Luke 19:10 says it so clearly in Jesus own words; "The Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost..."
The task is very clear, uncluttered...even simple!
Matt 28:19-20 "Jesus last words are 'GO... MAKE DISCIPLES of the Nations...BAPTIZE in the name of the Father, Son & Holy Spirit...TEACH new disciples to obey ALL the commands I have given you. Be sure of this I AM with you always...'"
WHERE and HOW does this work best? In communities of faith...CHURCH! The most effective way to fulfill this in our lifetime is to start new Churches. I am really going out on the edge here, but I believe it is consistent with Biblical discipleship - Jesus' last command - the commission he gave His disciples which includes us, is to plant, start new communities of faith...churches of different sizes and styles. God is soooo creative!
Anyway that's what I believe Jesus told us to do!!!! What do you think?
