15 The LORD said to Moses, Why do you cry to
me? Tell the people of Israel to go forward!
God says GO!
3
Mat 419 And he said to them, Follow me, and I
will make you fishers of men.
Mat 420 Immediately they left their nets and
followed him.
Consider what this means...
4
Jesus said Follow me. Then he left...
If they want to be with Him, they would have to
leave, too.
5
Go movement vs. Come structure.
Two choices for churches.
6
Jesus is on the go Mark 133 And the whole
city was gathered together about the door. 34
And he healed many who were sick with various
diseases, and cast out many demons and he would
not permit the demons to speak, because they knew
him. 35 And in the morning, a great while before
day, he rose and went out to a lonely place, and
there he prayed.
7
Jesus is on the go Mark 136 And Simon and
those who were with him pursued him, 37 and they
found him and said to him, Every one is
searching for you. 38 And he said to them, Let
us go on to the next towns, that I may preach
there also for that is why I came out. 39 And
he went
It always was a GO movement.
8
Jesus is on the go Matthew 2818 And Jesus came
and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on
earth has been given to me. 19 Go therefore and
make disciples of all nations
And of course, they went, right?

Nope.
10
Come Structure. Leave the capitol city? Site of
our triumph?
11
Jesus is on the go Acts 81 And Saul was
consenting to his death. And on that day a great
persecution arose against the church in
Jerusalem and they were all scattered throughout
the region of Judea and Samaria, except the
apostles.
The apostles stay put, and slowly disappear from
view.
12
Acts 84 Now those who were scattered went about
preaching the word. 5 Philip went down to a city
of Samaria, and proclaimed to them the Christ. 6
And the multitudes with one accord gave heed to
what was said by Philip, when they heard him and
saw the signs which he did. 7 For unclean
spirits came out of many who were possessed,
crying with a loud voice and many who were
paralyzed or lame were healed. 8 So there was
much joy in that city.
When you GO, Jesus GOES WITH YOU.
13
Come Structure. If no one goes, no one comes.
14
Come Structure. Were still waiting.
15
We're still waiting.
16
Jesus was on the go. (Except for three days.)
If you want to be with him, you cannot stay where
you are forever. You cannot remain always the
same. Instead, you will grow as you learn to go.
17
What could happen if we followed Jesus...
Out of maintaining our comfort zone?
18
What will you do? Where will you go? What's your
spiritual PRNDL?

Don't just stand there!
