Introduction

The McKeown missions week is celebrated in the Church of Pentecost to highlight the activities of missions in the church in order to guide intercession and also raise funds in support of the work. In a circular letter on Missions week dated April 7, 1993, the then Chairman of the church, the late Prophet M. K. Yeboah stated that “the indicators flash out the signal, ‘the Lord’s coming is near’ and we must strain every nerve, invest the last pesewa, for this gospel of the kingdom to be preached throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations…” The urgency of the need to reach all people groups with the gospel requires the support of everyone in the church.

Questions for Discussion

1.     Describe the composition of the multitude before the throne. verse 9
2.      What was the multitude doing before the throne? verse 10
3.      What is God’s ultimate purpose for mankind? (1 Tim. 2: 3-4)
4.      How can all nations, tribes and languages be represented at the throne?
5.      What has been your personal contribution to this?

Conclusion

God has a plan for mankind. This is to redeem mankind from the consequences of the fall of man in the Garden of Eden. Ultimately, this plan will climax in the gathering of people of every tongue before God for a life of eternity (Rev 7: 9-12). However, there still remains a significant number of people groups who have not yet heard the gospel. Thus, every member of the church is being called upon to do three main things for the church’s missions effort: pray every day for the success of missions, give generously toward missions effort, and evangelise and bring souls to Christ. We cannot do one and abandon the others. We are to do all three, Pray, Give and Evangelise (PGE). Let this be your slogan throughout the McKeown week.

THE CHURCH OF PENTECOST – 2018 HOME CELL OUTLINE

WEEK 10 – SUNDAY EVENING, MARCH 11, 2018.

TOPIC: THE GREAT COMMISSION: GO PREACH

Review of Previous Lesson (5 Minutes)

a.       What did you learn from the previous lesson?
b.      How did you apply it to your life?

Main Text: Matthew 4:13-25

Memory Verse: From that time on Jesus began to preach, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near. – Matthew 4:17

Introduction

Evangelism is one of the most important businesses in the sight of God. It has always been one of His avenues for delivering people from the bondage of Satan. Jesus Christ was so determined that every single person would hear the Gospel (good news). He was the Light shining in darkness and the focus of His preaching was the Kingdom of Heaven. He taught people to change their minds; He preached to get them heavenly minded, and healed them to make them whole. He also called people and discipled them to reach out to others who were lost. This is the main duty of every believer.

Questions for Discussion

1.    What was the message of Jesus when He moved residence from Nazareth to Capernaum? Verse 17
2.    What method did Jesus use to spread the gospel? Verses 18,19,23
3.    How do we obey the command to spread the gospel?
4.    How often should signs and wonders follow the preaching of the gospel? Mark 16:17; Acts 8:37- 40; Acts 14:3

Conclusion

The duty of human beings is to do the will of God and to finish it. It has been said that it matters to God what we preach and how we preach it. Nobody has the right to preach anything and anyhow. We are supposed to preach the Good News with power, passion and precision. If this is done in the name of the Lord, then miracles, signs and wonders shall follow our preaching. May the Lord do with us what He desires as we decide to follow Him.
