TOPIC: THE GREAT COMMISSION OF CHRIST
TEXT: MATTHEW 28:18-20
MONDAY AUGUST 15th
Key verse: Mark 16:20. And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
Jesus Christ and the apostles preached that: All disciples of Jesus Christ are commissioned by the Lord to go into the world and preach the gospel to every human creature. The commission given entails going out to tell sinners everywhere the goodness of salvation in Christ, baptizing those who accept or believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and teaching the believers all the word of God. This involves:
I. Personal evangelism: one-on-one preaching
II. Crusade evangelism: mass evangelism
III. Literature evangelism: Christian books, tracts, journals, magazines, etc.
IV. Media evangelism: TV, Radio, Internet, social media, and every legitimate way of passing the gospel of Jesus to the perishing world.
The great commission has two components: To bring sinners to repentance and faith in Christ for their salvation from sin and to teach the believers or disciples all the word of God written in the bible. This is required for their freedom, holiness, righteousness, victory, fruitfulness, and eternal life. It is not enough for a man to be born again, he needs to know and practice scriptural truths and doctrines required for the security of his Christian faith. Without full obedience to every word of God and holiness, no man shall see the Lord.
It is not good to be in ignorance. Ignorance of the requirement of eternal life will hinder one from possessing it. All true believers and churches are working for one cause and so should learn to work together required to win the world for Jesus. The great commission calls for wisdom and dedication in Christ’s disciples.
Thought for the day: Dedicate yourself daily to fulfilling the great commission.
Song for the day: Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord…
Bible reading for the day:
Psalms 103-104 Romans 14
