"Go ye into all the world and preach the GoodNews to everyone"
Mk 16:16
The harsh truth about us all is our handicap of sin. God is concerned about that. Governments and their laws can penalize human failure, but cannot cure the cause. Jesus alone touches the deep springs of our personality. No one else has ever said, “Son, your sins are forgiven. Get up, take your mat and walk” (
Mk 2:9).
Nor has anyone else ever said, “Go into all the world and preach the good news. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved” (
Mk 16:16). There is no other good news than the gospel of salvation.
As soon as we take an interest in soul-winning, God takes an interest in us.
We become people after his own heart. There is more to God than making mountains and stars, although he has done that, too. His priority is people. He runs the whole universe with a saving objective.
Our troubles trouble him and he calls us to share his concern. That is our Great Commission. We are all called to witness and preach the Gospel, to stand up, speak up and never shut up.
