INTO ALL THE WORLD

Scripture: Mark 16:15 “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”

     I want to share with you a few people who have taken that Scripture to literally mean them and have gone into some of the most remote places in this world to carry the gospel message. Jesus came all the way from glory to make it possible, yet there are still those that won’t walk across the street to share the message that Jesus saves.
     William Carey is known as the father of modern missions. He was an English missionary who went to India. He was a self-motivated learner and he taught himself Latin, Hebrew and Greek. He translated portions of the Bible in many languages. He founded the Baptist Missionary Society and was instrumental in influencing many other missionaries to the foreign field.
     Adoniram Judson was a Baptist missionary who became the first North American Protestant missionary in Burma. He too was involved in translation work and church planting. He went to India as a missionary, but later moved to Burma. It took him 12 years before he saw his first 18 converts. Could you stay faithful in preaching the gospel without results for that long? By the time of his death he had established 100 churches with over 8,000 members.
     David Livingstone was a medical missionary with the London Missionary Society. He was born in Scotland in 1813, but spent most of his life in Africa as an explorer and doctor. Livingstone loved the Lord and he used his understanding of nature and science to help map much of southern Africa. God used his life to open many doors for the Gospel.
     These men answered the call to go and they went and preached the gospel to the lost. They saw many precious souls come to know the Lord. What about you dear friend? Would you be willing to answer the call to go and take the Gospel to those who have never heard?
