Merriam-Webster's succinct (precise) definition of the word “issue,” is “the out flow.”
In the gospel of John, Jesus was reported to have said, to His disciples: “Once upon a time you were dead men, But now I AM sending you forth with the same life that is in Me;” And ...He breathed on them, and said, “Receive ye the Holy Ghost (breath of life)”
[Pastor; Jn 20:19-23]
The take away, from this revelation, is: as we have “freely received” (of the issue/out flow of His life), so should we “freely give” (flow out, be dispensers of His life's breath).
[Matt 10:8]
Christ's commandment from the Father to redeem us, and, especially, impart His (eternal) life unto us, has become “the will of God” for us.
[Jn 20:21; Acts 19:1-6]
Jesus said, “Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father ...the Son, and the Holy Ghost.” [Matt 28:19]

THERE IS A RIVER WHOSE STREAMS MAKE GLAD THE CITY OF OUR GOD.
IT CAME AND IT HEALED ME; IT CAME AND IT FILLED ME; IT CAME AND IT WASHED MY SINS AWAY.
SO, I WILL REJOICE, I WILL REJOICE, AND BE GLAD!
