Mark 16: 15 shows that the great commission does not exclude any race, above shared testimony is very encouraging, despite the fact that government of the land had planned to deport this man of God, the lord made it even easier by ensuring that Members of the parliament became members of his church in a society where blacks are not regarded, they referred to him as a ‘chocolate Rabbit’ , sacrifice of wanting to be involved in outreach , Planting a church, The Almighty used the lawmakers to ensure that the man of God was given the resident permit for the furtherance of the Gospel in that communist nation.

    The site that I visited was Mercy Hill Church in Greensboro, NC. I went to a sermon, with some friends, that took place on a Sunday night. When we arrived at the church, we stayed together and observed the site. The members of this church all seemed to be within their twenties and thirties; there were a few younger children and a few older women and men, but not many. Most of these people seemed to be from Christian ethnic backgrounds or just unaffiliated with any ethnicity.…

    Art As Protestant Propaganda When looking at the piece, Two Kinds of Preaching: Evangelical and Papal by Lucas Cranach the younger, you can observe many things. You can observe differences between the crowds surrounding the pulpits on each side of the piece. You can also observe different views of the bible. You can see differences and similarities in the attire of the clergy, and you can also view and determine Catholic Church abuses. To begin, in the Protestant (right) side of the illustration, the people surrounding the pulpit can be seen drinking wine and having the communion wafer.…

    Week Three Devotional God is in the people business and the command is simple; go, baptize, and teach. Why? Because Jesus, being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God, said so. The slave is not greater than the Master and as His bond servants, our obedience is not optional but is a requirement. “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” (Rom 10:17 KJV). It seems that as we get older we become our hearing diminishes.…

This is what Roberts calls the Proclaimed Kingdom, for Acts 1:4, 8, says, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Jesus commands them to spread his word, to tell all nations about the good news of salvation. Jesus says in Matthew 28:19-20, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.…

    The sixth reading in chapter one of our texts Pursuing Happiness, edited by Matthew Parfitt and Dawn Skorczewski, presents material translated from The Gospel of Matthew. I studied sources to find out more about this ancient text, and in the paragraphs below. I am going to talk about to whom the book of Matthew written to, who was Matthew as an apostle, and what he accomplished by his gospel. Matthew was one of the twelve apostles chosen by Jesus Christ himself and is the first Chapter in the Christianity bible, although those that stress Matthew’s alleged dependence on Mark for a substantial part of his gospel.

    The Preface of N.T. Wright's book, The Challenge of Jesus: Rediscovering Who Jesus Was and Is, explains what Wright's intent and purposes were for writing this book.

He claims that people need to analyze who Jesus really was and what his teachings really meant to fully grasp his purpose on Earth and how it affects humans in today's modern society.…

    The continual outreach to a fellow group member keeps them comforted and aware that they are not alone and they have an entire group helping, encouraging and rooting for the work that they are doing. The outreach to the ‘non-believers’ in the community is a vital part of a religion’s outreach and growth. With the use of technology, faith groups can reach more people in more ways than ever before through television programs, radio channels, podcasts, and media broadcasts. As Dale B.

Earlier evangelists…were more restricted in their outreach during their crusades because of the lack of technology in their time.…
