Excerpt16 - The Church - The Evangelistic Church

In Acts 27:1-44 Paul was the insurance policy for all
on board. We have been spiritually satisfied with so little
for so long,
when there is so much land for us to possess! 0 for a thousand tongues to speak of Him,
0 for a thousand hearts to love Him,
0 for a thousand minds to think of Him,
0 for a thousand wills to surrender to Him,
0 for a thousand lives to serve Him. It is not always easy to do God’s will,
but it is always possible. Mercy is love in action. Believers should not need to be corralled in a
church building once a week
to be stirred on behalf of lost men. Millions of dollars have been raised "for missions"
because the preachers have said that
the last great commandment of Jesus to the
Church was, "Go ye into all the world and
preach the Gospel." NOT SO! The first (Matthew 4:17)
and the last great word of Christ to His
church was "REPENT" (Revelation 2:5; Revelation 3:19)!
