Getting Healthy with Gary

In this episode, Gary discusses recent health issues, as well as giving a few hints and tips about getting and staying in physical shape.

For nearly 2000 years the church has believed in the life-transforming power of the gospel, the regenerating power of the Holy Spirit, the sufficiency of Scripture as “an Instruction Book on how to live,” the Sovereignty and Providence of God in time and in history, the subjection of Satan to the finished work of Christ and the Church (Matthew 16:18; Rom. 16:20; Col. 1:13; 2:15; Rev. 12:7–9; Mark 3:27; Luke 10:18; 11:20; John 14:30; 16:11; 1 John 3:8; 5:18; James 4:7), discipling the nations (Matt. 28:18–20), and the ultimate victory of God’s kingdom that will one day be delivered up by Jesus to His Father (1 Cor. 15:20–28).

This was the faith of the early church, a faith that prompted those outside of Christ to acknowledge that in a short span of time these Christians had “turned the world upside down” (Acts 17:6). What a testimony! These few rag-tag disciples of Jesus, with little money (Acts 3:6), no national television ministries, no publishing companies, newsletters, blog posts, Facebook pages, or websites had turned the world upside down.

How did they do it? They took with them the Word of God, “sharper than any two-edged sword” (Heb. 4:12–13) and able to equip us “for every good work” (2 Tim. 3:16–17), the gospel which is “the power of God for salvation to every one who believes” (Rom. 1:16), and the Holy Spirit Who equips us “in every good thing to do His will” (Heb. 13:21). And, yes, faith in God that He would accomplish all that He had promised. Oh, there is one other thing: obedience to God’s revealed will.

There really is nothing new in any of this. God’s people have “by faith conquered kingdoms” and performed acts of righteousness, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight” (Heb. 11:33–34).
