“And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’”
We live out the Great Commission as a way of life rather than as a mere institutional program. This means that fulfilling the Great Commission, which is Christ’s personal command to all of us take His Gospel to all those who have yet to hear it, takes priority, not only in the lives of those who serve God in a vocational ministry, but also and especially in the life decisions of every Christian as to where to live, where work and how to relate to others. This evangelistic priority is expected to show up in practical ways throughout our entire lives.
