OUR COMMISSION
Today's reading: Acts 21-22
"You are to take his message everywhere, telling the whole world what you have seen and heard." Acts 22:15 NLT
This verse is taken out of Paul's address to the crowd when he was arrested in Jerusalem.
He was a captive--but he also had a captive audience.
The people were drawn to his words.
To his story.
To his testimony.
To his God.
Paul told the crowd what God asked of him--to go and tell.
It's our commission, too.
Not to go and recite Bible verses.
Not to go and preach hellfire and brimstone.
Not to beat people about the head with our Bibles.
But to tell the world what we have seen and heard--and experienced in Christ.
Our job, as little Christs, is to tell the world what He has done for us!
