Matthew 28:19-20-“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 everything I have commanded you.” Acts 26:15-16 ..."'Who are You, Lord?’ And the Lord replied: ‘I am Jesus, the One you are persecuting… But get up and stand on your feet. For I have appeared to you for this purpose’"... Our Sermon In A Sentence: We become more effective disciple makers only as we live our lives according to God’s strategic purpose.
Jesus’ Plan For Gospel Penetration:
He purposes the setbacks in our life
He arranges our people encounters
He uses our witness to open their eyes
He forgives & grants an inheritance
Luke 21:12 “They will lay their hands on you and persecute you. They will hand you over to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors because of My name.”
