Love, Patience, and Perseverance: Outside These Walls Ministries' Commitment to the Great Commission

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:19-20

In today's fast-paced world, love, patience and perseverance are often overlooked virtues. However, Outside These Walls Ministries understands the importance of these qualities in fulfilling the great commission. Our commitment is to spread hope and compassion to the lost tribes of Israel and those in need of salvation. One of the ways that Outside These Walls Ministries demonstrates love and patience is through our outreach efforts to the homeless and addicted population. Each week, we take to the streets to connect with people. We understand that building relationships and trust takes time, and we are willing to put in the effort to reach out to individuals who may have been overlooked or forgotten by society. By consistently showing up and being present in the community, we hope to make a lasting impact and bring people to salvation. Perseverance is another key characteristic of Outside These Walls Ministries. We understand that change doesn't happen overnight and that transformation takes time. We are committed to walking alongside individuals on their journey towards salvation, offering support, guidance, and resources along the way. We don't give up on people, even when they face setbacks or challenges. Instead, we continue to show up, offer a helping hand, and share the love of God with those who need it most.

Love, patience and perseverance are action values. As Sabbath keepers, we understand the importance of living out the word we teach. We strive to embody characteristics such as integrity, forgiveness, love, and patience in all aspects of our ministry. By living out these values, we are able to build trust and credibility within the community, making our outreach efforts even more impactful. For those looking to reach out to homeless and addicted, here are a few tips: 1. Stay committed: Remember that fulfilling the great commission is a lifelong journey.
