Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Matthew 28:19-20
A disciple is a follower. When we become disciples of Jesus Christ through our obedience, an inseparable part of that obedience is making those we meet disciples too. Simply, to be a disciple is to make disciples. Somewhere, sometime, we have put a different spin on this direction from Jesus. Making disciples has become a branch of ministry that is conducted by someone else. When we delegate this, and make it optional, we feel better not doing it. We should not help ourselves feel that way. Let's all go make disciples all the time, as Jesus directed.
