“Go…”

“Go…”

Blessings folk!

Jesus was in the world, but not of the world…
Believers are likewise…

John 17:14
I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them,
because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world
.

Jesus came to call sinners.
Jesus lived life with sinners, tax collectors and the like.
He did so without sin.

So should we.

Sinners will not come into the Kingdom by “being invited to church”.
What a misnomer.
They will come into the Kingdom by hearing the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, believing and repenting.
They then “become the church”.

We will not reach the sinners if we await them to come to us, if we await them to come to our determined place, events, etc.

We must go to the sinner.
This requires being where they are.

Jesus put it this way…

Mat 28:19-20
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,

teaching them to observe all that I commanded you;
and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.


The “go” carries the idea of “as you are going”.
As we are going we are to…

  • make disciples of all nations…all!
  • baptize them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit…fulness of the Godhead
  • teach them to observe the commandments of the Lord
  • remember that the Lord is with us from this age through all eternity

Yes, we will be hated by some.
Yes, many will believe and become the Body.
Go!
Proclaim the Truth.
Teach the Truth.
Take off the shackles of man-made religion.
Watch what the Lord does!
