La Voix de l’Évangile, Québec is a vital part of the extensive radio work of MissionGO

which reaches into many French-speaking countries of the world. The broadcasts are recorded in the studio of the radio follow-up office in Châteauguay.

The ministry began in 1955 in the Back to the Bible Broadcast studios in Lincoln, Nebraska through a staff member who spoke French fluently and had a burden for the French-speaking people of the world. An office was soon established in Aix-en-Provence in France.

In 1974, an office was opened in Châteauguay, Québec, under the direction of MissionGO representatives, Clarence and Pearl Shelly. At the present time, the broadcasts are aired on one station in Montreal and one in Champlain, NY. Stephen Frank became the director of La Voix de l’Évangile, Québec in 2006. His wife, Karen, is also a representative of MissionGO.

The weekly French-language 15-minute broadcast features Pastor Michel Martel, a Québec evangelist who faithfully teaches the Word of God. Audio messages (in French only) are available on CDs at a reasonable cost as well as approximately 40 books in French on the Christian life.

How to have Eternal Life
Epicurus, the Greek philosopher, said: « Each of us leaves life with the feeling that he has just been born, » while according to the Arabic proverb, « Death is closer to us than the eyelid of the eye. »

The thoughtful man therefore thinks of the afterlife, but only one throughout the history of mankind has triumphed over death; one who spoke with authority and simplicity of eternal life – Jesus Christ.

What is eternal life?
Eternal life is a life that never ends, and moreover, has a spiritual dimension. Jesus told His listeners, « I tell you the truth, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life. » The Gospel according to John 5:24.
His listeners were alive, but because of sin (and all are sinners) they were dead spiritually. Many brilliant men are nevertheless agnostics, atheists, because they are spiritually dead. Their relationship with God is broken, for they do not know Him. Jesus said to His Father, « Now this is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. » John 17:3
 
You and eternal life
« Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made Him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about His Son. And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. » First epistle of John 5:10-12.
The theme of the Holy Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is that of the Redeemer, the Son of God. Over 300 prophecies were fulfilled to the letter in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.It is God speaking to you and if you do not believe in this message, or if you modify it, you make God a liar and you bring upon yourself everlasting destruction, far from the presence of the Lord.But, if by faith you receive Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour, you will live forever.
Jesus knocks at the door of your life. He wants to give you eternal life. You can experience the forgiveness of sin, peace and communion with God, and the power of a new and spiritual life. This life also has an eternal dimension; therefore, death is not the end but the dawn of an eternal and glorious day in the presence of Jesus Christ and His Father.
 
How do we receive eternal life?
« For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. » John 3:16. 
What needs to be done to inherit eternal life? We must trust in Jesus Christ. Sin caused death: spiritual and physical. Every man is spiritually dead and all die physically. Jesus paid the debt of our sin and therefore, if we are willing to turn from our sins and trust Him, He will forgive us and give us eternal life, for « the Son gives life to whom He is pleased to give it. » John 5.21
 
Can we know that we have eternal life?
The apostle John completed his first epistle with the words, « I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. » 1 John 5:13. Jesus gave this assurance to the repentant thief, telling him, « today you will be with Me in paradise. » The Gospel according to Luke 23:43
 
Can you lose eternal life?
In this case it would not be eternal. Moreover, Jesus said, « And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of all that He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day. For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. » John 6:39 & 40. Speaking of His « sheep” He says: « I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of My hand. » John 10:28. As Jesus gives eternal life to all who trust in Him, He also keeps.
 
It’s Your Decision « For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son … Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him. » John. 3:17, 18 & 36
These verses in the Gospel of John say that you have the responsibility for your eternal fate in your hands. Jesus has done all that is necessary for your salvation and now offers you eternal life. « He who believes has everlasting life. » John 6:47.That is His promise.
What will you do with Jesus? Draw near to God in prayer and tell Him with all your heart that you trust in Jesus Christ in order to receive His salvation and eternal life.
 
Let us know of your decision so that we can rejoice with you and send you literature to help you in your new life of faith in Jesus Christ.

