Matthew 28:16-20 says, “Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

The above scriptures are what is known as, “The Great Commission.” We read about the instructions Jesus gave his disciples. He told them to go out and preach the gospel to all nations. When we put Christ on in baptism, we take on the same responsibility. What are we doing to fulfill this duty? Sometimes it might be difficult to approach someone and discuss the Word of God. It might be difficult to talk about our faith to people who do not go to church. Our words and actions can have an impact on others. Sharing the gospel can make a difference to many. Some do not wish to hear about the Word of God. There could be some who will listen to the Word of God. Sharing the gospel could be the difference in someone turning their life over to Christ.

What are we doing to teach the gospel to all? What difference are we making?
