Your life is now consumed by the love of Christ for them. When Christ is in you, your life is now consumed by the love of Christ for them In Christ we feel the suffering of the multitudes They are described as sheep without a shepherd. Your life is now committed to the body of Christ for them. The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field” (Matt. 9:37–38). Jesus’ concern is that the church will not go to the lost. How can we best penetrate the world with the gospel? It is through the church being the church. Your life is now commissioned in the work of Christ for them. Ask the Lord of the harvest therefore to send out workers. We live and we die to multiply the kingdom 21 Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death, 22 and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. 23 When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next, for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.
