• 马太福音 28:19

所以，你们要去，使万民作我的门徒，奉父、子、圣灵的名给他们施洗，凡我所吩咐你们的，都教导他们遵守。看哪，我天天与你们同在，直到世代的终结。”

• 使徒行传 1:8

但圣灵降临在你们身上，你们就必得着能力，并要在耶路撒冷、犹太全地和撒玛利亚，直到地极，作我的见证。”

马太福音28:19-20简明扼要地描述我们的工作——使万民成为门徒，给他们施洗归入信仰，并教导他们认识耶稣。祂建立了教会作为培养门徒的首要方式。如果我们不向亲友们发出邀请，他们就很难经历到祂。我们正是为了让人经历上帝才建立教会的，我们也是为此而存在。我们若纠缠于“教会文化”的任何其他外围的事情，那么就偏离了重心。与其争论在教会中什么才对我们最好或我们最想要的是什么，不如集中精力在那些还没有经历到上帝的爱的人们身上吧！

• 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. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

• Acts 1:8

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.”

Talking to Your Friends about Jesus Plain and simple, here is our job – make disciples from all nations, baptizing them into the faith, and teaching them about Jesus. He established the church as the primary form of making disciples, and our friends and family most likely will not experience God unless they are invited to experience Him. This is why we do church, and this is why we exist. When we get wrapped up in everything else that surrounds the 'church culture' we've lost the point. Instead of arguing about what's best for us at church and what we want, let's focus our efforts on those people who haven't even experienced God's love yet!

本周就邀请人来教会吧。
