DW, How Were Your Barriers Removed?

Episode 25

Series: How Were Your Barriers Removed - 4

1 Corinthians 6:9-11 declares “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.”

If there was ever a person who epitomized the phrase “And such were some of you” it would be DW. DW was a fornicator and an enemy of God before he was “washed” and “justified” when he came to a saving knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

DW is a former Marine, a father, and a husband.  He has a desire to serve the Lord and evangelize the lost. He regularly shares the gospel of Jesus Christ, the same gospel that change his life, and seeks opportunities to do so.

Listen as DW shares his barriers to salvation, how he was confronted with the deity of Christ, and how his barriers were finally removed.

Introduction to the Removing Barriers Podcast

This blog has been permanently relocated to https://www.removingbarriers.net Redirecting in seconds... With the civil unrest,  heightened political climate, changing American culture, and the inability to act ually go door-to-door witnessing due to COVID-19, my wife and I decided to start a podcast with the sole purpose of sharing the gospel by addressing the many obstacles preventing others from seeing the cross of Jesus clearly. In Acts 2, Peter preached to the Jews and presented to them Jesus Christ the Messiah. This was because the Jews already knew about God the creator, sin, and sin's consequences. The barrier that needed to be removed was whether Jesus was the Messiah. Contrast that with Acts 17, where Paul preached to the Athenians and defended the faith by proving that the unknown God they ignorantly worshiped was the creator of the world. Notice that while the message of the...

Was Jesus Black?

This blog has been permanently relocated to https://www.removingbarriers.net Redirecting in seconds... Episode 38 In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we discuss the subject of Jesus' ethnicity. In a recent interview, CNN anchor Don Lemon declared that in order to heal America's apparent racism problem, we must acknowledge that Jesus was black, or at least brown. He went on to encourage families to hang pictures of this Jesus in their homes, teaching children what he calls "the truth." Is he right? What does the bible say about the ethnicity of Jesus? Does it even matter? What problems can be healed by Jesus' ethnicity? Join us as we explore this topic and discover the truth about Jesus' ethnicity.
