This question needs an answer please.

Let's look at these passages:

Matthew 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
28:17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.
28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

As we can see here Jesus was talking to his Apostles to go out and evangelise. Now, we also know that Jesus also had other disciples (the 72), and other followers (e.g the 5000 he Fed) etc.

Now,Apostles today are pastors, Prophets, evangelist etc??

So what about people who just go to church, or Christians who aren't pastors or evangelists etc,

1.Are they supposed to preach or evangelise the gospel like Jesus said?

2.As anyone who isn't a pastor or deacon ever done evangelism, etc, preaching to people on the streets, house to house, Bus evangelism


Please help with your experience, and also with scripture if possible to show that Jesus was talking to all believers( not only pastors etc), about evangelizing.

Lol.. bro, we are supposed to preach in the bus, do morning cry, talk to people on the road etc?

I was thinking this is for Pastor or evangelists alone, what if I'm an usher or choir member etc, do I need to still preach the word?
