1 Memory Verse: “ And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:20

2  1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,  2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:  3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:  4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.  5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.  6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?  7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.  8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

3  We were able to discover from our last study that the gospel preacher must be full of divine wisdom, compassionate and empowered by the Holy Spirit.  He or she is equipped, without doubt to preach anywhere and everywhere though persecuted. May the Holy Spirit bless us as we study at HIS feet today, in the name of JESUS CHRIST

4  Anywhere and Everywhere  The vision of the LORD JESUS CHRIST is that the Church grows without limit and occupies the whole world. Acts 1:8  The gospel can be preached in:  Villages and big cities - Acts 26:11, Acts 16:12  Across culture and coasts - Acts 16:26-33  In prisons and palaces – Acts 16:26-33  All over the world (everywhere we find ourselves) Matt. 5:14

5  Daniel prophesied that knowledge shall increase. Dan 12:4  The increase knowledge should be used to propagate the gospel  The gospel can be preaches in print and electronic media.  The printed message enjoys advantages of longevity just as the Bible has been written over 2000 years ago – John 20:31-32, 2 Tim 3:16- 17

6  Preacher of the gospel will surely be persecuted. Matt 10: 16-18  Such persecution always opens up preaching of the gospel in unreached areas. Acts 8:1-5, Acts 9:20-28  The gospel preacher will be highly rewarded by the LORD. Dan 12:3, Proverbs 11:30

7  The LORD wants you and me to be bearers of the gospel. Please preach on without delay. The reward is great.  The true believer in CHRIST is inexcusable as far as the preaching of the gospel is concerned. Therefore, let us watch out for all opportunities or create some ourselves to preach the gospel – Mt. 10:22,39, 1 Cor 4:10, 2 Cor 4:11, Rev 22:12: Rev. 20:4
