Searching the Scripture

Lesson 15 The Commands of CHRIST

Part 7

We have come to the last part of lesson 15 as we look at the commands of CHRIST for HIS followers.

19. Preaching the Gospel

Each and every Christian, regardless of age, gender, position, wealth, or education, is to preach the Gospel wherever he is.

Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Luke 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

John 21:15-17 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.
He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.


20. Prepared for the Second Coming of CHRIST

CHRIST´s return could occur at any moment and we as Christians must be ready.

Luke 12:40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.

21. Faithful unto Death

The Christian cannot be on again - off again. We must remain faithful until the end.

Matthew 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.



¨¨¨¨
During this lesson we have looked at 21 of CHRIST´s commands to us as Christians. We should use these commands as a check list of our personal lives before GOD. JESUS gave these commands to us as a guide to follow.

John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
