To spread The Good News

Jesus Christ set the example in performing the ministry. He preached everywhere, in the cities and villages, in homes and in public places, even to a woman at a wellside. A true Christian today will follow Jesus’ example. He will preach at every opportunity. He will not simply wait for people to come to him, but he will endeavor to seek out persons with a listening ear. “Go,” Jesus commanded, “make disciples of people of all the nations.” (Matthew 28:19) This command applies to all Christians, laborers and housewives, elderly persons and youths, even as it did in the first century.
He prophesied: “This good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.” So, to share in preaching this good news of the Kingdom is certainly an important part of doing God's work today. Jesus further commanded his early disciples: “Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you.” (Matt. 28:19, 20) Christians not only must preach, but also must teach people what they themselves have been taught. They should help others to do the things Jesus himself commanded his original apostles and disciples to do.

He wanted them to share the Gospel with the world (everyone). Since they had been with Jesus, who better than to share the message of Christ with the world, making disciples of one another. We too, are called to do just that.

Jesus told His disciples to travel around the globe to spread the good news about God's love for humanity. As they were going, wherever they were going, they were to make disciples. The message of God's love and redemption was not for the Jewish people alone, but for all of God's children, Jewish or Gentile.
That is why He told them to go...

God chose man as the vehicle to spread His Gospel. He told them to go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

To heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out devils
to bring all to repentance of dead works to the living waters of life that flows freely to all those that believe, to Baptize them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
He said freely you have received freely give to others what you have
