What are you doing to live out the Great Commission today.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

To live out the Great Commission today, I am sharing the truth of God's Word with others, through various virtual platforms during this corona virus pandemic, by spreading hope, love, and encouragement and being an positive channel of support for others. I am doing this by sharing Scriptures, prayers, thoughtful and inspiring messages to love ones and friends so they will know that they are not alone, as we navigate these very difficult times together and joining our faith together in trusting in God to bring about miraculous healing to our land.

Explanation:

The Great Commission was given to the disciples of Jesus Christ in the New Testament, to go and spread the gospel (or the "good news" which was  that Jesus had come into the world to save the world from their sins,  he lived as a man, was crucified on Calvary's cross, died and rose again on the 3rd day) all over the land. In having the disciples spread the gospel, the truth of God's Word would touch the hearts of  all who heard, to place their faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, the One who offers eternal life, hope, peace, love, and eternal security. The reason this is important is because "sin" separates mankind from a saving relationship with holy God. Jesus came to restore our broken relationship with his Father through his sacrificial death on Calvary's cross.
