The Great Commission
-
Matthew 28:19,20 - :
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe
all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway,
even unto the end of the world. Amen.
-
Mark 16:14-20 - Afterward
he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with
their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which
had seen him after he was risen. And he said unto them, Go ye into all
the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and
is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
-
And these signs shall follow them that believe;
In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall
not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
-
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them,
he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
-
And they went forth, and preached every where,
the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following.
Amen.

take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or,

things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and
all these things shall be added unto you.

I Thessalonians 2:14-18 -
For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea
are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own
countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus,
and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God,
and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that
they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come
upon them to the uttermost.
-
But we, brethren, being taken from you for
a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly
to see your face with great desire. Wherefore we would have come unto you,
even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
