Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation

Mark 16:9-20

When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had driven seven demons. She went and told those who had been with him and who were mourning and weeping. When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe it.

Afterward Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them while they were walking in the country. These returned and reported it to the rest; but they did not believe them either.

Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.

He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. 

After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it.

Why?

The disciples did not believe Mary and two disciples said about Jesus is raised. Until Jesus is shown before them, they believe Him. 

Jesus was taken up into heaven and he said to the 11 disciples to preach the gospel to all creation. This is the mission of all of the followers of Jesus, Christians.

Men are weak and lack faith, 11 disciples even followed Jesus for three years, but they did not know Jesus will raise from the dead, and that his salvation is through his body and blood.

耶穌在七日的第一日： 代表創造的開始時。七天代表創造的過程，這是耶穌所代表新創造的開始。代表新時代的開始。教會就是神新的創造。

兩個服事的群體：抹大拉的馬利亞……及亞利馬太的約瑟及。門徒不信，因為在哀傷中，在絕望中，很難相信，兩個門徒遇見耶穌，他們也不信！死人復活曾經發生過他們仍然不信，要眼見為憑。他們不是故意不信，但是還是很難！  人畢竟軟弱，耶穌向他們顯現

耶穌向他們顯現，為了要他們傳道，證實他們所傳的道！福音初傳到一個地方，接受的人少，所以比較容易藉著神蹟來顯明神的能力。當福音傳開後，神蹟漸漸減少。人心的改變就是神蹟。雖然我們沒有像抹大拉的馬利亞看見耶穌，但是我們仍然因著與主同工，可以經歷神的同在。
