Creating a Culture of Gospel Multiplication // Gospel X - Multiplying the GospelНамуна

The gospel spread throughout the Middle East: Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch. In addition, the gospel was not only spread among Jews and God-fearers, but they also started to spread to the Greeks. Twice in this short paragraph it says “and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord.” (v.21) and “and a great number of people were brought to the Lord.” (v.24).

The persecution in Jerusalem led to great numbers that accepted the Lord in different regions. What a blessing! The first church in Jerusalem would probably never have imagined this. God can use everything to bring out something good. It also shows that the first Christians would not keep still. Once they arrived at a new place, they started to talk about Jesus and the Good News. It was part of their behaviour, their culture. The Good News changed their own life so much that they could not hide it.

How do you react towards challenges and oppositions? Do you trust in God? Do you focus on God bringing righteousness? Do you have faith in God making something good out of every situation?

How many friends of yours know about you being a Christian? With how many friends have you spoken about your faith? Do you keep your faith private? Or do you tell easily about your faith in Jesus?

What is your culture when it comes to gospel multiplication?
