Go and make disciples of all nations

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.— MATTHEW 28:19,20 

If you ever wondered what our responsibility is in the world, here is the answer. Go and make disciples of all nations. Jesus said that to the apostles, but the Great Commission extends to all of us. We are to make disciples of Christ from all the nations. In fact, in the Greek the only verb here is “make disciples.” The rest of the verb forms are participles that modify the main verb. Going, baptizing, and teaching are components of making disciples. And you’re not alone in this enterprise. “Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Until the time is completely done for evangelism, Jesus is with you helping you to do so. This is our commission and the reason God leaves us here on earth—to bring people to Christ from all the nations by going, baptizing, and then teaching them so that they can observe everything the Lord commanded. Make sure you’re involved in this joyous duty.
