Bible Baptist Church of Plattsburgh, New York

MISSIONARIES

And he (Jesus) said unto them, "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." Mark 16:15 and "As my Father hath sent me, even so send I you." John 20:21

Part of the Great Commission

given to the church in the new testament is the responsibility to preach the gospel to all the world. Just as the Lord provides all our needs, He has provided messengers for this important duty also. They are called Missionaries. Although these missionaries travel all over the world, their jobs are not glamorous or fun. They don't travel first class, nor do they have to pace the floor trying to decide what clothes to take with them. On the contrary. Their belongings are few, the most precious one being their Bible. Many work in remote areas where disease, hunger, and language barriers are just some of the problems. Some missionaries go into countries where Christianity is against the law. Even carrying a Bible is punishable! Why do people give up everything and live on the brink of poverty (if not in poverty), depending on churches and the generosity of strangers to take on such a challenge? Oh, I'm sure each one will have a different personal story, but as I look through Chapter 8 of Romans, I feel drawn to these particular verses: Vs.18 - For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Vs.28 - And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose.
