Colossians 4:2-6
Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison-- that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak. Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.
Declaring the mystery of Christ clearly and walking wisely. Basic instructions for disciple making. The two simultaneous facets of the Great Commission.
Ground rules are to make the best use of my time and always speak graciously with appropriately seasoned words. Then I am in position to declare the mystery of Christ and to lead others into walking with Him.
