INTRODUCTION: THE MISSION IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE; IT JUST TAKES
A WILLING MIND AND HEART AND COURAGE/FAITH!


Acts 20:17-38:


17 But when we landed at Miletus, he sent a message to the
elders of the church at Ephesus, asking them to come and meet
him. 18 When they arrived he declared, “You know that from
the day I set foot in the province of Asia until now 19 I
have done the Lord’s work humbly and with many tears. I have
endured the trials that came to me from the plots of the Jews.
20 I never shrank back from telling you what you needed to
hear, either publicly or in your homes. 21 I have had one
message for Jews and Greeks alike—the necessity of repenting from
sin and turning to God, and of having faith in our Lord Jesus.
22 “And now I am bound by the Spirit[a] to go to
Jerusalem. I don’t know what awaits me, 23 except that the
Holy Spirit tells me in city after city that jail and suffering
lie ahead. 24 But my life is worth nothing to me unless I
use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the
work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of
God. 25 “And now I know that none of you to whom I have
preached the Kingdom will ever see me again. 26 I declare
today that I have been faithful. If anyone suffers eternal death,
it’s not my fault,[b] 27 for I didn’t shrink from
declaring all that God wants you to know. 28 “So guard
yourselves and God’s people. Feed and shepherd God’s flock—his
church, purchased with his own blood[c]—over which the Holy
Spirit has appointed you as leaders.  29 I know that
false teachers, like vicious wolves, will come in among you after
I leave, not sparing the flock. 30 Even some men from your
own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a
following. 31 Watch out! Remember the three years I was
with you—my constant watch and care over you night and day, and
my many tears for you. 32 “And now I entrust you to God
and the message of his grace that is able to build you up and
give you an inheritance with all those he has set apart for
himself. 33 “I have never coveted anyone’s silver or gold
or fine clothes. 34 You know that these hands of mine have
worked to supply my own needs and even the needs of those who
were with me. 35 And I have been a constant example of how
you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember
the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to
receive.’” 36 When he had finished speaking, he knelt and
prayed with them. 37 They all cried as they embraced and
kissed him goodbye. 38 They were sad most of all because
he had said that they would never see him again. Then they
escorted him down to the ship.


 The two greatest needs in the world today are for souls
to be saved and Christians to be revived!
