And He said to them, “ Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned. These signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” So then, when the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed.] [And they promptly reported all these instructions to Peter and his companions. And after that, Jesus Himself sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.]
If you are a follower of Christ Jesus, then you are commanded to proclaim Him to everyone. If you are not a follower, then you need to listen to the words of those who have been sent into the world to proclaim the Gospel of forgiveness in Jesus Christ. If you don’t, you are declared condemned by Jesus so that not only will you not have a peaceful death, but will be tormented eternally. Where there is not forgiveness, there is unforgiveness and the judgment that follows.
Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, for those who cannot believe, draw them to Yourself so that they can see. Show them the mighty works and words that cannot be denied and bring others into their lives to lead them to You. In Your holy name I pray Amen.
