The Kingdom of GodAs we covered from previous PSI the
kingdom of God is the rule of God within a region or realm.
People who are born again have received the kingdom of God within their hearts.
In the kingdom of God the king’s word is law.
The kingdom of God is advanced through the mandate of the Great Commission.

The Great CommissionThe Great Commission is the mandate that Jesus
Christ gave his followers after his resurrection and before his ascension in to heaven.
The Great Commission is the basis for global missions work, advancing the kingdom of God upon the earth, and it is the spirit of evangelism.
Legs represent evangelism in the body of Christ. There are two great legs that form the Great Commission. One is evangelism and the other is discipleship.

Great Commission Barriers to Entry
There are two main factors that pose as hindrances to receiving the gospel of Jesus Christ
The first is understanding. Many who do not receive the gospel simply do not understand its message.
The second barrier is acceptance. Some do not accept the gospel because they are offended by its message.

The Great Commission
Evangelism Discipleship 15 And he said unto them, Go ye
into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Mark 16:15-18
18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Matthew 28:18-20

The Great Commission Demographics
Worldwide evangelism:In "The Faith Equation," Dr. Marvin Bittinger, Professor of Mathematics at Purdue University and author of over 175 college math textbooks, claims that by 2033 every person on the planet capable of understanding the gospel will have been presented the gospel, according to modern evangelism trends. 34,000 converts each day in South America28-37,000 Chinese converts daily23-25,000 African converts daily 16,000 Muslims come to Christ daily - the following stories are all quoted.
"In December 2001, Sheikh Ahmad al Qataani, a leading Saudi cleric, appeared on a live interview on Aljazeera satellite television to confirm that, sure enough, Muslims were turning to Jesus in alarming numbers. "In every hour, 667 Muslims convert to Christianity," Al Qataani warned. "Every day, 16,000 Muslims convert to Christianity. Every year, 6 million Muslims convert to Christianity." Stunned, the interviewer interrupted the cleric. "Hold on! Let me clarify. Do we have six million converting from Islam to Christianity?" Al Qataani repeated his assertion. "Every year," the cleric confirmed, adding, "a tragedy has happened."©2014JamesWillisMinistries

Forward Thinking & Pay It Forward If the spiritual leadership will lead and
coordinate the church congregation within their giftings and calling then there can be an anointed integral team that will reek havoc in the enemies camp.
We must effectively implement the 3Ds of Deliverance, Discipleship, and Dominion. This is key to fulfilling the Great Commission.
We need believers who understand teamwork and who are competent and committed.
