It's amazing the truth you find in the Word even though you have read a particular passage of scripture for years and can quote it in your sleep.

Mark 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

I wonder if refers to EVERY creature...

I read this passage the other day and realized how lacking my preaching has been. Like many others, I have focused my preaching and teaching on people. At first, I wondered how preaching to the cats around my house could possible help the kingdom of God. That thought vaporized as fast as a dollar bill in a fastfood restaurant when I realized how our preaching is to fill the whole world. I was reading a King James Version, so I decided to cross reference the verse with other versions. Yep! Without exception, they all say the same thing. You can check it if you like. We'll wait...

See what I mean? It's an awesome calling!

It's not such a surprise really. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit, you find you will tell everyone and everything the wonderful news of Jesus Christ!

When was the last time you preached to the cats?
