ONE HEARTBEAT AWAY
PART 126
(copied from Mark Cahill's Book)
Remember, Jesus has not asked us to reach the
lost. He has not made it an option. He has commanded us to reach the lost. Think about
that while you read His words on the subject:
"And He said unto them, 'go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature.
He that believeth and is baptized shall be
saved, but he that believeth not shall be
damned.' "
(Mark 16: 15-16)
There are two things we need to notice here.
One is that believers are commanded to go
and preach the gospel. "to every creature." Another is that anyone who believes what they
are told about the good news, will go to heaven, while those who reject what they are told will go to hell.
In the military if you disobey
the order of a commander,
it is called "insubordination."
If you take the authority away
from the captain of a ship, it is called "mutiny." What is
it called to disobey, the Commander, Captain
and Savior of all creation?
We shouldn't even begin to think about it. Just obey Him and reach the lost.
