God wants the gospel to be preached to all nations as a testimony
God wants the church to preach the gospel everywhere (Matt 24:14).
How did the early church spread the gospel? What can you do to help spread the gospel of Jesus Christ globally? What blessings are for those who spread the gospel?
Text Acts 8:1-8; Acts 16:5-9;
In Acts 8:1-8, the church started global missions due to persecution. In Acts 16:5-9, Paul saw an opportunity to go on global missions. At CHC, we are in a season of global missions- taking the gospel to the ends of the earth. We are preparing our mindset to go to the nations with the gospel.
Motivation for spreading the gospel
The promise to bless them if they preach the gospel (Mark 10:28-31 )
The warning against not serving God (e.g., Deut. 28:47-48; Jer 20:9; 1 Cor 9:16-17)
The love for God (John 6:66-70; 14:31).
What can you do to help spread the gospel of Jesus Christ globally?
Do whatever you can to help spread the gospel (e.g. Luke 8:1-3).
Do not work against Central Harvest Church (see Matthew 16:18).
Ask questions to understand how we are spreading the gospel
