BIBLE PASSAGE: Mark 16:15-20 KJV (RCCG Sunday School STUDENT Manual 6 June 2021)
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
RCCG Sunday School Student Manual 6th June 2021 – Lesson 40
INTRODUCTION: Shortly after the baptism and wilderness experiences of Jesus Christ, His earthly ministry started with the preaching of the gospel and ended with the commissioning of the disciples for the same assignment (Mark 1:9-14; Matthew 28:18-20). Without doubt, this must have been an issue topmost in the heart of the Lord Jesus Christ for all generations.
LESSON OUTLINES
- A Must For All Believers
- The Message Is Simple
1. A MUST FOR ALL BELIEVERS
The Lord commands all believers to go and preach the gospel (Matthew 28:18-20), the power and the wisdom of God (1 Corinthians 1:24). A refusal to preach, as Apostle Paul was concerned, is a curse (1 Corinthians 9:16). It is a duty that is not limited by seasonal changes, societal, spiritual or marital status (2 Timothy 42; Acts 18:26).
The Lord does not want anyone to perish (2 Peter 3:9;1 Timothy 2:4). He promises rest for the weary, rescue for the perishing soul and everlasting life for the repentant sinner (Matthew 11:28; Isaiah 61:1-3; John 3:36). He remains our Advocate with the heavenly Father (1John 2:1-2) and His blood still cleanses from all sins (1John 1:7). Therefore every believer must see the task of preaching the gospel and soul winning as an inevitable one (1 Corinthians 9:16). Do not shy away from it (Romans 1:16).
However, to do this divine assignment profitably, you need godly wisdom (James 1:5-8; Acts 17:15-34), a heart of compassion (Matthew 9:36; 23:37) and the power of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8; 4:31; 16:16-18).
2. THE MESSAGE IS SIMPLE
The word from the beginning (John 1:1, 14) makes it abundantly clear that all souls are His (Ezekiel 18:4) and that these souls have all sinned (Romans 3:23). Whosoever confesses and forsakes his or her sins will obtain mercy (Proverbs 28:13; 1John 1:8-10) since the grace of God in Christ Jesus will grant him or her eternal life (Romans 6:23). This is a new covenant in the blood of Jesus, which alone can atone for the sins of the whole world (Hebrews 9:14).
CONCLUSION: If the Lord Jesus Christ saw the preaching of the gospel as unavoidable, then, believers therefore have no excuse. He has promised that we will do greater works (John 14:12) and that He will be with us always (Matthew 28:20). Pray and obey now.

O how I love Thee well,
I am happy, it makes me glad
To rejoice at Thy birth. - O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Thy friendship suits me well,
Both young and old will sing Thy song,
We long for Sunday School. - O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Christ was Thy first teacher,
The Holy Spirit, great teacher,
Does manifest in thee. - O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
This testimony is sure,
That God, the Father Almighty,
Poured His blessing on Thee. - O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Though the sun be so bright,
Or if the clouds black with rain,
I’ll be in Sunday School. - O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
I rejoice to see Thee,
Will thou pass over me today?
Without my being blest?
