Bible Verses: Acts 13:1-3, Acts 14:8-28
Introduction:
God sent out some of the first missionaries through His Church. These missionaries were committed to following Jesus wherever He led them, even if that meant facing opposition to and suffering for the gospel message they proclaimed. God used these missionaries not only to bring others into His family but also to strengthen and encourage the church itself as they saw God at work.
Theological Theme:
God’s kingdom expands through mission to the unreached.
Christ Connection:
Jesus told His disciples that the gates of hell would not prevail against His church. This image helps us see God’s people as “on offense,” taking the powerful and good news of Jesus to places of deep spiritual darkness with full confidence that Jesus will build His church.
Missional Application:
God-Father-Son-and-Spirit calls His Church to send and support missionaries to those who have never heard the gospel.
