Christians should be speaking of Christ and life in Him to others. People are in desperate need of life and unless they hear the message, as Paul says plainly in Romans 10, they cannot believe it and be saved.
Undoubtedly, we were made with an essential connection between Christ and those who need His salvation. Jesus told His disciples before His ascension to heaven that they would be His witnesses to the ends of the earth, and so they became witnesses and so did multitudes of others after them.
The world had to hear what had happened in Galilee and Judea in those thirty-some fateful years and so they spread out to tell the good news. And the church has been doing so ever since. The church of Jesus Christ is - and has always been - a missionary church.
