S2 - #43 AN UNCOMPROMISING GOSPEL

The commissioning of the disciples (Matthew 10) was the beginning of Christ's called ministry. The disciples sent out without money and only the clothes on their back. Jesus instructed them to cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. He explained, "You freely received cleansing; give it without expecting payment. " (Mt. 10:8)Today, we market the gospel like every other commodity. A designer-Jesus is available to fit every consumer's demand. The ministry like other professions seeks stability, security, and a decent pension plan. It is a far cry from what Jesus intended.
