ئەپەکە بەدەست بهێنەHow to Multiply the Gospel // Gospel X - Multiplying the Gospelنموونە
God created the earth. He created it perfectly, in harmony with itself. The plants, the animals, and the whole ecosystem were in balance. God also created the first humans, and put them in his perfect world, into the Garden of Eden. Their task was to work it and care for it. The original idea was a healthy symbiosis, a cooperation, between the earth and humans. Humans will work the earth and care for it, in return, the earth will bring forth food. This cooperation only works if humans keep working the earth and caring for it. And it worked. At least for many centuries. But this changed in the last 200 years. The Industrial Revolution led people to exploit the earth. Instead of working and caring for the earth, people started to exploit and destroy it for their own enrichment. The climate crisis and the increase of natural disasters are results of this. The earth and humans are not in balance anymore. The earth groans under the pressure of humans.
- How can this balance be achieved again?
- Do you take this command of God seriously?
- How are you working the earth?
- How are you caring for the earth?
As a follower of Jesus, you can share the gospel by caring for the earth. You are an ambassador of Jesus and by taking care of His creation, you reflect God’s love for his creation. How can you reflect this love practically in your life?

About this Plan
Jesus left the church the vision of a movement when he challenged us to reproduce from our own Jerusalem into “Judea, Samaria and the end of the earth” (Acts 1:8). For us to see a movement, we need every Christ follower to adopt Jesus' personal mission to “seek and save the lost” (Luke 19:10). Evangelism is core to the mission of Jesus and essential to accomplishing his vision. This plan is part of a 5 week journey built around the topic Gospel X - Multiplying the gospel.
