Yes, Jesus commanded his followers to share their faith in what is known as the Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20. This command includes going to all nations, making disciples, baptizing them, and teaching them to obey Jesus’ teachings. Other biblical passages, such as Acts 1:8 and Mark 16:15, also contain instructions to spread the gospel message and be witnesses to Christ.
The Great Commission: In Matthew 28:19-20, Jesus explicitly states, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you”.
Empowered witnesses: In Acts 1:8, Jesus says, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses… even to the ends of the earth”.
Preach to all creation: In Mark 16:15, Jesus says, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature”.
Shine your light: Jesus also taught that believers should let their light shine before others through their good works, so that others may give glory to God.
