Jesus’ Commission, or Western Traditions?
So may our churches, Bible Schools
Seminaries, obey Jesus’ mission
Start equipping, train ALL Believers
To fulfill, Jesus’ Great Commission.
Seminaries or Cemeteries?
So, in place of ‘higher learning’
Seminaries, Bible schools
We should focus, on Jesus’ command
On ‘Disciple-making,’ we can’t improve.
Pew Sitting, or Disciple Making?
So pray God, stir our churches
Seminaries, bible schools
Learn the ‘how-to’, of disciple-making
Outside the classroom… spread Good News.
Be His Faithful Witness
May our praying be persistent
And thro’ our going, and giving
Make disciples and teach them
Obey God’s Word, in daily living.
Who Runs Your Church?
So pray, that ‘sitting’ churches
Obey Jesus, ‘tis His will
Daily outreach, reproducing
His Great Commission, to fulfill.
‘Fishing’ or ‘Sitting’ Churches?
So pray, that ‘sitting’ churches
Obey Jesus, ‘tis His will
Daily outreach, reproducing
His Great Commission, to fulfill.
Shame on Us!
Let us go forth, and obey
A fear of God, not man
Follow Jesus, His commands
His Great Commission, His plan.
Laypeople or Priests?
With each member, of His Body
To be equipped, and taught
For the work of the ministry
Yet this vision, is rarely caught.
Adding or Multiplying?
Sadly, leaders look to adding
Are not mentoring, disciple-making
With a vision, to reproduce
‘Fishers of men’…in the making.
A Fellowship on Fire
Most depend on their pastor
For their ‘weekly bread’
The band, and kid’s programs
And they’re feeling fed.
