15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved, but he who does not believe will be condemned.17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.
Mark 16:15-20
Q & A：
- How do you feel about sharing the gospel with others and what has prevented you from sharing? Talk about your understanding of the gospel, and why this is a good news for you when compared to other religions. (Mar 16:15-20; Rom 1:16-17; John 3:16; 2 Cor 5:21)
- Based on the fact that we are being made righteous and accepted by God, why do we sometimes still feel insecure, unfulfilled, and empty? Do you feel fully accepted by God and what is causing you to doubt His forgiveness or love? （Eph 1:7; Rom 5:9; Eph 1:6）
- Have you experienced or witnessed any healing, signs and wonders or miracles under the manifestation of the Holy Spirit setting? What is your understanding or concerns on laying hands on the sick to pray for healing? Discuss what kind of mindset we should have for healing and what roles do we play through God’s healing process. （1 Cor 2: 4-5；1Cor 12:1,7-11；Heb 2:4）
