Matthew 28:18-19 defines the depth of the Great Commission Then Jesus came to them and said, “Therefore go and make disciples of all.”
Mark 16:15 emphasizes the breadth and quantity of the sowing He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.”
Luke 24:46-47 shows the surety of the Great Commission. He told them, “… repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all
John 20:21 shows Jesus as the model of the Great Commission. Again Jesus said, “As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”
Acts 1:8 speaks of the extent of the Great Commission “But 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.”
Should every person on earth have the opportunity to understand the gospel and follow Jesus regardless of his language, culture and location?
Basic definition of a people group: A group of people with their own language and culture
