GO YE TO THE WORLD AND TESTIFY, WITNESS AND PROCLAIM THE TRUE GODPEL WHICH IS SALVATION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH, AND NOT OF SELF EFFORT PERFORMANCE. Rom:1:16-17:For I am not ashamed of the Gospel (good news) {of Christ,} for it is Gods power working unto salvation [for deliverance from eternal death] to everyone who believes {with} a personal trust {and} a confident surrender {and} firm reliance, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, For in the Gospel a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith]. As it is written, The man who through faith is just {and} upright shall live {and} shall live by faith. THE TRUE GOSPEL OF GRACE IS BY PROCLAIMING THAT IN CHRIST ALONE SALVATION IS FOUND AND NO IN OTHER MEANS. Acts:4:12 And there is salvation in {and} through no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by {and} in which we must be saved. John:14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me. EVERY BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN HAS BEING COMMISSIONED FOR THE GREAT COMMISSION, WHICH IS TO BE A WITNESS OF THE FINISHED WORK OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. Matt:28:18-20:Jesus approached and, breaking the silence, said to them, All authority (all power of rule) in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you, and behold, I am with you all the days (perpetually, uniformly, and on every occasion), to the [very] close {and} consummation of the age. {Amen (so let it be).} Mark:16:15-18: And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach {and} publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race]. He who believes [who adheres to and trusts in and relies on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] and is baptized will be saved [from the penalty of eternal death]; but he who does not believe [who does not adhere to and trust in and rely on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets forth] will be condemned. And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe: in My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages; They will pick up serpents; and [even] if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well. AS A TRUE BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN, THE ONLY MINISTRY THAT IS COMMITTED TO IS A MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION. TELLING THE WORKD THAT GOD IS NOT ANGRY WITH THEM, BUT LOVED THEM NOT TO PERISH THROUGH THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH..2Cor:5:18-20: But all things are from God, Who through {Jesus} Christ reconciled us to Himself [received us into favor, brought us into harmony with Himself] and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation [that by word and deed we might aim to bring others into harmony with Him]. It was God [personally present] in Christ, reconciling {and} restoring the world to favor with Himself, not counting up {and} holding against [men] their trespasses [but cancelling them], and committing to us the message of reconciliation (of the restoration to favor). So we are Christs ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christs personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] {and} be reconciled to God. GOD IS COUNTING ON EVERY ONE OF US TO ALLOW THE HOLY SPIRIT TO WITNESS, TESTIFY, AND PROCLAIM THE TRUE GOSPEL THROUGH US. Matt:24:14 And this good news of the kingdom (the Gospel) will be preached throughout the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then will come the end. IF ANY ONE SHOULD PREACH ANYTHING APART FROM SALVATION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH, THERE IS A CURSE WAITING FOR THEM. Gal:1:6-9: I am surprised {and} astonished that you are so quickly turning renegade {and} deserting Him Who invited {and} called you by the grace (unmerited favor) of Christ (the Messiah) [and that you are transferring your allegiance] to a different [even an opposition] gospel. Not that there is [or could be] any other [genuine Gospel], but there are [obviously] some who are troubling {and} disturbing {and} bewildering you [with a different kind of teaching which they offer as a gospel] and want to pervert {and} distort the Gospel of Christ (the Messiah) [into something which it absolutely is not]. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to {and} different from that which we preached to you, let him be accursed (anathema, devoted to destruction, doomed to eternal punishment)! As we said before, so I now say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel different from {or} contrary to that which you received [from us], let him be accursed (anathema, devoted to destruction, doomed to eternal punishment)! IT IS ALL GRACE THROUGH FAITH: Eph:2:8 For it is by free grace (Gods unmerited favor) that you are saved (delivered from judgment {and} made partakers of Christs salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God; Not because of works [not the fulfillment of the Laws demands], lest any man should boast. [It is not the result of what anyone can possibly do, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.] 2Tim:1:9 [For it is He] Who delivered {and} saved us and called us with a calling in itself holy {and} leading to holiness [to a life of consecration, a vocation of holiness]; [He did it] not because of anything of merit that we have done, but because of {and} to further His own purpose and grace (unmerited favor) which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began [eternal ages ago]. IT IS A FREE GIFT, BUT VERY COSTLY! IT COST OUR HEAVENLY FATHER HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON FOR OUR SALVATION, THAT IS WHY THERE WILL NEVER BE ANY OTHER MEANS TO SALVATION EXCEPT THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. Rom:5:8 But God shows {and} clearly proves His [own] love for us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) died for us. 1John:5:10-13: He who believes in the Son of God [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Him] has the testimony [possesses this divine attestation] within himself. He who does not believe God [in this way] has made Him out to be {and} represented Him as a liar, because he has not believed (put his faith in, adhered to, and relied on) the evidence (the testimony) that God has borne regarding His Son. And this is that testimony (that evidence): God gave us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who possesses the Son has that life; he who does not possess the Son of God does not have that life. I write this to you who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) the name of the Son of God [in the peculiar services and blessings conferred by Him on men], so that you may know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have life, yes, eternal life.
