Stay and Radiate

Have you ever thought about God's complete ability to do anything, however He deems fit; and to be capable of accomplishing His purpose in the way He chooses? An example would be that God could have put His Word in every rock, and all we would have to do is put it to our head; and we would see and understand in living 3D all that is written in the Bible - yet he chose to record in in written language for us to read.

When it comes to the Great Commission, God could have also said "Stay and Radiate". He could have only required that we live a "good" Christian life and as people viewed us they would be convicted of their need for Jesus.

But, God did not command that - He said "Go", we are to be intentional about going to the lost world (not just hoping they come to us). And He said "Preach", speak verbally the Gospel to those we go to (not just hoping they will believe through "lifestyle evangelism")

Mark 16:15
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

  1. And He commands us to "Go and preach" because He knows what needs to be done and the way to do it. Who are we to argue?

    If He is not our Lord, then He is not our Savior either. And if He is our Lord, we will obey Him.
