Let me invite you to turn. In your Bibles to 1 Corinthians chapter 91 Corinthians 9, our purpose, as we've been telling you, in recent weeks through the weeks of this short series is to help people to journey from brokenness, the brokenness of sin to wholeness. Through the gospel of Jesus Christ. And there are 5 critical, points or elements of this journey from brokenness to wholeness.
And in the series we've already looked at the 1st 3 and that is gospel conversion, and then secondly, gospel centrality. Thirdly, gospel community and today we will look at the 4th aspect or element of this journey and that is gospel commission. Gospel commission and we, and looking at these elements of the journey, we have been tracking the life of the apostle Paul and we've been observing his journey from brokenness to wholeness through the gospel and we have seen how he was converted to Christ and we have also studied and seen. In recent weeks, how Paul lived a life of gospel centrality.
2 weeks ago, we saw how he operated and lived his life in gospel community. And today we're going to see how Paul lived a life that was focused on fulfilling. The Gospel commission. That Christ had given to him.
And doing this is gonna be helpful for us because all of us have been given a commission, right? All of us have been given the great commission. And that is in Matthew 28 to go into all the world and to make disciples of all the nations. And Jesus continues on from that call....
