On Mission: The One

Who is the one you need to reach?

LIVE YOUR MISSION / THE GREAT COMMISSION

Take up your cross and follow Him.

"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose." -Jim Elliot

"Expect God to move because of your attempt to do his will." -William Carey

"I can persevere to any definite pursuit." -William Carey

"Young man, sit down! You are an enthusiast. When God pleases to convert the heathen, he'll do it without consulting you or me." 

"Multitudes sit at ease and give themselves no concern about the far greater part of their fellow sinners, wo this day, are lost in ignorance and idolatry." - William Carey

"I am in a strange land. No Christian friend, a larger family, and nothing to supply their wants. Well, I have God, and his word is sure. This is indeed the valley of the shadow of death to me, but I rejoice that I am here notwithstanding; and God is here." - William Carey

William took the call for the Great Commission. The Great Commission applies to ALL Christians at ALL times. He criticized fellow believers for ignoring the Great Commission. William kept his faith as a missionary and learned Bengali. He published a New Testament in Bengali and baptized his first person in 7 years. He did all of this for 1 person to come and know Jesus.
