  • The only way we’ll complete the Great Commission is if some of us accept God’s call to take the gospel to the unengaged and unreached peoples of our world.

    This is my calling. Sought out & ministered to the largest UPG on earth, Bangladeshi Muslims, until we were evacuated out of Bangladesh. 8 months before having to leave, I was 'inexplicably' burdened for the Japanese. I prayed for them & the work there, but was a little confused... until I discovered that the Japanese are the second largest UPG on earth! We're in NC now, ministering to both Bangladeshi and Japanese communities living here, but I never lose that tug in my spirit to get going onward to the darkest places.

      This is interesting brother. Am Derrick From Uganda, this last one month the good Lord is zeroing down my call to missions to Japan and am praying he opens the door for me to go. Am thinking of going as a master student or tent maker. I did a bachelors degree in civil and building engineering.

    Spurgeon said a christian is either a "missionary or an impostor". I think the point behind his quote was that all Christians should preach the gospel or do the work of an evangelist, but not necessarily be a long term missionary away from his/her sending church.

    The Bible says
    Love your neighbor as yourself
    I believe that often we failed to see the lost awaiting lost soul next to us.
    Its Christ grace helping me do the basic.

    Man. This is me. Pray for me. I'm only just 20 and I feel a real calling to Morocco as a doctor working with muslim women. But I'm a single woman with no money and I haven't even sat the entrance exam for medicine. My parents don't really want me to go. I don't know any Arabic. I don't know anybody from Morocco. There's just so much I don't know but I want to honour God and be obedient to him. No matter where I am, now and forever.

    I am currently a student at Moody Bible Institute wanting to be a missionary pilot and I have no idea how to fund this, but the Lords will be done. I really want to serve in this, but just as proverbs says "man will plan his path, but it is the Lord who establishes his steps". It will be fun to either see the Lord provide or to be put where the Lord wants me.

      Raudel Hernandez so, I believe Piper and Spurgeon would agree on this: all people who are disciples of Christ are also called to be disciple makers. There is no exception. (Matthew 28:18-10). What Piper means to do here is to make a distinction between those who (by call!) stay in one place all there life ( making disciples) and those who leave for the work where the need is great and access is little to none in terms of witness.

    I don't have a missionary calling, even though I did go to missions for 3 years and came back home after that. It's good to make a difference and also, to not let the difference establish spiritual categories in the church, some are hands, other feet, other knees, other any part of the body and all are necessary

    *I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.*
    Galatians 2:20 KJV
    *For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth;* to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
    Romans 1:16 KJV
    *For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.*
    1 Corinthians 1:18 KJV
    For Christ sent me not to baptize, *but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.*
    1 Corinthians 1:17 KJV
    *But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.*
    Galatians 6:14 KJV
    *And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.*
    1 Corinthians 2:1‭-‬5 KJV
    *For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.*

    Dude everyone who is in Christ is to share the Gospel
    All this Churches are full of people that have been going to service every service for years most of the should be pro and mature in the faith to share the Gospel some are just seat warmers
    Most are one pastor churches well while the pastor exhorts the church who exhorts the Pastor
    I wish my church had elder leaders
    My pastor doesn’t even visit my husband
    I have to exhort my Husband my self with all my problems and battles
    My husband thinks Church is something where you can go and talk to God but he doesn’t realize he can talk to him at home he can read at home he waits Sunday’s to learn something and drinks fermented water all week what the heck is up with Christianity here in the US

    @TheMarc0202 5 років тому +3

    I feel like the title of this video should be “we’re not all apostles”.
    We are all disciples, and Jesus told (all) His disciples to go preach the gospel. We do all have different roles within the body, and yes we may all do that in different places, that is what Paul is talking about imo.

    • @thelasthourgetready
      @thelasthourgetready 5 років тому

      Marc van Iwaarden you are absolutely correct. couldnt put it better. the word missionary is not in the bible. a 'mission' trip is basically an evangelistic trip and we are all called to evangelise. in fact if we know people are going to burn in hell for all eternity we shouldnt have to be told

    • @user-oz5of3rp8i
      @user-oz5of3rp8i Місяць тому

      The bible says some are called to be evangelists, some pastors, some teachers etc.
      If everyone is called to be an evangelist, then by that logic everyone is called to be a pastor and teacher too.

    I am a Christian. I am in law enforcement, defensive tactics, and other forms of private protection services. I'm not meant to "spead the gospel". I protect those who do. God has gifted me to specialise mostly in the "physical world". We should not burden those who aren't spreading the gospel 24/7. I am a Lion of God, not a sheep. He does not make us all for the same purposes. Some of Spurgeons quotes are all or nothing. That is not balance

      For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. 4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 6 And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.
      2 Corinthians 10: 3-6

  • @thelasthourgetready
    @thelasthourgetready 5 років тому +3

    dont complicate things we are all called to preach the gospel everywhere. if souls are really going to burn in hell forever we should all be pulling our hair out to go reach them not pray about where we should go. My God if the building is burning down with people in it are we really going to debate over whose job it is to get them out?? this is why the world is not reached with the gospel. the attitude is its always somebody elses job not mine.

    And also most christians today are not even true followers of Jesus they’re hypocrites that’s why Jesus says himself
    ““Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” Matthew‬ ‭7:21‬ ‭NIV‬‬
    So those who live a life of sin werent born again christians from the start
