Greg Laurie: A New Beginning

Joel Rosenberg and Pastor Greg Laurie discuss what's been happening in Israel and how Christians should respond in light of Bible prophecy.

Israel, Prophecy, and What Christians Should Do (with Joel Rosenberg)

Some things seem impossible. But with God, nothing is. Even our nation, which seems so filled with darkness, can change with the Lord.

Yes, there is hope for America. And it starts with Christians.

Christians are salt and light. Salt preserves. Salt stimulates thirst. Light exposes darkness and shows the way out. And as salt and light, Christians must infiltrate culture, not isolate. Christians are not called to evade, but invade.

And who knows? You may be the only representative of Jesus some people will ever see! They may never read the Bible, but they’ll read your life.

Notes:

Some things just seem impossible. But with God, nothing is impossible.
 
Our country is in a state of moral and spiritual crisis.
 
We have two options before us as a nation: judgment or revival.
 
Read Matthew 5:13–16 (NKJV)
 
The world needs salt because it is corrupt and light because it is dark.
  
This world will get worse before it gets better.
2 Timothy 3:13
 
Sometimes Christians try to isolate.
 
Jesus has not called us to isolate, but to infiltrate. Not to evade but to invade.
 
Jesus is sending us into the world.
  
Before the American Revolution, there was spiritual revelation.
 
The American Revolution worked because it was rooted in spiritual and biblical principles.
 
“To the distinguished character of Patriot, it should be our highest glory
to add the more distinguished character of Christian”.  —George Washington
 
“The Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.”  —John Adams
 
We must stand for truth, whether it is popular or not.
 
To reach our culture, we must use a language people understand.
 
1 Corinthians 9:22–23
 
We need to bring them the message of the gospel.
 
2 Corinthians 2:14–15
 
But before we can effectively tell them, we must first live it.
 
Salt Preserves
The main function of salt in Jesus’ day was preservation.
 
Christians, like salt, are also here to preserve.
 
Salt Stimulates Thirst
As we live godly lives, we make other people thirsty for God.
 
We cannot stimulate spiritual thirst in others if we have lost our own.
 
We cannot be used by God to stop the corruption of sin in others if sin has corrupted us.
Matthew 5:13
 
Jesus first says we are to be salt, then He says we are to be light.
 
Salt is hidden, whereas light is obvious.
Salt works secretly while light works openly.
Salt works from within, but light works from without.
 
Salt works primarily through our living, while light works through what we say to others.
 
Light exposes the darkness.
 
You are the only representative of Jesus Christ that many nonbelievers will ever see.
 
We need to infiltrate, not isolate, being both salt and light.
  
We need to pray.
2 Chronicles 7:14
 
We need to preach the gospel message.
 
There is hope for America, and there is hope for you.
 
Hebrews 4:7(b)
If you can hear His voice, harden not your heart.

Do Harvest Crusades Still Work in 2026?

Imagine if the richest man in the world slipped you a piece of paper and said, “Here’s my cell number. Call me if I can ever do something for you.” And then you hear a sound. Oh, it was your jaw hitting the floor. Imagine! What an invitation! Well today on A NEW BEGINNING, we see we have an invitation from God himself to come to Him anytime in prayer. No cell phone required. Pastor Greg Laurie is offering insights to help encourage us straight from the truths in God’s Word.
