Part 2
What does Jesus Christ want me to do?
Jesus expects us to ’Go’
And He said to them, “Go* into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.“
Mark 16:15
* Greek ‘poreuthentes’ (4198)
Paul Commanded Us To ‘PREACH!’
13 for “ WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED.” 14 How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher? 15 How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, “ HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD THINGS!”
Romans 10:13-15
St. Francis of Assisi
“preach the gospel always, if necessary use words.”
“It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching.
“Depart from Me.
“18 Then Moses said, ‘I pray You, show me Your glory!’ 19 And He said, ‘I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of the LORD before you; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show compassion on whom I will show compassion.’”
Exodus 33:18-19
20 But He said, “You cannot see My face, for no man can see Me and live!” 21 Then the LORD said, “Behold, there is a place by Me, and you shall stand there on the rock; 22 and it will come about, while My glory is passing by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with My hand until I have passed by. 23 Then I will take My hand away and you shall see My back, but My face shall not be seen.”
Exodus 33:20-23
“For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; 15 and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf.”
2 Corinthians 5:14-15
“I am motivated by the love and justice
Of the Lord God Almighty.”
