THE GREAT COMMISSION
TEXT: Mark16:15-16
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature.
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."
*KEY VERSE:*
1 Cor.9: 16 "For though I preach the gospel, I have nothin to glory of: for necessity is laid
upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!"
*THE EVANGELISM VISION*
Evangelism vision cannot be passive, but must be active because there are six considerations in this life, these are:
1.) We have only one life to live and only what we do for Christ will be rewarded in eternity, and every
time we wake up in the morning we should ask ourselves is there going to be a star in my crown? When appear in glory, am I doing anything that I will be remembered for in eternity?
James 4:14 "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour,
that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
1 Peter l:24 "For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth,
and the flower thereof falleth away:"
2.) Any man with the Vision of Christ knows that we are saved to serve, we are born to reproduce, we
are converted so that we can convert other people, we come into the kingdom at a time such as this so that
we can make a mark in the kingdom, and there should not be a useless member in the body of Christ.
John 15: 16 "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring
forth fruit. and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he
may give it you."
2 Corinthians 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their
trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation "
Psalm 51:11-13 "Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away
from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and
uphold me with thy free spirit. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be
converted unto thee."
3.) Lukewarmness makes us to be rejected by Christ and ejected from the kingdom.
Rev. 3:16 "So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Ezekiel 33:8-9 (KJV) When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from it; if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
