Jesus’ Vision, for His Church

While God’s call, to all His people
To be His witness, to introduce
Be ever praying and obeying
We are to spiritually reproduce.

Pew Spectators or Disciple Makers?

We’ve many, passive in the pews
Low expectations, of ‘laypeople’
Spectators, not disciple makers
Obeying, training of God’s people.

Pew Warmers, or Gospel Sharers?

For as saints we are called
To serve and to care
Those hungry and hurting
God’s Good News to share.

Prosperity Preachers or Great Commission Teachers?

Not a self-serving ministry
But sinners saved, when speaking
Not into personal prosperity
But lost souls, we’re seeking.

Pew Sitters or People Seekers?

But evangelists are training
To equip and show how
Watch their videos, read books
Obey God, and learn now.

Churches are not Equipping

Instead equip, the saints for ministry
To train them for outreach
For the work of the ministry
To multiply, so all are reached.

Jesus’ Commission, or Men’s Traditions?

If church planting or growing
Need both teaching, disciple training
Use Jesus’ template, to multiply
As we are sadly, sitting and failing.

How Jesus Disciples

From God’s Word, we also find
Discipleship is reproducing
Be wholly yielding, and outreaching
Not just head knowledge, but observing.

Gathering AND Going?

So focus not, on just the gatherings
But go like Jesus, disciple training
Mentored His followers, to reproduce
Obey His Commission, go disciple-making!

Not Focused on Church Buildings

Jesus finished, His atonement
Yet His ministry, was incomplete
Left His mission, disciple-making
We are commanded, to complete.