Aches and Praise Five Hundred & Fifty Seven

Dear friends,  
 

On Tuesday, we looked at Acts 21 and 22 in our weekly Bible study group on Zoom. The apostle Paul brought a gift to the brethren in Jerusalem from the churches in Europe. In his Study Bible, Dr. David Jeremiah observes: “Estimates are that as many as 50,000 Jews in Judea had converted to Christ while maintaining their zeal for all things Jewish. They were in the process of transitioning from Judaism to Christianity. Many of them continued to observe the law – not as a means of salvation but out of respect for God and their heritage.”

After Paul was seized by the temple crowd, he asked to speak to the commander, Claudius Lysias, who thought Paul was an Egyptian who stirred up a rebellion (Acts 21:30-38). Paul stated that he was a Jew from Tarsus and was given permission to speak to the people. He began by saying: “Brethren and fathers, hear my defense before you now” (22:1). Dr. Jeremiah notes: “The word translated ‘defense’ (apologaeia) provides the root meaning for the word ‘apologetics,’ the discipline of giving sound reasons for faith in Christ. Paul exemplified apologetics at work by defending his faith before a hostile audience: he understood the language and the culture; he demonstrated his life before and after Christ; he gave evidence of God’s work in his life; and he focused on Christ.”

Dr. Jeremiah describes four principles that we would do well to remember when we share our faith:

  1. “Do not be intimidated by the testimony of others. Paul definitely had a powerful preconversion story – he was the modern-day equivalent of a hitman, responsible for the deaths of many innocent Jewish believers in Christ. Of course, he thought he was doing the work of God (Acts 26:9; 1 Tim. 1:13), but it was dramatic nonetheless. Those of us who were raised in a “Christian” nation and in church environments do not have such dramatic stories to tell, and we think our testimonies are less important or interesting than others’. But nothing could be further from the truth! Every lost sheep that is found by the Good Shepherd has a story that results in praise to His grace. Every testimony is important, including yours, if you truly know Christ as Saviour.
  2. Do not get lost in the details. Remember the three parts of every testimony: what you were, how you met Christ, and what you are now – the basic elements of any “before and after” story. Those three points provide an excellent outline for anyone’s testimony and can help a person stay focused. The truth is that “all have sinned” (Rom. 3:23). Expressing that fact about ourselves conveys the sense that we know what is most important for others to hear.
  3. Do not forget the details of your salvation experience. This point might sound contradictory to the previous one, but it is not. Becoming a Christian happens at a specific point in time. The events leading a person to accept Christ might have been a process, but the moment at which anyone makes a conscious decision to place his or her faith in Christ and submit to His Lordship as Saviour is the moment a person becomes a Christian.
  4. Do not let the enemy persuade you that your story is unimportant. Satan would love to convince each of us that the story of our salvation is inconsequential to the rest of the world. But here is the secret to remember: Satan is not trying to keep people from hearing about us; he is trying to keep people from hearing about God! And if we are the channel for the message of God’s grace and forgiveness, then Satan wants to shut that channel down by trying to convince us to remain silent. Satan’s target in spiritual warfare is God – working to persuade Christians that God is not worth trusting, that He is unfaithful and unforgiving. When we stumble and sin in the Christian life, Satan is not saying “Look at that poor Christian,” he is saying, “Look at the weak God who could not keep that Christian from sinning.” If we yield to the pressure not to speak about the grace of God that saved us, the people who need to know of His grace may never hear. Do not let the enemy persuade you that your story is unimportant. Be sure to give the glory to God.”

 

By God’s grace, let us declare what the Lord has done and is doing in our life, as well as encourage others to seek Him.
 

Scripture for the weekend: “Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.” Hebrews 13:20-21 (NKJV)

Thought for the weekend: “It takes faith to be patient, but it also takes trials to give us that patience! Trials without faith will create impatience, but trials plus faith can create in us a patience that permits God to do what He wants to do.” – Warren W. Wiersbe (from his book “Why Us? When Bad Things Happen to God’s People”)
