Mark chapter 5 records the incident of Jesus crossing the Sea of Galilee and encountering a demon-possessed man in the country of the Gerasenes. He lived among the tombs "crying out and bruising himself with stones." Even with shackles and chains he could not be restrained for "no one had the strength to subdue him." After Jesus had healed him and was preparing to leave, the man whose name was "Legion" pled with Jesus that he might go with him. Jesus refused and said, "Go home to your friends and TELL THEM how much the Lord has done for you and how he has had mercy on you. And he went away and began to proclaim... how much Jesus had done for him" (Mark_5:19,20).

I may not be able to preach a sermon or teach a Bible class, but any believer can tell others what the Lord has done for him.

I can TELL THEM that although they have sinned against God, He loves them and has provided a Savior who will wash away their sins by his blood shed on the cross.

I can TELL THEM they can be forgiven by faith, a faith that is obedient in repenting of sin, confessing Christ and being baptized. Acts_2:38; Galatians_3:26,27

I can TELL THEM how wonderful it is to live a holy life and to enjoy the blessing of prayer, knowing God will hear and answer. (1John_3:22).

I can TELL THEM I am not afraid of death because I have eternal life. "And this is the testimony that God gave us eternal life, and this life in his Son.
Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life" (1John_5: 11,12).

Now GO TELL THEM!
