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…
(Matthew 28:19-20)
What is our strength in the ability and confidence to deliver the good news message of Jesus?
Define Faithfulness, (Gk) Pistos, “trustworthy, believing, sure or true” – Strongs Dictionary
There are many different ways to “GO”, but however we try to deliver the good news, in some way, we are becoming a good news bringer, which is the root definition of an Evangelist, (Gk) Euaggelistes, “preacher” – Strongs Dictionary. Or “messenger of good news, a title given to messengers who were not apostles in the New Testament” – Thayers Dictionary. The Greek verb is “Euaggelizo, “to preach or bring or announce good news” – Thayers Dictionary.
The method of learning how to catch people spiritually is to imitate Jesus as best you can. Jesus said, “Follow Me”. What would Jesus say, if he met a visitor in the assembly? Some of us do not feel confident enough about our faith, to put ourselves in the Master’s shoes, in order to try to emulate Him. So we need to get to know our “net”, (The Gospel), in order to use it well.
The Gospel of God, 1st Peter 4:17. Is about how good God is and how much we need Him.
The Gospel of the grace of God, Acts 20:24. Is about how God treats us like as if we had no sin!
The Gospel of your salvation, Ephesians 1:13. Is about the many ways and means of His deliverance of our soul into eternal life, see Philippians 2:12.
The Gospel of peace, Ephesians 6:15. Is about how God makes friends with all of us, even though we were at one time, his enemies against Him. Ephesians 2:14.
The Gospel for the circumcised and the gospel for the uncircumcised, Galatians 2:7. Is about how God never plays favorites and shows no partiality to race, nationality or culture. See Colossians 3:9-11
The Glorious Gospel of the Blessed God, 1st TImothy 1:11 & 2nd Corinthians 4:4-6
How do we talk about the Good News from God? Do we pray about sharing these truths?
