Matthew 28:19 ‘Therefore go and make disciples of all nations’
Mark 16:15 ‘Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation’
Luke 24:47 ‘Repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations’.
As we turn from the gospels onto the Book of Acts we see how seriously the early church took it’s command to take the gospel into the whole world. In
Acts 1:8 we see how the early church waited for the promise in order to commence the Great Commission, and this scripture actually quotes the words of Jesus when he says, ‘You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth’.
