We are commanded to go and tell everyone.

We know what a difference it makes to others when we reach out to them.
We know that it is best for us to go and to be involved in the mission of telling everyone.
We continually say that we are going to do everything we can to tell everyone.

Are We Doing It?
Which part do you play in, "going" or "sending"

For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took the bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and says, " In the same way after supper he took the cup, saying "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me,"for whenever you eat this bead, and drink it, in remembrance of me." For whenever you eat this bed, and drink this cup , you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

The Lord's speaks for things:
Bread - The church
Cup - for ikut Forgives of sin
Jesus death
Jesus return

1 Corinthias 11:23-32
