For if I preach the gospel, that gives me no ground for boasting. For necessity is laid upon me. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel! For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward, but if not of my own will, I am still entrusted with a stewardship.
I and each member of Your Church is entrusted with the necessity to preach the Gospel. It is not something that we can choose to do or not do—it is something we must do. The Great Commandment is not the Great Suggestion.
I MUST PREACH THE GOSPEL
