Mornings with Mitch

If not you, then who? If not now, then when?

If you are reading this and you have given your life to Jesus Christ, then you have a job to do. We, as the Body of Christ, have a job to do. What is that job? That job is to go into all the world and to make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey whatsoever things He has taught us, and He will be with us always, to the very end of the age. We are on mission for the Lord! So, why then do we sometimes shirk this divine responsibility? What hinders or holds us back from our mission as the Church to go and share the Gospel?! We must recognize and understand that we are plan A, and not plan B. God from the very beginning had in mind for us to go and make disciples of all the nations and to share His good news. If we as His Church will not go, then who will? So, if not you, then who? And if not now, then when?

Now is the time to go! Now is the time to get out there and share the good news! Do not let anything hold you back, let nothing stop you! I challenge and encourage you as I must do the same to be about the business and recognize that we must accept our divine responsibility and that is the Great Commission.

Jesus said in Matthew 28:18-20:

“And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

Brothers and sisters get out there and share the Gospel! The world needs Jesus. If not now, then when? If not us, then who? God bless!
