THERE ARE NO BOUNDARIES

“…and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” (Acts 1:8b KJV)

Do you remember when you first learned to ride a bike?  And do you recall having set boundaries initially; boundaries that were eventually expanded gradually?  Sometimes you stayed within those boundaries and other times, tell the truth now, you went beyond the boundaries set by your parent(s).  In my case, initially my boundary for bike riding was to go no further than the block on which we lived.  Gradually it was expanded from the 1300 block on 30th Street to the 1100 block on 30th Street.  Eventually, after a long period of time, I could ride anywhere as long as I was safe and obeyed the biking rules of the road, as well as an established time to be back home.  Boundaries…

Boundaries as it relates to our witnessing as believers, winning others to Christ, leading lost souls to salvation, well, there are no boundaries.  There are no geographical boundaries, no nationality boundaries, no ethnic boundaries, no age boundaries, no physical characteristic boundaries, and no class or caste boundaries!  I could go one, but let me stop right here and just reiterate the point.  As it relates to our witnessing as believers, in regard to boundaries, there are no boundaries.

Therefore, it is essential in this post-pandemic era that we focus on recruiting souls, recapturing strayed souls, and reaching all who are on their way to hell, with no God on their side.  How essential is it that we realize we have no boundaries?  It is very essential because churches are closing, the younger generation is turning away from religion and forfeiting their personal faith.  And in spite of the Lord’s expectations to be His witnesses, a responsibility given to us from the Lord, a charge to be about winning souls, it seems that many have excused ourselves from executing the work that the Lord gave us.  I rest my case, by reiterating, repeating the following: As it relates to our witnessing as believers, in regard to boundaries, there are no boundaries.

Read the closing verse, one which should motivate you, mobilize you for actions as a witness for the Lord.  Have a great day!  Remember: “NO BOUNDARIES!”  Be blessed!

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God [that is, His remarkable, overwhelming gift of grace to believers] is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23 The Amplified Bible)

Still committed to the climb,

Mark L. King
