The Message<\/strong><\/p>

\u201cFor I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, \u201cThe righteous shall live by faith.\u201d
Romans 1:16-17<\/em><\/p>

The Mandate<\/strong><\/p>

\u201cAnd Jesus came and said to them, \u201cAll authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples\u00a0of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of\u00a0the 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.\u201d
Matthew 28:18-20<\/em><\/p>

The Mission<\/strong><\/p>

\u201cBut you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon\u00a0you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.\u201d
Acts 1:8<\/em><\/p>

The Multiplication<\/strong><\/p>

\u201c…what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.\u201d
2 Timothy 2:2<\/p>

The Method<\/strong><\/p>

\u201cAnd they devoted themselves to the apostles\u2019 teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe\u00a0came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being\u00a0done through the apostles. And all who believed were together\u00a0and had all things in common. And they were selling their\u00a0possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all,\u00a0as any had need. And day by day, attending the temple together\u00a0and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with\u00a0glad and generous hearts, praising God and having favor with all\u00a0the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those\u00a0who were being saved.\u201d
