Mark 16:15
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
Not only is it important to preach the gospel, Jesus tells us "Go", this verb is imperative, that is, it is an order or a commandment in itself. But what is the intention to make known the gospel of God; Let's start by quoting what the Bible tells us about it:
Matthew 28:20
and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
It can be seen that we are called to preach the word of God in order to teach everyone that we must keep the commandments. Let's do a deeper analysis about it.
Why should I keep the commandment?
The new birth of which Jesus speaks to Nicodemus John 3 , which he did not really understand what it was about and sometimes many of the believers is something that happens in our mind. If our mind is not renewed, the human being remains a slave to sin, and in this condition he needs the word, so that God may transform it. Let's see what the Bible tells us.
1 John 2: 3-6
3 We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. 4 Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. 5 But if anyone obeys his word, love for God[a] is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: 6 Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.
The importance of Preaching the Gospel is for everyone to know him, Jesus emphasizes the teaching of his commandments, and he quotes Paul's ministry by citing:
Colossians 1:24-25
24 Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. 25 I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness—
Paul told us about the importance of preaching the gospel saying the following:
.
1 Corinthians 9:17
If I preach voluntarily, I have a reward; if not voluntarily, I am simply discharging the trust committed to me.
CONCLUSION
Jesus teaches us that the important thing is Matthew 6:33: "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." , in many churches the additions of God are preached , and we leave aside the truly important, which is Salvation. For this we must obey the word of God and renew our mind.
What is our contribution?
The preaching of the gospel, is the most important according to the scriptures, in order that people know the commandments of God, and be seek to be imitators of Christ.
Prayer :
Father Lord, creator of heaven, we ask that each one of us understand, the importance of carrying your word, wherever we are; in order to be Light to the world, not only for them but for those who believe by hearing from your word, leading them to the knowledge of the truth, so that in this way they are free from the bondage of sin. We ask this in thanksgiving knowing that you have listened to us and we have received it. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen
