SUMMARY: The first commandment Jesus gave to His disciples was to follow Him and become fishers of men. The speaker shares his personal testimony of transformation and how he has traveled to many countries to share the Gospel. He encourages believers to not be afraid to share their faith, as fear is the main reason people don't share. The speaker's wife also emphasizes the importance of the Hispanic community in spreading revival and encourages believers to be who they are and share their story. The speaker then references Jesus' final commandment to go into all the world and preach the Gospel, and the importance of receiving power from the Holy Spirit to do so.
The speaker talks about the significant command that Jesus gave before leaving Earth, which was to go and preach the Gospel to all people. He shares his own experience of preaching in Jerusalem and how they faced opposition but were successful in spreading the Gospel. He also talks about the importance of obeying God's commands and the consequences of not doing so. He then introduces a video titled "Who Cares?" which is based on a poem by William Booth, the founder of the Salvation Army. The video depicts people on a rock who have been saved from a stormy sea, but some of them have forgotten about their own salvation and are more concerned with their own personal ambitions. The speaker urges the audience to take action and share the hope they live by with those who are still drowning in the sea.
The writer is calling on people to take action and share their faith with others. They believe that many people are suffering and need help, and that it is our duty as Christians to share the hope we have. Even if we don't know exactly how to do it, we can start by sharing our own testimony of what Jesus has done for us. The writer promises to teach people how to defend their faith in the future, but for now, they are inviting people to start taking action and singing with all their heart.

If you have your Bibles I'd like you to look at Mark chapter 1 verse 17. And when you look at this I want you to realize that this is the first command that Jesus gave to the New Testament Church. Until this moment in time He doesn't have disciples, He is calling His first disciples and this is His first commands to His first disciples.
You know everybody has things that they wanna do in life and there's many causes out there for us to be involved in. Everybody is wearing pink against cancer for example and it's good to do that but let's talk about the central call, the first call that Jesus gives us as christians, as followers of Him. It's not confusing, come and follow Me, get set free of your sin, get set free of your misery. Let Me help you. And that's what He did for me.
