Making a Mockery of the Great Commission

David Alan Black / Dave Black Online:
Our business as Christians is to make disciples of all nations. That's what we're here for. By life or by death, by what we do and do not do, in body and in spirit, our business is to work for the expansion of God's kingdom on earth. It is easily possible for us to so focus on our own little communities of faith that we come dangerously close to making a mockery of the Great Commission. Such an attitude is a serious symptom. It reveals a growing disease of the spirit that could become an incurable malignancy. Churches that are in this in-grown state are not concerned about it. There is no doubt about the crisis but our conduct is not rising to the occasion.
