Shoes of the gospel of Peace Bible story: Philip and the Ethiopian (Acts 8:26-40) Now it is time to put our shoes on so that we are ready to go! This means that we are ready to share the gospel, or ready to obey at any moment, or ready to GO do the right thing. What we wear on our feet determines our stability and our mobility. What shoes we wear affects how far we can walk or run comfortably. The wrong choice of footwear can cripple us, slow us down, and make us drop out of the line of march. A soldier who is barefoot could get into real trouble. One of the last things we want to have to worry about is where we step while in battle. Shoes allow us to step freely and without fear while we turn our full attention to the battle at hand. The body of Christ is sent to announce the good news of God's Kingdom, which will spread His way of peace around the whole world. Having our shoes on, we are ready to move, to spread the good news to others. The story of Philip from the book of Acts is a great story of someone who was ready to go proclaim the gospel. Out of nowhere an angel tells him to get up and go, giving him specific directions of what street in the city. When he arrives, the Lord tells him to run up to a certain vehicle. Philip asks the man if he understands what he is reading, he gets an invite into the car, and then proceeds to share the gospel. The Ethiopian decides to choose Christ and stops the car to get baptized right there! Philip baptized him, but when they came up out of the water, Philip disappeared! The Spirit of the Lord took Philip somewhere else to continue preaching the gospel.What an amazing true story of someone who was willing & ready to go and share the gospel! "I choose to have a good relationship with God and to be ready to serve Him always." Questions: 1\. In what situation would you suddenly need to share the Gospel, without preparing yourself in advance? 2\. What subject would you teach if you had to lead a class without being warned? 3\. What is the gospel of “PEACE” compared to the gospel of fear? 4\. What did the Ethiopian ask Phillip? 5\. When the Ethiopian saw water, what did he ask for?
