go

Luke 24:47 With My authority, take this message of repentance to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem: there is forgiveness for all who turn to Me.


Jesus is all about "go"

He doesn't want us to sit around and bask in the "sweet, sweet spirit in this place".

Once we become His followers, it quits being all about us, becomes all about "them" - those who don't know Him.

We erroneously think that now that we're "written in the Lamb's book of life" that our responsibility now ceases.

Nope.

It only increases.

Jesus was very specific - go.

And go to a world who is going to hell in a hand basket by starting to reach out to people right where you are,right now.

Yes,I think eventually we will be compelled to go elsewhere, within the bounds of our country, or even overseas.

But Jesus always indicated the first mission field we should encounter is the one right at hand.

But let's remember just perhaps the most important thing,which is becoming more antithetical as we middle class Christians accrue a more comfortable life - the operative word from Jesus for all of us is a 2 letter word - GO!
