Proclaim the gospel to the whole world!

“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” (Matt. 24:14)

Jesus said a lot of things would happen before He returned. One of the final things is that the gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world just before His return. In today's world, we have so many more tools at our disposal that we can use to do this. For instance, you read repeatedly about people who have millions of followers on social media, but it is usually for other things rather than promoting Christ. But it could easily be used to promote the gospel. Even though most don't have millions following them, most have a pretty good number of family and friends. Plus, there are all the other forms of sharing information—some old, some new—such as letter writing, phone calls, texting, email, or just plain speaking to people you come in contact with. We all can work in some way or other to promote the gospel and be a part of Jesus’s command to go and share it with everyone.

“And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.” (Mark. 15:16 ESV)

How will they know without someone preaching?

You may be the only connection through which some people you know will hear the gospel. They may not attend church or have born-again friends, so you may be the one God wishes to use to reach them with the good news. Don’t neglect sharing with them, it may even be God’s assignment for you.

“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?” (Rom. 10:14 ESV)

And Jesus is with you

 “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.” (Matt. 28:19:20 ESV)

The Holy Spirit will give you power to be witnesses to the end of the earth

“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.” (Acts 1:8 ESV)

You can say, “Here I am! Send me”

“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” (Isa. 6:8 ESV)
