I. NINETEEN centuries have passed since Christ uttered the “Go ye” of the great commission, and it is still true that the majority of mankind are unsaved. Almost a thousand millions of our lost race perish in the life of each generation without the Gospel. Does not that commission throw the responsibility for all this upon the church of Christ, and especially upon its leaders, the ministry? 2. We have evidently reached a great crisis in the history of our race, when nothing but the universal spread and triumph of the Gospel can save the church and the world from dire disaster. The Gospel has wrapped up in it the solution of all the industrial, financial, political, social, and12moral problems of the age with which the philosophers and statesmen and philanthropists are hopelessly struggling. Is not the call a clear one to those who have the Gospel, and understand its regenerating and transforming power, to apply it speedily in making over mankind and transforming human institutions by this divine agency? 3. Christ requires that we should give the Gospel to the world immediately. His command is, “Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature.” That is the plainest of commands. It means us personally. It means now, for it is in the present tense, and God has now unquestionably, for the first time in the centuries, removed out of the way every obstacle to the immediate evangelization of the world, and given to the church everything needed for the completion of the work of preaching the Gospel to the world. The whole world is open and accessible, physically, geographically, politically, to the Gospel messengers, and waiting for them. The church has the means, the messengers, and the promise of the Spirit at her command, and seems dangerously near to suffering eclipse of faith and blight of life because of her failure to avail herself of them in fulfilling her great and pressing mission. Christ is waiting for her to move in obedience to his command. Who among her leaders will risk the responsibility of holding back or of hindering the onward movement he demands?—Homiletic Review.
