The last command

Do we know why we’re here? Andrew Murray calls the church away from ‘selfish religion’… Go ye therefore and make disciples of all the nations.’  – Matt. 28:19

How terribly the Church has failed in obeying this command! How many Christians there are who never knew that there is such a command! How many who hear of it, do not in earnest set themselves to obey it! And how many seek to obey it in such way and measure as seems to them fitting and convenient. 

We have studied what obedience is. We have professed to give ourselves up to a whole-hearted obedience. Surely, we are prepared gladly to listen to anything that can help us to understand and carry out this our Lord’s last and great command: the gospel to every creature? Let me explain under the three simple headings: Accept His command. Place yourself entirely at His disposal. Begin at once to live for His kingdom.
