3 REASONS WHY YOU

MUST TESTIFY TO THE GOSPEL

1. LIFE IS WORTH NOTHING WITHOUT TESTIFYING TO THE

GOSPELActs 20:24

However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me--the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace.

THE MEANING OF YOUR LIFE IS NOT COMPLETE IF YOU DONT SHARE

THE GOSPEL

TMSG - WHAT MATTERS THE MOST IN YOUR LIVING IS THE TESTIFYING TO

THE GOSPEL

Act 20:24 But that matters little. What matters most to me is to finish what God started: the job the Master Jesus gave me of letting everyone I meet know all about this incredibly extravagant generosity of God.

WNT- TESTIYING TO THE GOSPEL IS OF SUPREME IMPORTANCE TO

YOU

(WNT) But even the sacrifice of my life I count as nothing, if only I may perfect my earthly course, and be faithful to the duty which the Lord Jesus has entrusted to me of proclaiming, as of supreme importance, the Good News of God's grace.

YOUR LIFE IS USELESS WHEN IT IS NOT USED TO TESTIFY TO THE

GOSPEL

2. THE LORD JESUS HAS GIVEN YOU THE TASK OF TESTIFYING TO

THE GOSPEL

Act 20:24 However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me--the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace.

GW -TESTIFYING TO THE GOSPEL IS YOUR MISSION IN

LIFE

(GW) But I don't place any value on my own life. I want to finish the race I'm running. I want to carry out the mission I received from the Lord Jesus-the mission of testifying to the Good News of God's kindness.

KJV- TESTIFYING TO THE GOSPEL IS YOUR MINISTRY

3. GOD HOLDS YOU ACCOUNTABLE OF THE BLOOD OF PEOPLE IN AND

AROUND YOUR LIFEActs 20:26 Therefore, I

declare to you today that I am innocent of the blood of all men.(GW) Therefore, I declare

to you today that I am not responsible for the spiritual death of any of you.

(NLT) Let me say plainly that I have been faithful. No one's damnation can be blamed on me,

Ezekiel 3:18 When I say to a

wicked man, 'You will surely

die,' and you do not warn

him or speak out to

dissuade him from his evil

ways in order to save his

life, that wicked man will die

for [1] his sin, and I will hold

you accountable for his

blood.
