The Great Commission / Evangelism

The Great Commission is the instruction of the resurrected Jesus Christ to his disciples to spread the gospel to all the nations of the world. The most famous version of the Great Commission is in Matthew 28:16–20, where on a mountain in Galilee Jesus calls on his followers to make disciples of and baptize all nations in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The scriptures about Evangelism are many and sharing Jesus is essential to the Christian message. Since God showed His love for use, we are compelled to share His love for others.
