Proclaiming Christ:
Matthew 28:18-20 18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All
authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 "Go therefore and
make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and
the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded
you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."
Pleasing Christ:
1 Thessalonians 2:4 4 but just as we have been approved by God to be
entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God who
examines our hearts.
For His Glory :
Hebrews 13:20-21 20 Now the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the
great Shepherd of the sheep through the blood of the eternal covenant, even
Jesus our Lord, 21 equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that
which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever
and ever. Amen.
