ON BEHALF OF CHRIST:
SPEAKING TRUTH IN SINCERITY!
By
Pastor Max Solbrekken, D.D.
Commercials
and infomercials, do they really work? Daily, we are bombarded with intrusive,
unwanted and irritating commercials over television, radio, internet, and even
through the telephone! Billions of dollars are spent annually to advertise various
products during special sporting and other events.
Advertisers must believe those expensive
commercials will bring them new customers or they would not invest so much. Some
of the commercials are in good taste, others are not! Some are truthful and
some are not! We are subjected to both during an election. A good example is the
extravagant, amazing and almost god-like hype of Barack Obama’s ability to
govern. While Sir Winston Churchill promised, “Nothing but, blood, sweat and
tears” and John F. Kennedy challenged, “Ask not what your country can do for
you, but what you can do for your country”, Barack Obama was the great hero who
would give Americans everything they wanted for free.
Multitudes believed him, but six years
later the majority of Americans are calling him ‘Commander in Speech’ and worse
‘Liar in Chief’. America is drowning in debt, corruption and perversion!
For more than fifty years I have been a
spokesman for the Lord Jesus Christ and His pure, unadulterated, unvarnished, unedited
and unblemished Gospel. In His presence, all pretenders to power and greatness are
like grasshoppers and bugs groveling about in the earth!
In the early 1990s, President Boris
Yeltsin stated: “We have lied to you for 70 years. Communism is dead in Russia. There
will be No More Lies.” While preaching in the former Soviet Union, I
applauded the Premier of Russia, saying: “The Gospel of Jesus Christ has been
heralded across the world for nearly 2,000 years and there has never been or
ever will be any LIES connected to Him because He is the Way, the
Truth and the Life.” (John
14: 6). Amen.
