Go into all the World

"How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!" Romans 10:14-15


There are many people who have never heard the gospel of Jesus Christ and will die and go to hell because we Christians are staying in our comfort zone and not preaching the Good News! It is a commandment to preach the Gospel and yet we ignore the Word of God. It says "And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the
whole creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." Mark 16:15-16. See, it is not our job to saved people, that's the Holy Spirit's job. Our job is just to present the Gospel to them. If they turn away from your teaching, don't look at it like they're rejecting you because they're not. They're rejecting Christ who is knocking on their door. Here is a question for you, How much do you have to hate someone, to not tell them the Good News? Think about it, if they never hear the Gospel and turn to Jesus, they will spend all eterity in Hell! Don't say to yourself "I don't hate people" when you won't pick up your Bible and tell them the best news they'll ever hear which is able to save their soul. I speak for myself as well. Please take in what I am trying to get across and practice getting out of your comfort zone, because the things of this world is not worth or what we should look forward to, but the gifts of God are. "preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry." 2 Timothy 4:2-5
To God be the Glory!

  1. Oh Jake, this is SO good. The verses you have used blessed my heart and encouraged me in my own walk. The words from your heart encouraged me also. We must step out and be willing to risk it all to share the Gospel. Above all, the Truth needs to be spoken. Many will reject it as the Word tells us, but many will receive it also. We must be about His business. Thanks for the post and thanks for your walk in Christ!
