Summary

(Acts 21:8-9) Philip exemplified a Great Commission mindset — not merely by traveling but by faithfully taking the gospel to his neighbors, the incarcerated (including Paul’s prison ministry), and the surrounding region that fed into Rome and beyond. The gospel is good news meant to be shared; "go" is an attitude as much as a geography, and faithful witness can happen across the street in everyday relationships, as well as around the world.

0:00.0	The good news of the gospel is only good news to those who hear it.
0:11.6	Philip the evangelist understood that. He did not keep the message to himself, but he went
0:17.0	wherever the spirit of God led him, and he preached Christ to those who needed to know.
0:23.0	In this study that Scott is calling the gospel Christian, he reminds us that the word gospel
0:28.8	means good news. It even has the word go in it, reminding us that the Christian life is meant
0:36.3	to advance the gospel message.
0:39.1	Join Scott Pauley today as we learn what it means to be a true gospel Christian.
0:48.2	One of my favorite evangelists to read about and read after was the man that was used of the Lord in the
0:55.3	Great Awakening. His name was George Whitfield. Wittfield said, had I a thousand souls and
1:01.5	bodies, they should all be itinerants for Jesus Christ. Oh, may I never cease itinerating
1:09.9	till I sit down in the kingdom of heaven.
1:13.0	Oh, for a pilgrim's heart with my pilgrim's life.
1:17.8	As an itinerant preacher myself, I understand something about what he's referencing,
1:23.5	moving from place to place, on to the next place, just passing through. But in reality, we're all
1:29.8	just itinerant people. We're all just passing through. We are pilgrims. And as we pass through,
1:37.6	we must be giving the gospel of Jesus Christ. And I think the great passion that Whitfield gave in those words may I never cease
1:47.3	really is a tremendous description of what we find in the final mention of Philip
1:52.2	the evangelist in Acts chapter 21 he is never ceasing you know our God is the one truly
1:59.7	who never ceases he's always the. But our faithful God has made it so that we can be faithful. He is our great sustainer. He is the one who keeps us in the battle and in the race and in the work. And today we return to Acts 21 to find yet another lesson about Philip the evangelist. In our
2:21.3	last study, we identified the fact that he was still faithful, still faithful to Christ, still faithful
2:27.8	to the church. I love that. Did he love Christ when we first met him early in Acts? Yes, but when you get to Acts 21,
2:35.4	he still loves Christ and as a faithful follower of Christ. By the way, in a very wicked city.
