attach to the tassel of the corners a lace of blue;
39 and it shall be unto you for a tassel, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of Jehovah, and do them; and that ye seek not after [the lusts of] your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye go a whoring;40 that ye may remember and do all my commandments, and be holy unto your God.41 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to be your God: I am Jehovah your God.”
