raises the point that Paul preached the whole counsel of God to the Ephesians so as not to be guilty of their blood. I thought I'd go back to the great commisson in Matthew 28:19-20:
"19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (NIV)
If we think our job is done if we manage to make a few converts from preaching the gospel then we're sorely mistaken. Making disciples takes more committment than that.
