Sharing the good news of Jesus Christ is not optional. We have all been commissioned by Jesus to get out there and tell people about Him. This is not the Great Suggestion, it’s the Great Commission, and just incase you didn’t catch it the first time, in the book of Matthew, God inspired other versions of this solemn charge from His son in four other places.
Matthew 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
Mark 16:15 And he said to them, "Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.
Luke 24:46-48 and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things.
John 20:21 Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I am sending you."
Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."
In many ways God has brought “all nations” reaching “to the ends of the earth” here to the city of Brampton. Today, you have been sent as a missionary by simply showing up at work or by walking your child to school or going to the mall. I’m praying for you today that God would give you an opportunity to share your faith with courageous clarity today.
