A real life super bowl.   (The missionaries: Witnessing or Living the Life.)

Our Mission is to live our lives every day,

so that others can see Christ living in us.

 

Mark 16:15 (KJS) And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. 19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. 20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with [them], and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

 

1.  Hear the command

This is the calling from the Lord. 

 

2.  See the results:

Those who believe and is baptized shall be saved those who won’t will be lost.

 

3.  Experience the Power:

Those who go will be given special power and protection to verify the truth of the one true living God.

 

4.  These are the witnesses: 

These are true supermen and superwomen.  They heard the call, They believed in the results and they experienced the power. 

 

What powers do you have as a believer in the one true living God? 

 

I.  Power to live with God – who sits on the throne.

 

II.  Power to go across enemy lines.

 

III.  Power to survive attacks from the enemy.

 

IV.  Power to show whom God is and he is alive.  This is supernatural power to love, to cast out the devil, and live the life. 

 

V.  Power to speak the language.  This is God’s language of love to those who don’t understand what real love is.

 

VI.  Power to Heal Sick:  Spiritually, Physically, and emotionally.  He can still raise the dead. 

 

VII.  Power to Go to preach and confirm the word of God with the signs of the supernatural power of God to prove what we say.
