Why is it Important to Share the Gospel?

Why is it important to share The Gospel, with your family and friends? Have YOU ever thought about this question? Well, I’m going to try to give YOU a few reasons why, it’s extremely important.

1 The Great Commission
Jesus Christ said, “Go therefore, into All the World and Preach The Gospel, make Disciples of all the nations, Baptizing them in The Name of The Father and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit. Teaching them to observe All things that I have commanded YOU. He who Believes and is Baptized will be Saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.”

2 Did YOU know, that over 90% of Church Members believe it’s their Pastor’s job, to lead people to Christ, meaning they believe, it’s not their job. It’s not only your Pastor’s job to lead people to Christ, it’s your Pastor’s job to teach his congregation, to lead people to Christ, meaning each and every one of YOU!

3 We All have friends and family, and We want All of them to go to Heaven. Well, if Our Pastor never meets any of them, whose going to talk to them, and lead them to Christ? If We don’t tell them, who will?

4 I always think of "Lazarus and the rich man", how the rich man could look across The Great Gulf and see Lazarus in Abraham's bosom, asking Father Abraham to send Lazarus to his brothers, so they don't receive the same fate. Well, imagine if the people YOU encounter, could see across The Great Gulf, and see YOU in Abraham's bosom, and yell across it, asking why YOU didn't tell them? I don't want anyone to be able to ask this of me.

As Believers, in God Almighty and The Lord Jesus Christ, We take upon Ourselves the mantle, The Cross, the obligation, of sharing The Gospel of Jesus Christ, with everyone. Which includes: family, friends, Church family, neighbors, and strangers, basically, every person We encounter. We are Jesus’ Light upon the World, and as His Disciples, We are called upon to go and make Disciples of All the Nations of the World. This is a privilege, We should eagerly look forward to this opportunity, to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, that everyone has been given a Great Gift, the chance for Eternal Life, in God’s Immediate Presence, with The Lord Jesus Christ, for Eternity. My prayer for YOU, is that YOU look at sharing The Gospel, with great enthusiasm, something that will truly chance someone’s Life, for Eternity. Amen.
