     1 Corinthians 7:17 Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord       has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches  

      1 Peter 3:15 Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who askes you to give the reason            for hope that you have 

      Philippians 2:4 Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests        but each of you to the interests of others 

      Mark 16:15 Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation 

     Isaiah 58:6-7 Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to Loose the chains of injustice and untie         the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke? Is it not to share your food             with the hungry and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter when you see the naked, to clothe             them, and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood. 

     Matthew 28:19-20 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the       Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded         you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. 

    The Bible has the answer for all of our problem: 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is breathed out by        God and useful for teaching, for conviction, for correction and for disciplined training in                        righteousness in order to fit and fully equip the man from God for every task.
