ALIENS CARRYING THE GOSPEL



It was a Jew who brought the Gospel to Rome; a Roman who took it to France; a Frenchman who took it to Scandinavia; a Scandinavian who took it to Scotland; a Scotsman who evangelized Ireland, and an Irishman in turn made the missionary conquest of Scotland.

No people ever received the Gospel except at the hands of an alien.

“To evangelize is to spread the good news that Jesus Christ died for our sins and was raised from the dead according to the Scriptures, and that as the reigning Lord He now offers the forgiveness of sins and the liberating gift of the Spirit to all who repent and believe.” - John Stott.

Then Jesus said to them, “Go into every part of the world. Tell the good news to everyone.” (Mk 16:15 WE)

“Evangelism is not a professional job for a few trained men, but is instead the persistent responsibility of every person who belongs to the company of Jesus.” - Elton Trueblood.
