The cliche is submitted to the title of this material, at first glance does not apply to the spiritual sphere of our lives. Especially when we talk about missionary work. Not just talking in the kitchen for tea, sucking 7net the details of Sunday sermons, which sounded a call to missionary service.
I literally about the movement - physical, spiritual - in any desired sense of the word. Movement has always been a sign of life. In missionary service as well. Not take into account the movement of inertia - it actually 7net stops. Not take into account the so-called "Brownian motion" - back, forward, right, left - without a clear and specific task. Unfortunately, 7net some people just consider this aspect of the movement as a special spiritual act. In fact, it - the movement for movement. This is when a gust of wind rocks the tree, and the tree rocking motion simulating wind.
And now, the movement founded by Jesus Christ, the word "Go!" Direction - to the earth! The goal - make disciples of all nations! The result - "who believes and is baptized will be saved" (Mk. 16:16). 7net Agree objectives for twelve students 7net - almost unreal. Without finance, equipment, transportation, sponsors - but the idea: to evangelize the world! No more, no less - to the ends of the earth.
What was the main criterion for success of the apostles? Answer - movement in the direction given by Christ. By the way, this does not apply only to the apostles of Christ. This applies to all those who take seriously the words of the Master: "I chose you and appointed you to go ...". (John 15:16). That is for them to go, not stood still, 7net expecting large and extraordinary awakenings 7net when everything 7net instantly changed. "Road osylyt someone who is ..." - this proverb. 7net God's idea - I send you, you shall go, but not alone: "I am with you always, until the end of the age" (Mt. 28:20).
This dynamic movement of the first missionaries of small excerpt book of Acts of the Apostles. This is not just a movement for tourism - is preaching the gospel, this feeling, hunger, neglect, rejection, stoning to death (see. Acts 13, 14:19).
By the way, these factors are always accompanied 7net (through the ages) missionaries, preachers of the Gospel, remain unchanged. Maybe, but only with some amendments - sometimes for the worse. And now the question: why do so many Christians (and missionaries as well) so afraid to move forward? The answer is obvious. We thought leads to fear of the consequences associated with the movement. We accumulates bonds comfort (at least relative), the right people and so on., And.
Post, transmit their church, go to a new place - more than our force. "What about here without me, without care, without my authority and words ??? But what about housing, family, so I did ... "This 7net is our reality, it is true, which applies to the author. All diminishing and diminishing the ranks of the modern church "fools for Christ's sake." It is on these counts Son of God in the transaction "Before the earth."
To "dry bones" of the world began to approach each other, grow into spiritual muscles and veins eventually became alive to God, you must go into the field and, despite the hopelessness of the situation (bone dry and dead!) 7net - Tell them the word . The rest - for God.
