[Jesus] said to them, “Go everywhere in the world. Tell the Good News to everyone. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved. But those who do not believe will be judged guilty.”
People need salvation from God. And it does not matter when and where they live. God desires to bring them to salvation.
As Christians, it is very important for us to obey our Lord Jesus Christ’s command to preach the Gospel of Jesus always and to everyone. God’s plan is for us all to hear the gospel. As it is written in the Word of God, “God wants everyone to be saved and to fully understand the truth,” (1 Timothy 2:4).
Christ’s call for us is to be His witnesses, and evangelism is one way in which we can fulfill this. The Bible says, “But the Holy Spirit will come on you and give you power. You will be My witnesses. You will tell people everywhere about Me—in Jerusalem, in the rest of Judea, in Samaria, and in every part of the world,” (Acts 1:8).
There are so many ways we can witness for our Lord Jesus Christ, and we should use any opportunity to share the Gospel of Christ. For example, one way is through showing love to our neighbors. By doing this, we show the world that we belong to the Savior, our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus was clearly a great soul winner (and Savior), the Great and Unique Evangelist. And we should follow His example. Today, Christians have the Spirit of Christ in them; Jesus Christ guaranteed that He’s there with us to the end of time. Because we have the Spirit of Christ in us, we have His enablement and His authority; so let us use every opportunity to share the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
May the Lord bless you.
