Mission Mandate

Mission mandate Acts 1: 1-11, Matthew 28:16-20 by Pastor Cor Pool
* Sermon notes

Evangelism- not everyone is gifted with evangelism but we all do have the
responsibility to be a witness for Christ.

"And you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria,
and to the ends of the earth."

Jerusalum- start with the people closest to you
Judea and Samaria- beyond the comfort zone, people that are different than
you.
End of the earth- go everywhere, Global Mission

- Finish the missions that Jesus has started, there is no "Plan B" in the
missions of Jesus Christ.
- Americans are more interested in spiritual things now than they were 10
years ago. 65 million people do not belong to a church. 34 million people
said that they would go to a church if someone invited them.
- 2 Peter 3:9
- Our mission here on earth has eternal consequences, sometimes that means
stepping out and taking a risk.
- We know the path to salavtion, why would we not want to share that with
other?
- We are called to be bridges to people not walls, we need to reach other
that may be different than us.
- Reach out to the homeless, the loveless in their plight.
- Are you fishing for men, if not, everyone deserves to hear The Word of
Christ.
- Is anyone going to be in heaven because of you? Is anyone going to say
Thank You for sharing your faith with me?
