The Great Commission To Worship
Introduction
Evangelism could be described briefly as proclaiming God's heart to the people who lived without standards of truth. Evangelism with the heart of God is being based upon worshipping God and glorifying God as well. Worshipping God is means to rejoice in God and to reveal Jesus in one’s life.1 Authors David Wheeler and Vernon M. Whaley in "The Great Commission to God" book have emphasized the importance of Worship to the reader in order for Christian to become a great commission worshipper. Authors have asserted that the top points in the book are worship and evangelism. These are a matter of cardinal importance to Believers who desire to live God's will and way. Because God created us for glorifying him and worshipping him, he poured out the Holy Spirit to Christians for discipleship. Believers should continue loving God by worshipping God and loving neighbors as Jesus showed us the evangelistic life if believers want to live faithful life and achieve God’s great commission.
Critique I looked back upon my student days while reading this book. I did guide a lot of unbeliever friends to God when I used to have powerful passion for God. I prayed for God that I hope to have passionate heart for unbelievers. Also I prayed for God to discard fear, concern, and frustration to tell the gospel to the unbelievers. I realized why my mind has reduced passion for unbeliever because my heart had reduced passion for God. What I truly need in my Christian life is not only to love God, but also worshipping God. Therefore I decide to worship God anywhere and anytime.
I made a list of ten people in order to guide friends who did not believe in God. Also I contacted my friend who does not believe in Jesus. He is an antichristian. But he is fond of talking with me. I always approach him with enough prayers. I trust God who can change his thought and heart through me. I am going to keep in touch with listed friends and continue pray for them every day. Because I
