All To Be Saved

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Friday morning, the 5th of September, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in 1 Timothy 2:4:

”…who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. “ 

All men to be saved! Jesus does not want one person to go to hell, to perish in that everlasting fire. He wants all men to be saved. The most famous scripture in the whole Bible is found in the Gospel of John 3:16:

”For God so loved the world (that’s you and me) that He gave His only begotten Son (that’s Jesus) that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.“ 

Jesus loves sinners. He died for sinners. He said, ”I didn’t come for the righteous, I came for the sinner.” (Luke 5:32)

I don’t know how many mothers I have met and read about, who prayed for their wayward sons and daughters, and eventually they came to the saving grace of Christ. Our Lord is not out there to catch us out. He is not out there to condemn us. He came to give us life abundantly. (John 10:10). Where are you standing today? Are you still running, my dear friend? Are you running from God? Are you trying to run from your past? Stop it today and accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour, and He will change your life. He did it for me.

I want to do something that I don’t always do on this little programme. I want to give you the opportunity of saying sorry to Jesus, accepting Him as your risen Lord and Saviour, and starting all over again.

If you’d like to do that, please pray this prayer after me:

Dear Lord Jesus, 

Thank You for dying for me, a sinner, on the Cross of Calvary. 

Today I believe that you are the Son of God, that You have come to save me, to forgive me of all my sins and to give me a brand new life. 

In Jesus' name, amen.

Now, I want to ask you to do something, just like I did when I prayed that same prayer that you have just prayed, tell the first three people that you meet today, what you have done. You don’t have to labour it but don’t hold back because this is the beginning of a new life for you. 

Jesus bless you you and goodbye.
