Do God’s Methods Still Work Today?
“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.’ Amen.”
Matthew 28:18-20

Ponder This
If you are wondering what your purpose is or what you should do, remember that our mandate has not changed. The Lord Jesus has never withdrawn the Great Commission. It is just as powerful, just as real today as it ever has been.
Not only has our mandate not changed, but our Master has also not changed. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He has as much power in the twenty-first century as He had in the first century.
The mandate has not changed; the Master has not changed; and the message has not changed. We don’t need a new and a modern gospel for a new and a modern age. The Apostle Paul didn’t have a microphone; he didn’t have electric lights; and he didn’t have a car—those are the means. But the methods have not changed: prayer, truth, Holy Spirit anointing, sharing, witnessing, soul-winning, giving, loving, sharing—those are Bible methods! They’re just as fresh today as they were two thousand years ago.
Some people say, “Men are so harsh today! People are so sinful today.” I want to tell you something: Adam was totally depraved, and you can’t get worse than that. God has never had anything but sinners to work with. It is an insult to God to say we cannot have revival.
